Nandrolone Phenylpropionate ampoules
10 x 1 ml 100mg/ml
Nandrolone, chemically termed as 19-nortestosterone, is an anabolic steroid detected in humans post prolonged physical activities or during pregnancy. Its chief metabolite, 19-norandrosterone, is present in urine but in extremely minute concentrations.
From a structural perspective, nandrolone is distinct from testosterone due to the absence of a carbon atom at the 19th position. This configuration renders it similar to progestins. This similarity results in nandrolone demonstrating substantially reduced androgenic effects compared to testosterone. However, its ability to stabilize progesterone receptors triggers unique side effects.
Contrasting with testosterone, which is transformed into a potent androgen - dihydrotestosterone (DHT) by the 5-alpha reductase enzyme, nandrolone metamorphoses into a very mild androgen, dihydronandrolone. This characteristic makes it favorable for male athletes with prostate issues.
Owing to its low androgenic activity, side effects like acne, hair loss, or body hair growth are rare with nandrolone. These effects, although infrequent, can manifest if recommended doses are significantly surpassed.
Nandrolone's conversion to estrogens is notably lower than testosterone. This ensures minimal estrogenic side effects such as gynecomastia or fluid retention. Only at very high doses does nandrolone exhibit estrogenic activity.
Therapeutic and Anabolic Effects:
- Remarkable muscle growth with potential gains of up to 8 kg per cycle, with minimal muscle loss post cessation.
- Enhanced bone strength, making it useful for osteoporosis treatment.
- Advanced skin regeneration and increased collagen synthesis.
- Relief from joint pain due to heightened synovial fluid production.
- Increased red blood cell count, leading to optimized oxygen transport and improved endurance.
- Immune system reinforcement, beneficial for AIDS patients.
- Estradiol conversion without the aromatase enzyme.
- Enhanced absorption of amino acids and other essential nutrients in the intestines.
Potential Side Effects:
Nandrolone's ability to bind with progestin receptors results in increased prolactin production and suppressed secretion of gonadotropic hormones. Elevated prolactin levels can lead to reduced testosterone production. Other side effects include minor fat deposition and occasionally, gynecomastia. Some users might also experience high blood pressure, abdominal discomfort, mood fluctuations, consistent headaches, and depressive episodes. Rarer side effects encompass severe headaches, significant back pain, and gynecomastia.
Dosage Guidelines:
- For elderly patients: To counteract joint pain or strengthen bones - 50-150 mg weekly for 5-10 weeks.
- For anabolic purposes: Generally, 200-800 mg weekly. A typical regimen would involve 400 mg of nandrolone coupled with 500 mg of testosterone weekly.
Pharmacokinetic Profile:
- Half-life: Approximately 2-4 days
- Administration: Typically twice a week.
Decanoate is suitable for extended bulking cycles, often ranging from 8-10 weeks. Experienced athletes might prolong this to six months, incrementally adjusting the dosage. For novices, a maximum of 8 weeks without supplementary medications is recommended. For longer cycles, the addition of chorionic gonadotropin is often suggested.
