Post Cycle Therapy (PCT)

Post Cycle Therapy (PCT) is a recovery process used after completing a cycle of anabolic steroids or performance-enhancing drugs. Its main purpose is to restore the body’s natural hormone production, particularly testosterone, which often becomes suppressed during steroid use. PCT typically involves medications like selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) and aromatase inhibitors (AIs) to block estrogen buildup and stimulate testosterone production. It also helps to prevent muscle loss, reduce side effects like fatigue or depression, and protect long-term hormonal balance. A properly planned PCT can last 4 to 6 weeks, depending on the steroid cycle length and intensity. Medical supervision and regular hormone level monitoring ensure effective recovery and reduce health risks.
