Just pulled post-cycle bloods after 16 weeks including 6 weeks of winstrol at 40mg. HDL dropped to 28. LDL went to 145. Not catastrophic but not where I want to be either. Running 4g fish oil daily now and three cardio sessions per week. Question for guys who have been tracking this for years - how long before lipids actually return to your personal baseline after a winny-heavy blast? Not looking for worst case scenarios, looking for real data.

Fish oil 4g daily throughout the blast is something I do regardless of what orals are in the stack. The lipid protection it provides is worth the cost. Running it during recovery as well based on what the bloodwork shows.
