I'm going to preface the following questions with the fact that I am NOT intending to run a testosterone-less cycle but am merely trying to better understand the effects of such cycles on the HPTA system. Moreover, for the sake of simplicity I'm not going to discuss including AIs or other ancillaries in cycles.
Test Only Cycle: It's easy and intuitive to understand that if one were to run a test only cycle their body reacts but shutting down endogenous test production since there is ample exogenous test floating around. Specifically, the massive amounts of exogenous test causes the hypothalamus to stop producing GnRH, which in turn stops FSH and LH production, which in turn shuts down test production. I get that.
Non-test AAS and Test-less Cycles: However, what effects do non-test AAS and consequently test-less cycles have on the HPTA system? For instance, if one were to take only d-bol without test for 6 weeks what would happen to their testosterone blood serum levels?
Based on what I've read it appears that non-test AAS still shut down endogenous test production but do NOT satisfy the body's need for testosterone, and thus a supplementary amount of exogenous test (e.g., at least 150 mg/wk) is needed to "maintain normal bodily functions." I don't quite understand why the body would react like that. For example, if taking d-bol, winstrol, or anavar all by itself without test causes the body to shut down endogenous test production it only makes sense that these compounds, which are derivatives of test itself, would also replace the need for testosterone in the body. It seems odd that the body would get duped into thinking there's plenty of test floating around in the system causing it to cease natural test production but in reality the non-test AAS don't provide the same functionality as test for the body's purposes.
Any help understanding these processes would be much appreciated!
