Hi folks,
This is my first experience with any type of SARM. What led me down this path is that over the past few years, my body seems to be fighting attempts to maintain muscle and instead wants to add belly fat. I believe this is somewhat normal due to natural decline in testosterone, but as someone who has always been lean and muscular, it bothered me enough to take a chance on SARMS (I'm not willing to do any injectables).
I am using a RAD-140 solution (10 mg/mL in PEG/ethanol solution). After the first dose (1 mL/day in the evening), I experienced an unexpected side-effect based on what I've read from others' experiences. Within two hours, my prostate felt like it does when i take yohimbine (which I don't take often). Basically, it feels like it enlarges for about 12 hours. This occurred after every dose the following days as well. I've stopped at 4 doses.
Another potential side-effect I'm seeing after my 4th dose is my vision seems to be very slightly blurred. I have had perfect vision my whole life, so that's concerning as well. However, the vision issue is continuous/doesn't go away, so I can't immediately connect it to taking a dose.
I'm posting in hopes that someone else may recognize the symptoms as expected or not. Thanks!
