Testosterone Propionate – Side Effects

Propionate – the most “short-lived” of testosterone esters. Before we talk about the features of the drug, remember this. As you must have not forgotten to activate the testosterone ester, ether should be removed from the chain of 17 positions and put in its place hydroxyl group. That is, to transform testosterone ester in a normal testosterone. This transformation, in fact, takes place by admission of the molecules of testosterone in the aqueous

Wednesday is the way our blood. The conclusion from this seemingly obvious: our body does not matter which of testosterone esters was put into it – he still turns to normal testosterone and only then begins to act. In fact this is not true. But about all in order.

Testosterone propionate is not particularly willing to use in the “massonabornyh” cycles. The main reason – psychological, use of this drug when working “in mass” requires daily and thus very bulky, due to the low end of the active ingredient in solution injection. The low concentration of active ingredient in the solution leads to another trouble – a drug is less effective than its more “concentrated” counterparts. In the case of testosterone propionate in producing mainly a concentration of 50 mg / ml, its effectiveness is 1.5-1.7 times lower than that of, for example, testosterone enanthate, its concentration is 250 mg / ml. The essential difference, although recently appeared in our market veterinary medicine – Testolone, containing the active substance testosterone propionate at a concentration of radio 200 mg / ml. It was his and should be used when working “in the mass” – judging by the first reviews of its application, Testolone can be called a “breakthrough” drug simply outstanding.

Another reason – the higher cost of testosterone propionate (if we take the same amount of drug) as compared with testosterone enanthate, or Sustanon, especially omnadrenom. But during the set weight are required, as a rule, higher doses of AAS. And finally – the pharmacokinetics of the drug. The sharp release of testosterone propionate in the blood leads to increased synthesis of binding globulin sex hormone (SHBG). As a result, in the case of propionate ester free testosterone in the blood is somewhat less than when using a “long-lived” esters.

Testosterone propionate, unlike testosterone enanthate, may be used during the “drying”, however, there need to have some experience to use the drug correctly. Need not descend into a dosage formulation below a certain level, in order not to reduce its effectiveness in maintaining lean body mass and a body fat burning. But you can not exceed a certain level – followed immediately starts water retention under the skin. What should be the dose? That you will not tell no one, no one can substitute your own experience. Therefore, it is believed that the use of testosterone propionate “drying” – the inheritance only experienced athletes.

Side effects

For the reasons given above, the side effects of testosterone propionate less pronounced than that of testosterone enanthate. Although, in general, it’s all the same traditional “pobochki” testosterone.

Dosages

The usual dose of testosterone propionate – 50-100 mg daily. Daily injections are more preferred than injections every other day. Anyone who wants to use the drug at work in the mass could increase the amount of daily injections of 200-300 mg. Better use with veterinary medicines, which kontratsiya active substance up to 200 mg / ml. Combination with other drugs

When working “on weight” testosterone propionate is combined with the same agents as the testosterone enanthate. During the period of “drying” partners testosterone propionate can be stanozolol, drostanolone, trenbolone, with some reservations oxandrolone or fluoxymesterone.

The use of women

Testosterone propionate is possible, with some reservations, recommended for use in women. Unlike men, the fair sex have to inject much less often – every 4-6 days. The usual volume of one injection – 25-50 mg. When an injection of virilization phenomena cease immediately.
