Deca Durabolin-nandrolone decanoate

deca durabolin, for horses
Although nandrolone decanoate is still contained in many generic
compounds, almost every athlete connects this substance with Deca
Durabolin. Organon introduced Deca Durabolin during the early 1 960's
as an injectable steroid available in various strengths. Most common
are 50 mg/ml and 100 mg/ml. Deca Durabolin is the most widespread and
most commonly used injectable steroid.
Deca's large popularity can be attributed to its numerous possible
applications and, for its mostly positive results. It's main
characteristic is clearly defined on the package insert by Organon
GmbH Company: "The distinct anabolic effect of nandrolone decanoate is
mirrorred in the positive nitrogen balance." Nitrogen, in bonded form.
is part of protein. Deca Durabolin causes the muscle cell to store
more nitrogen than it releases so that a positive nitrogen balance is
achieved. A positive nitrogen balance is synonymous with muscle growth
since the muscle cell, in this phase, assimilates (accumulates) a
larger amount of protein than usual. The same manufacturer, however,
points out on the package insert that a positive nitrogen balance and
the protein building effect that accompany it will occur only if
enough calories and proteins are supplied. One should know this since,
otherwise, satisfying results with Deca Durabolin cannot be obtained.
The highly anabolic effect of Deca Durabolin is linked to a moderately
androgenic component, so that a good gain in muscle mass and strength
is obtained. At the same time, most athletes notice considerable water
retention which, no doubt, is not as distinct as that with injectable
testosterones but which in high doses can also cause a smooth and
watery appearance. Since Deca Durabolin also stores more water in the
connective tissues, it can temporarily ease or even cure existing pain
in joints. This is especially good for those athletes who complain
about pain in the shoulder, elbow, and knee; they can often enjoy
pain-free workouts during treatment while using Deca Durabolin.
Another reason for this is that it blocks the cortisone receptors.
thus allowing less cortisone to reach the muscle cells and the
connective tissue cells. Athletes use Deca, depending on their needs,
for muscle buildup and in preparation for a competition.
Deca Durabolin is suitable, even above average, to develop muscle mass
since it promotes the protein synthesis and simultaneously leads to
water retention. The optimal dose for this purpose lies between 200
and 600 mg/week. Scientific research has shown that best results can
be obtained by the intake of 2 mg/pound body weight. Those who take a
dose of less than 200 mg/week will usually feel only a very light
anabolic effect which, however, increases with a higher dosage. The
anabolic and consequent buildup effect of Deca Durabolin, up to a
certain degree, depends on the dosage. In the range of approx. 200 to
600 mg/week, the anabolic effect increases almost proportionately to
the dosage increase. If more than 600 mg/week are administered, the
relationship of the positive to the negative effects shifts in favor
of the latter. In addition, at a dosage level above 600 mg/week, the
anabolic effect no longer increases proportionately to the dosage
increase, so that 1000 mg/week do not guarantee significantly better
results than 600 mg/week. Most male athletes experience good results
by taking 400 mg/week. Steroid novices usually need only 200 mg/week.
Deca Durabolin works very well for muscle buildup when combined with
Dianabol (D-bol) and Testoviron Depot. The famous Dianabol
(D-bol)/Deca stack results in a a fast and strong gain in muscle mass.
Most athletes usually take 15-40 mg Dianabol (D-bol)/day and 200-400
mg Deca/week. Even faster results can be achieved with 400 mg
Deca/week and 500 mg Sustanon/week. Athletes report an enormous gain
in strength and muscle mass when taking 400 mg Deca/week, 500 mg
Sustanon/week, and 30 mg Dianabol (D-bol)/day. Deca is a good basic
steroid which, for muscle buildup, can be combined with many other
steroids.
Although Deca is not an optimal steroid when preparing for a
competition, many athletes also achieve good results during this
phase. Since Deca Durabolin is a long-term anabolic, there is risk
that with a higher dosage, the competing athlete will retain too much
water. A conversion into estrogen, that means an aromatizing process,
is possible with Deca-Durabolin but usually occurs only at a dose of
400 mg/week. During competitions with doping tests Deca must not be
taken since the metabolites in the body can be proven in a urine
analysis up to 18 months later. Those who do not fear testing can use
Deca as a high-anabolic basic compound in a dosage of 400 mg/week. The
androgens contained in 400 mg/week also help to accelerate the body's
regeneration. The risk of potential water retention and aromatizing to
estrogen can be successfully prevented by combining the use of
Proviron with Nolvadex. A preparatory stack often observed in
competing athletes includes 400 mg/week Deca-Durabolin, 50 mg/day
Winstrol, 228 mg/week Parabolan, and 25 mg/day Anavar.
Although the side effects with Deca Durabolin are relatively low with
dosages of 400 mg/week, androgenic-caused side effects can occur. Most
problems manifest themselves in high blood pressure and a prolonged
time for blood clotting, which can cause frequent nasal bleeding and
prolonged bleeding of cuts, as well as increased production of the
sebaceous gland and occasional acne. Some athletes also report
headaches and sexual overstimulation. When very high dosages are taken
over a prolonged period, spermatogencsis can be inhibited in men, i.e
the testes produce less testosterone. The reason is that Deca
Durabolin, like almost all steroids, inhibits the release of
gonadotropin from the hypophysis.
Women with a dosage of up to 100 mg/week usually experience no major
problems with Deca Durabolin. At higher dosages androgenic-caused
virilization symptoms can occur, including deep voice (irreversible),
increased growth of body hair, acne, increased libido, and possibly
clitorishypertrophy. Since most female athletes get on well with Deca
Durabolin a dose of Deca 50 mg+/week is usually combined with Anavar
10 mg+/day. Both compounds, when taken in a low dosage, are only
slightly androgenic so that masculinizing side effects only rarely
occur. Deca, through its increased protein synthesis, also leads to a
net muscle gain and Anavar, based on the increased phosphocreatine
synthesis, leads to a measurable strength gain with very low water
retention. Other variations of administration used by female athletes
are Deca Durabolin and Winstrol tablets, as well as Deca Durabolin and
Primobolan S-tablets. Since Deca Durabolin has no negative effects on
the liver it can even be used by persons with liver diseases. Exams
have shown that a combined application of Dianabol / Deca Durabolin
increases the liver values which, however, return to normal upon
discontinuance of the 17-alpha alkylated Dianabol and continued
administration of Deca Durabolin. Even a treatment period with Deca
Durabolin over several years could not reveal a damage to the liver.
For this reason Deca Durabolin combines well with Andriol (240-280
mg/day) since Andriol is not broken down through the liver and thus
the liver function is not influenced either. Older and more cautious
steroid users, in particular, like this combination.
A great disadvantage of Deca Durabolin is its high price. In the U.S.
a 50 nag ampule costs approx. $10 - 12. In a catalog of a large
American pharamaceutical company the 50 mg ampules are offered at
$11.79. A 200 mg/ml ampule costs $19.49. Since the weekly dose is
around 200-400 mg/week, treatment can become very expensive. On the
black market, one can especially Find the Dutch and Greek Deca
Durabolin in strengths of 200 mg/2 ml ampules, they usually cost
around $30 per ampule. Those who have access to the generic Greek 50
mg products such as Anaboline, Ziremilon, or Extraboline, receive a
product of equally good quality at a slightly lower price. We doubt
whether the Russian Retabolin and the Hungarian Retabolil are of good
quality. At least from the standpoint of their price these products
are very interesting. Because of its great popularity and the high
demand that goes along with it, there are many fakes of Deca
Durabolin. Some of the most popular include the brown 10 m/injection
vial "Nandrolone Decanoate" by International Pharmaceuticals and the
30 ml and 50 ml brown glass vials supposedly by the manufacturer
"National Products CA-U.S." Also, Deca fakes are mostly sold in brown
and white 2ml glass ampules with supposedly 100 mg/ml. In Europe,
original Deca Durabolin is never sold in a glass ampule or vial with
more than 2ml injection solution. The ampules and vials by Organon
Company all come with an adhesive label or sticker and no simple stamp
imprint which, as on most fakes, is directly placed on the glass. If
somebody offers you individual ampules without its appertaining
packaging you should be very skeptical about the compound (and
salesperson). The drug "Nandrolone Decanoate" by International
Pharmaceuticals comes with an adhesive label on the 10 ml vial is
individually packaged, but it is still a fake. There are also several
fakes of the Dutch Deca Durabolin "100" by Organon Company. It is
relatively easy to recognize the original since it comes in a
prickthrough ampule with a red cap. The Greek Deca Durabolin is bought
by dealers on Crete in large quantities with little difficulty, since
Crete receives a certain yearly allotment from the Greek mainland. Its
subsidy by the government allows for a low price. The Mexican Deca
unfortunately is manufactured only in a 50 mg version which means
quite voluminous injections for its user. Since it is not as simple to
imitate the Redi-ject versions one can assume that he or she is
dealing with an original Deca compound if it originated in Mexico.
There are always two Redi-ject injections in one original package. The
ampules by Organon are of brown glass, with an aluminum cap and a
white label with blue and black print. deca durabolin The probability
of receiving an original Mexican Deca is very low.

DecaDurabolin by Bill Roberts - This drug is unique (so far as I
know) in that 5a -reductase, the enzyme which converts testosterone
to the more-potent DHT, actually converts nandrolone to a
less-potent compound. Therefore this AAS is somewhat deactivated in
the skin, scalp, and prostate, and these tissues experience an
effectively-lower androgen level than the rest of the body.
Therefore, for the same amount of activity as another drug at the
androgen receptors (ARs) in muscle tissue, Deca gives less activity
in the scalp, skin, and prostate. Thus, it is the best choice for
those particularly concerned with these things.
Its effectiveness at the androgen receptor of muscle tissue is
superior to that of testosterone: it binds better. Yet, it gives
only about half the muscle-building results per milligram. This I
think is a result of its being less effective or entirely
ineffective in non-AR-mediated mechanisms for muscle growth.
It also appears less effective or entirely ineffective in activity
on nerve cells, certainly on the nerve cells responsible for
erectile function. Use of Deca as the sole AAS often results in
complete inability to perform sexually.
These problems can be solved by combining with a drug that does
supply the missing activity: e.g. testosterone.
Nandrolone is proven to be a progestin. This fact is of clear
importance in bodybuilding, because while moderate Deca-only use
actually lowers estrogen levels as a consequence of reducing
natural testosterone levels and thus allowing the aromatase enzyme
less substrate to work with, Deca nonetheless can cause gyno in
some individuals. Furthermore, just as progesterone will to a point
increase sex drive in women, and then often decrease it as levels
get too high, high levels of progestogenic steroids can kill sex
drive in male bodybuilders, though there is a great deal of
individual variability as to what is too much.
Incidentally, this progestogenic activity also inhibits LH
production, and contrary to common belief, even small amounts of
Deca are quite inhibitory, approximately as much so as the same
amount of testosterone.
To some extent, nandrolone aromatizes to estrogen, and it does not
appear that this can be entirely blocked by use of aromatase
inhibitors indeed, aromatase may not be involved at all in this
process (there is no evidence in humans that such occurs) with the
enzyme CYP 2C11 being in my opinion the more likely candidate for
this activity. In any case, Cytadren, an aromatase inhibitor, has
not been found effective in avoiding aromatization of nandrolone.
The drug is moderately effective at doses of 400 mg/week. The long
half-life of Deca-Durabolin makes it unsuited to short alternating
cycles, but suitable for more traditional cycles, with a built-in
self-tapering effect in the weeks following the last injection.
