Anything I can do to deal with facial bloat on blast?

[trenisbest]

I upped my Test from 250mg Test P to 1g a week for my blast till Dec/Jan. No high e sides or anything. My weight increased about 13lbs, all water weight (excluding any weight form the increase in carb intake). Feels like it went all straight to the face (face was chiseled prior to blast). I usually just deal with it on the blast until I lower back to 250mg and cut again, but is there anything I can do to get rid of the bloat that decided to go straight to my face?

No bloodwork... right?

High Test will cause mineral retention regardless of how perfect your bloods work is or if you have e2 in check.

That's a lazy excuse for not getting bloods. Could be this, could be that.... or it could be high e2 conversion from running a gram. Just get bloods and find out.

Eplerenone+ amiloride under electrolytes control.
Keep e2 in check too (I get bloated on ly calves when e2 is higher than 100pg/mL)

1g of test p? Do you pin daily?

yea. i have the least issues on it and can push higher without needing ai.

why not just take a look where you have your estrogen, use ai to manage it and remove face bloat?

Cause 1gram, brah!

Lasix

 

[beorn777]

Sometimes just staying on the dose and letting your body settle will have you flush some of the water eventually but besides being very lean I find not much you can do with a little facial bloat on test / some orals.

so do u just deal with it during blasts until dropping back down to dose where you had no facial bloat?

Or try and AI . I always keep arimidex on hand and it's worked for me

Lasix

Do you run lasix over the course of an entire blast ?

Fck AI's They're dangerous. Take some diuretics..lol.

You're at 1gr of test without AI, without knowing where your e2 is and you wanna know what to do to remove bloating?

Is there some kind of magic I'm not aware of? Also, yes.. high test will lead to mineral retention. It's not something new. I guess you knew it before you start this protocol, so what now?

Just take another gram of mast and you'll be fine. It's the best ped for looksmaxxers.

facial bloat...increase in carb intake

BB never wants to talk about insulin edema.

one of the single worst drug id you don’t want to send your hair follicles to valhalla and deteriorate your skin quality and elastin.

but yeah it will dry you out

without knowing where your e2 is and you wanna know what to do to remove bloating?

as you said hugh test will cause mineral retention anyway, so even if i lower e2 it won’t fully resolve.

guess its either diuretic while blasting or just just stick it out with the bloat until i drop back down to a cruise

It dried me up so much my joints were cranky af. I don't care much about hair, I'm already fckd up and soon to be with a shaved head, but yeah.. doubt I'll use it again. Also it skewed my electrolyte balance from water excretion and ended up with daily cramps and muscle spasm.

I wouldn't mess with diuretics for that reason, I find it dumb TBH but you do you. You can still minimise bloating with having your e2 in check and simply have a normal amount of water retention from test instead of deploying such a harsh drug when it's not really needed.

Yeah no i wont be using any diuretics.

I don’t like using AI personally, you also mentioned your dislike for it. I could use eq, but I don’t have any other high e sides, and I don’t mind letting e2 rise a little higher.

deploying such a harsh drug when it's not really needed.

I’ll use nothing most likely and just deal with it until I drop the dose down and everything will resolve on its own. As you said, no point deploying harsh drugs for a temporary issue.

A very low dose diuretic helps me sometimes but it remains occasional, it also takes time for everything to stabilize and check the e2 but I have never done it that high in tests
