Description
What is Blackstone Labs PCT V?
Blackstone Labs PCT V is a post cycle therapy (PCT) and cycle support supplement built around 37.5 mg of Arimistane (androsta-3,5-diene-7,17-dione) per capsule, an aromatase inhibitor, paired with 250 mg Tribulus Terrestris, 160 mg Saw Palmetto, 125 mg N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) and 25 mg 5-alpha-hydroxy Laxogenin. It is made for men coming off a prohormone or hormonal cycle (Chosen1, Abnormal, Brutal 4ce, SuperStrol-7) who want to restore natural testosterone, control estrogen rebound, protect the liver and hold on to the muscle they built†. PCT V is not a prohormone and contains no hormones; it is a cycle support product. Each bottle holds 60 capsules, a 30-day supply at the label dose of 2 capsules a day, and sells for $49.99 at Tiger Fitness, about $1.67 per day. PCT V is rated 4.9 out of 5 by 37 verified buyers.

How PCT V works
After a hormonal cycle, natural testosterone output is suppressed and estrogen can rebound as the body tries to find balance again. PCT V attacks that problem from five angles at once. Arimistane is a suicide aromatase inhibitor, which means it binds permanently to the aromatase enzyme so less testosterone gets converted to estrogen, helping keep water retention and gyno risk down while testosterone recovers†. Tribulus Terrestris is included to support luteinizing hormone (LH), the signal that tells the testes to start producing testosterone again, and to help manage cortisol†. Saw Palmetto limits the conversion of testosterone to DHT, which is the mechanism behind cycle-related hair shedding and prostate stress†. NAC raises glutathione, the body's main antioxidant, and supports liver function after oral compounds†. 5-alpha-hydroxy Laxogenin, a plant-derived brassinosteroid, supports protein synthesis and nitrogen retention so you keep the size and strength you gained while hormone levels normalize†.
- Five-way formula: estrogen control, testosterone support, DHT and hair protection, liver support and anti-catabolic muscle retention in one capsule
- Arimistane dosed at 75 mg per day, the amount most standalone Arimistane products use
- Split AM/PM dosing keeps blood levels of the aromatase inhibitor steady across the day
- Non-hormonal, so it does not need its own PCT and can be run by natural athletes as an estrogen-control test booster†
Benefits users report
- Keeps strength and size gained on cycle through the recovery month†
- Helps bring back natural testosterone, energy and libido after a prohormone cycle†
- Controls estrogen rebound, bloat and gyno symptoms after a cycle†
- Drier, harder look while taking it, even when used standalone†
- Saw Palmetto support for hair and prostate during and after a cycle†
- Liver and antioxidant support from NAC after oral compounds†
- Reviewers on Tiger Fitness consistently call it the easiest PCT to run; two small capsules a day with no stomach upset
How to take PCT V
As a dietary supplement, take 1 capsule in the morning and 1 capsule in the evening. Do not exceed 2 capsules daily. Store in a cool, dry place away from light. Start PCT V the day after your last dose of a prohormone or hormonal muscle builder and run the full 30-day bottle. For a 4-week cycle, one bottle of PCT V covers the entire post cycle window. For 6 to 8 week cycles or stacked compounds, many users run PCT V for the full 4 weeks and add Blackstone Labs Gear Support during the cycle itself. Most reviewers say energy and libido start climbing back within the first 1 to 2 weeks and the dry, hard look is noticeable by week 2. Natural lifters using PCT V as a standalone test support product typically run it 4 to 8 weeks, then take 4 weeks off.
Stacks well with
- Blackstone Labs Gear Support for on-cycle liver, blood pressure and cholesterol support, then switch to PCT V the day the cycle ends
- Chosen1 (1-DHEA), Abnormal (19-Nor-DHEA) and Brutal 4ce (4-DHEA), the Blackstone prohormones PCT V is designed to follow
- Halo Elite, a non-hormonal plant androgen that can be run alongside PCT V to help bridge the gap between cycles

PCT V side effects and warnings
PCT V is non-hormonal and is generally well tolerated. Because Arimistane lowers estrogen, running it longer than directed or stacking it with another aromatase inhibitor can push estrogen too low, which can show up as joint stiffness, low mood or reduced libido. If that happens, stop and let levels recover. Arimistane is on the WADA prohibited list, so tested athletes should not use this product.

Blackstone Labs PCT V FAQ
Do I need PCT V after Chosen1, Abnormal or Brutal 4ce?
Yes. Chosen1, Abnormal and Brutal 4ce are DHEA-based prohormones that suppress your natural testosterone while you are on them, so a PCT is needed to restart production and control estrogen rebound. PCT V is the post cycle product Blackstone Labs formulated specifically to follow those cycles, and it is sold as part of their stacks for that reason.
How long should I run PCT V?
Run it for 4 weeks (one full 60-capsule bottle at 2 capsules a day) starting the day after your cycle ends. That covers the standard post cycle window for a 4 to 8 week prohormone cycle. Do not extend it beyond directions, since Arimistane can take estrogen lower than you want.
Can PCT V be used as a standalone test booster?
Yes. Because it is non-hormonal, natural lifters use PCT V on its own for the Arimistane estrogen control, Tribulus testosterone support and Laxogenin muscle retention†. Run it 4 to 8 weeks, then take at least 4 weeks off. It does not need its own PCT.
Is PCT V a steroid or a prohormone?
No. PCT V contains no hormones or prohormones. Arimistane is an aromatase inhibitor, not an anabolic compound, and the rest of the formula is herbal and amino acid based.
When should I start PCT V?
Start the day after your last dose of the prohormone. There is no need for a gap, because the DHEA-based compounds in Blackstone cycles clear quickly and you want estrogen control in place as testosterone starts to recover.
Does PCT V contain Arimistane?
Yes, 37.5 mg per capsule and 75 mg per day at the label dose, which is the standard daily dose used in dedicated Arimistane products.
Will PCT V show up on a drug test?
Arimistane is banned by WADA and many sports organizations, and the label warns it can increase the risk of a false positive. Tested athletes should not use PCT V.
Can women take PCT V?
No. PCT V is formulated for adult men, and the label states it is not for women who are pregnant or nursing. Women looking for a natural recovery or test support product should look elsewhere.
What is the difference between Gear Support and PCT V?
Gear Support is an on-cycle organ support product (liver, blood pressure, cholesterol) taken while you are on the prohormone. PCT V is taken after the cycle to restore testosterone and control estrogen. Most Blackstone users run both: Gear Support during, PCT V after.
