    Does Ostarine (MK-2866) shuts you down or not?

    I have been trying to gather as much information as possible about Ostarine and approx 90% of articles say Ostarine will not shut you down because it's not a sex-hormone, but then a few studies seem to indicate that there is a increase in estriadol even at 5mg.

    I was thinking of running 12.5mg for 6 weeks, but the only reason I want ostarine and not AAS is that I don't want to mess with my body's chemistry, but now I am very unsure whether Ostarine really prevent that or not.

    There is not currently a single sarm or steroid that doesn't require pct. Do some research and buy some tamoxifen to go along with every cycle.

    I felt it after a first dose already. Within a few days, I could start noticing muscles growing, but strength increased the very first day for me.

    No results that I could get excited about, apart from holding on to slightly more lean mass during a cut. I guess it's early days for this sarms thing, maybe a sarms stack and a longer cycle. Time will tell!

    45 mg is nearly twice the recommended dosage for a max ostarine cycle and after LGD which is a stronger sarm than ostarine you must have massive suppression.

    I'll get my hormone levels checked to be sure, but I don't feel I have any suppression. I can't really see how I could have suppression. If I had made great gains on this I would suspect that I would have some suppression. 45mg was the suggested dose on the bottle.

    I started to feel effects within a couple days which was a surprise and still same effects with around 7-8 days before I finish the bottle.

    Quick strength increases, energized feeling for the first couple weeks which levelled out. No side effects at single doses of 25mg

    Androgens will shut down natural testosterone and Ostarine is not an exception. This stuff is actually like Natadrol. Definitely, you will need a pct.

    No, it will suppress but won't convert to estrogen.
