			<title><![CDATA[The Best Anti-Estrogen (we discuss: Anastrozole, Exemestane, and Letrozole)]]></title>

			<description><![CDATA[theres been a lot of talk on other boards about this lately, and a lot of bad information thrown out as well. i wanted to share the good info.<br />
<br />
somone keeps posting how letrozole is the strongest and doesnt negatively affect cholesterol. this is not true. letrozole is NOT the strongest and it DOES negative affect cholesterol/lipid profile in a bad way.<br />
<br />
aromasin(exemestane) is the best. this is why<br />
<br />
both arimidex/ldex/anastrozole and femara/letrozole hurt your cholesterol. the way these 2 anti e's work is they inhibit the aromatase enzyme. by inhibiting the enzyme which converts testosterone to estrogen, you reduce or even come close to eliminating estrogen production. we need some estrogen to be healthy. the major drawback to this is without estrogen, your lipid profile gets fucked.<br />
<br />
exemestane works differently. it does not stop the body from producing estrogen. rather, it makes it so the estrogen is unable to bind to receptors by deactivating the binding enzyme. if the estrogen cannot bind, you simply will not get bloated or get gyno. the estrogen is crippled due to exemestane. however, since the estrogen is still floating around, it will not negatively affect your lipid/cholesterol profile.<br />
<br />
anastrozole doesnt cause a rebound effect, and neither does exemestane, but letrozole does. this means after you stop the letrozole, your estrogen rebounds and goes pretty high for a while, eventually it normalizes. you can avoid this by tapering your letro dose down before stopping it, but that is a pain in the ass. higher than normal can mess many things up post cycle when you stop. since the hpta has a feedback loop is primarily controlled by estrogen, high estrogen will tell your hpta to produce less testosterone, because it thinks the high estrogen is caused by too much testosterone. this is fact. now post cycle, dont we want to raise our test levels, not lower them? of course! so rebounds are bad. if you use letro taper the dose off to zero over a couple weeks.<br />
<br />
fyi- nolvadex(tamoxifen) is a SERM(Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator). this means on certain tissue it can act antagonisticaly or agonistically. in the case of lipid profiles, it acts agonistically. so, running tamoxifen with your anti e's will IMPROVE your cholesterol profile even if not on cycle or using any gear or other anti e's. its just plain good for cholesterol.<br />
<br />
one thing to keep in mind though when runing tamoxifen with letro. letro reduces blood levels of tamoxifen by over 50%. a study showed 2.5mg letro ed made nolva levels drop to 40% of what they were before adding letro. this does not mean you cant use tamoxifen with letro, it just means you need to use more, about double. 20mg of nolva will act like 8mg if running letro. so make sure you are aware of this because you will need to buy more nolva to compensate. this does not happen when mixing tamoxifen with anastrozole or exemestane, it only hppens with letro.<br />
<br />
also, many people and myself experince a reduction of libido on letro. this doesnt happen w/ ldex or exmestane as far as i know, and in my own experience, and ive run all 3 quite a bit.<br />
<br />
the best combo IS exemestane and tamoxifen together. your cholesterol will be as good as can be considering your on a cycle of steroids. the dose of aromasin will vary depending on the users needs and how much aromatizing gear is being taken. usually 10-25mg ed works well. run 10mg ed nolva to improve your cholesterol.<br />
<br />
second best combo i feel is anastrozole(ldex) and tamoxifen. ldex dose ranges from usually .15mg ed to 1mg ed. run 10mg nolva ed to improve cholesterol.<br />
<br />
thierd best is letro and nolvadex. letro doses usually range from 1-2.5mg ed. run 20mg ed nolva to improve cholesterol w/ letro.<br />
<br />
you do not need to run nolva with any of these 3, i do recomend it though as it will improve cholesterol compared to using the anti e's alone without nolva.<br />
<br />
so in order of strength, on a dose per dose basis(not mg per mg) aromasin is def the strognest, next is letro, and then ldex.<br />
<br />
ive been running aromasin now for about 4 months, i wont switch back to ldex or letro. it works much better and its much healthier for cholesterol profiles.<br />
<br />
i think we all need to stop only worrying about side effects that we can see visually. cholesterol KILLS many people around the world everyday(well not directly kills but leads to it). steroids are hrting us badly in this sense. steroids do mess our cholesterol up pretty badly, and we will pay for it later in life. now not many of us are going to stop using gear because of that, but we should at least take the proper other drugs to help minimize.<br />
<br />
aromasin is only a little bit more expensive than ldex or letro, and its actually about the same price as many places sell ldex or letro for. but its more powerful and healthier. people spend money all the time on steroids which dont have as many side effects as some of the harsher, cheaper steroids. a few extra bucks for the proper anti e's is def money well spent. <br />

<br />
    My Secrets to Clear Skin Part 2[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
  [SIZE="3"]  October 17, 2015 By John Doe<br />
<br />
<br />
   [SIZE="3"] I place a lot of emphasis on my skin as well as my muscles.<br />
<br />
    It sucks to have a large and muscular physique, just to be embarrassed to show it off because of shitty skin.<br />
<br />
    Diet and cleansing play a role in clear skin, but most of the negative issues we face with skin are really due to hormone levels in the body. This is the #1 reason why you experience acne outbreaks as a teenager more than an adult.<br />
<br />
    Guys using steroids often face severe acne outbreaks on their shoulders and back, and this is usually worse when they discontinue use and go into recovery mode.<br />
[/SIZE]<br />
    [SIZE="3"]Some of the things they use for recovery can make it even worse than using nothing at all.<br />
<br />
    Itâs really a double edged sword here: on one hand, recovery drugs will help your body produce itâs own testosterone again much faster.<br />
<br />
    While on the other hand, because youâre introducing an abundance of female hormones to get your own body to counteract it by making itâs own testosterone again, youâre often faced with acne as a side effect.[/SIZE]<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="4"][COLOR="Blue"]<br />
    The biggest culprit of acne is the dreaded âestrogen rebound effectâ.[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
    [SIZE="3"]This happens when you discontinue either a cycle of steroids or EVEN SOME SUPPLEMENTS THAT REQUIRE A POST CYCLE THERAPY REGIMEN.<br />
<br />
    The biggest protocol here is to stay on some sort of aromatase inhibitor such as Arimidex or Aromasin throughout post cycle therapy, in order to keep estrogen levels at bay.<br />
<br />
    Itâs also not a bad idea to include these throughout the cycle, because almost any time testosterone levels go up, so do estrogen levels.[/SIZE]<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="4"][COLOR="Blue"]<br />
    <span style="font-size: 3pt;" class="mycode_size">The key is to keep testosterone high and estrogen in normal range (low normal is even better).[/COLOR]</span></span><br />
<br />
    If you need a good post cycle therapy regimen and you donât have access to aromatase inhibitors (drugs that prevent estrogen conversion) such as Arimidex or Aromasin, then my next option would be Post Cycle 3x by Vital Labs paired up with Osta Shred.<br />
<br />
    The Osta Shred has Arimistane included in it, and itâs a decent dosage that will prevent estrogen conversion and also reduce circulating levels of elevated estrogen.<br />
<br />
    Arimistane definitely works and will keep you much dryer and harder looking by keeping estrogen out of the picture.<br />
<br />
    While Post Cycle 3x has 800mg/dose of Trans-Resveratrol included in it, I just donât know of any conclusive studies showing this ingredient REDUCES already circulating estrogen levels rather than just blocking the formation of estrogen.<br />
<br />
    If it were myself I would pair this product with Osta Shred as a safeguard since the Arimistane in Osta Shred will surely reduce already circulating levels of estrogen.<br />
<br />
    Not only that, but youâre still getting a decent performance based effect out of the supplement during PCT, and usually during PCT most guys crash and training goes to shit!!<br />
<br />
    Osta Shred is also a product that doesnât require a PCT if only used for 4 weeks, so I see no harm in taking this DURING A PCT.<br />
[/SIZE]<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="4"][COLOR="Blue"]<br />
    MOST GUYS DEVELOP GYNECOMASTIA DURING PCT, NOT ON CYCLE!![/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
    [SIZE="3"]Guys want to know if they can use anything to get an edge while coming off cycle and in their down time.<br />
<br />
    Osta Shred during PCT and Post Cycle 3x would be my answer as far as the supplement route goes.<br />
<br />
    Normal PCT is usually around 4 weeks.<br />
<br />
    I would personally run the Osta Shred out during the entire PCT (about 4 weeks total).<br />
<br />
    One bottle of each product should be enough to get you 4 weeks for post cycle therapy.[/SIZE]<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="4"][COLOR="Blue"]<br />
    BUT I THOUGHT THIS ARTICLE WAS ABOUT CLEAR SKIN?[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
    [SIZE="3"]This article is most certainly about clear skin, but if I didnât address the biggest issue with skin first, then this article would hold no value!!<br />
<br />
    The faster we can get hormone production back to normal and in the right ratio, the faster your skin is going to clear up!!<br />
<br />
    So what can you do in the meantime before you get any other products?<br />
[/SIZE]<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="4"][COLOR="Blue"]<br />
    10 NATURAL STEPS FOR CLEAR SKIN.[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><br />
    [SIZE="3"]#1- Start rubbing deodorant on your acne before bed at night, this will help dry it out.<br />
<br />
    #2- Start using Dawn liquid dish soap to wash yourself with.</span><br />
<br />
    This will help cut oil better, and since your sebaceous glands are going nuts producing excess oil, itâs a wise idea to use something stronger such as dishwashing soap to shower with.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><br />
    #3- Try to shower twice/day, morning and evening.<br />
<br />
    #4- Stop wearing tank tops for now.</span><br />
<br />
    By wearing a tank top, your sweat and oil just sits there on your body and isnât absorbed by anything. A T-shirt is the better route to go here, since at least the fabric will soak up more of the oils/sweat on your body.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><br />
    #5- Start using pantothenic acid (vitamin B-5).</span><br />
<br />
    Pantothenic acid works by increasing the rate of oil breakdown, so not as much oil = not as much acne. 500mg/day is a good starting point for dosing, and once acne begins clearing up I would drop to 250mg/day and carry on for an additional month.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><br />
    #6- Try to clean up your diet.</span><br />
<br />
    While diet is a very small portion of acne issues, it does play some role. I would try eating more whole, natural foods (any food that spoils if not eaten within a few days, and isnât in an air sealed bag). And I would eliminate dairy products altogether. I can remember a long time ago when I tried the âgallon of milk per dayâ routine to try to gain mass, my acne got terrible. So I can definitely attest to this myself!!!<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><br />
    #7- Avoid sweating.</span><br />
<br />
    This one is difficult because without the gym youâd rather die right? I would suggest avoiding any type of intensity that is going to cause you to sweat excessively. For example, if you normally hit your cardio for a hard 30 minutes, maybe adjust to a slower paced 45 minutes, at least until your skin clears up.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><br />
    #8- Seek out a dermatologist and be honest with themâ¦sort of.</span><br />
<br />
    I would tell them that my acne was caused by a product I purchased from the vitamin store (think of a pro-hormone here) because if you get an asshole who jots down âPatient took 1,000mg/wk of testosterone and has severe acne,â I would be afraid insurance wouldnât cover it if they looked into it. If you have access to a dermatologist and the financial means/insurance to do so, then definitely DO NOT WAIT. You donât want permanent scars for the rest of your life because you didnât address skin issues early on.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><br />
    #9- Use an exfoliant a few times/week to clear off the outer layer of dead skin.</span><br />
<br />
    On top of using your dishwashing liquid soap, itâs not a bad idea to at least use an exfoliant a few times/week to clear off the outer layer so the soaps/products can get down in there deeper. Any cheap exfoliant will work, they all pretty much operate on the same mechanism of providing some sort of gritty base to abrade the skin and clear off the dead cells. Use this on your face as well as shoulders, and if you can get someone to scrub your back, then do that as well.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><br />
    #10- Use products that promote lower estrogen levelsâ¦</span><br />
<br />
    â¦and get your hormones back into normal range (or products that hold estrogen at bay) while on a cycle or EVEN SOME SUPPLEMENT CYCLES!!<br />
<br />
    As long as hormones stay fucked up, so will acne!!! The trick is to provide a steady hormone ratio the entire time.[/SIZE]<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="4"][COLOR="Blue"]<br />
    EVEN WITH THE BEST PREVENTATIVE MEASURES, SOMETIMES ACNE IS JUST UNAVOIDABLE!![/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />

    My Secrets to Clear Skin Part 2[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
  [SIZE="3"]  October 17, 2015 By John Doe<br />
<br />
<br />
   [SIZE="3"] I place a lot of emphasis on my skin as well as my muscles.<br />
<br />
    It sucks to have a large and muscular physique, just to be embarrassed to show it off because of shitty skin.<br />
<br />
    Diet and cleansing play a role in clear skin, but most of the negative issues we face with skin are really due to hormone levels in the body. This is the #1 reason why you experience acne outbreaks as a teenager more than an adult.<br />
<br />
    Guys using steroids often face severe acne outbreaks on their shoulders and back, and this is usually worse when they discontinue use and go into recovery mode.<br />
[/SIZE]<br />
    [SIZE="3"]Some of the things they use for recovery can make it even worse than using nothing at all.<br />
<br />
    Itâs really a double edged sword here: on one hand, recovery drugs will help your body produce itâs own testosterone again much faster.<br />
<br />
    While on the other hand, because youâre introducing an abundance of female hormones to get your own body to counteract it by making itâs own testosterone again, youâre often faced with acne as a side effect.[/SIZE]<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="4"][COLOR="Blue"]<br />
    The biggest culprit of acne is the dreaded âestrogen rebound effectâ.[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
    [SIZE="3"]This happens when you discontinue either a cycle of steroids or EVEN SOME SUPPLEMENTS THAT REQUIRE A POST CYCLE THERAPY REGIMEN.<br />
<br />
    The biggest protocol here is to stay on some sort of aromatase inhibitor such as Arimidex or Aromasin throughout post cycle therapy, in order to keep estrogen levels at bay.<br />
<br />
    Itâs also not a bad idea to include these throughout the cycle, because almost any time testosterone levels go up, so do estrogen levels.[/SIZE]<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="4"][COLOR="Blue"]<br />
    <span style="font-size: 3pt;" class="mycode_size">The key is to keep testosterone high and estrogen in normal range (low normal is even better).[/COLOR]</span></span><br />
<br />
    If you need a good post cycle therapy regimen and you donât have access to aromatase inhibitors (drugs that prevent estrogen conversion) such as Arimidex or Aromasin, then my next option would be Post Cycle 3x by Vital Labs paired up with Osta Shred.<br />
<br />
    The Osta Shred has Arimistane included in it, and itâs a decent dosage that will prevent estrogen conversion and also reduce circulating levels of elevated estrogen.<br />
<br />
    Arimistane definitely works and will keep you much dryer and harder looking by keeping estrogen out of the picture.<br />
<br />
    While Post Cycle 3x has 800mg/dose of Trans-Resveratrol included in it, I just donât know of any conclusive studies showing this ingredient REDUCES already circulating estrogen levels rather than just blocking the formation of estrogen.<br />
<br />
    If it were myself I would pair this product with Osta Shred as a safeguard since the Arimistane in Osta Shred will surely reduce already circulating levels of estrogen.<br />
<br />
    Not only that, but youâre still getting a decent performance based effect out of the supplement during PCT, and usually during PCT most guys crash and training goes to shit!!<br />
<br />
    Osta Shred is also a product that doesnât require a PCT if only used for 4 weeks, so I see no harm in taking this DURING A PCT.<br />
[/SIZE]<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="4"][COLOR="Blue"]<br />
    MOST GUYS DEVELOP GYNECOMASTIA DURING PCT, NOT ON CYCLE!![/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
    [SIZE="3"]Guys want to know if they can use anything to get an edge while coming off cycle and in their down time.<br />
<br />
    Osta Shred during PCT and Post Cycle 3x would be my answer as far as the supplement route goes.<br />
<br />
    Normal PCT is usually around 4 weeks.<br />
<br />
    I would personally run the Osta Shred out during the entire PCT (about 4 weeks total).<br />
<br />
    One bottle of each product should be enough to get you 4 weeks for post cycle therapy.[/SIZE]<br />

    BUT I THOUGHT THIS ARTICLE WAS ABOUT CLEAR SKIN?[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
    [SIZE="3"]This article is most certainly about clear skin, but if I didnât address the biggest issue with skin first, then this article would hold no value!!<br />
<br />
    The faster we can get hormone production back to normal and in the right ratio, the faster your skin is going to clear up!!<br />
<br />
    So what can you do in the meantime before you get any other products?<br />
[/SIZE]<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="4"][COLOR="Blue"]<br />
    10 NATURAL STEPS FOR CLEAR SKIN.[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><br />
    [SIZE="3"]#1- Start rubbing deodorant on your acne before bed at night, this will help dry it out.<br />
<br />
    #2- Start using Dawn liquid dish soap to wash yourself with.</span><br />
<br />
    This will help cut oil better, and since your sebaceous glands are going nuts producing excess oil, itâs a wise idea to use something stronger such as dishwashing soap to shower with.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><br />
    #3- Try to shower twice/day, morning and evening.<br />
<br />
    #4- Stop wearing tank tops for now.</span><br />
<br />
    By wearing a tank top, your sweat and oil just sits there on your body and isnât absorbed by anything. A T-shirt is the better route to go here, since at least the fabric will soak up more of the oils/sweat on your body.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><br />
    #5- Start using pantothenic acid (vitamin B-5).</span><br />
<br />
    Pantothenic acid works by increasing the rate of oil breakdown, so not as much oil = not as much acne. 500mg/day is a good starting point for dosing, and once acne begins clearing up I would drop to 250mg/day and carry on for an additional month.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><br />
    #6- Try to clean up your diet.</span><br />
<br />
    While diet is a very small portion of acne issues, it does play some role. I would try eating more whole, natural foods (any food that spoils if not eaten within a few days, and isnât in an air sealed bag). And I would eliminate dairy products altogether. I can remember a long time ago when I tried the âgallon of milk per dayâ routine to try to gain mass, my acne got terrible. So I can definitely attest to this myself!!!<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><br />
    #7- Avoid sweating.</span><br />
<br />
    This one is difficult because without the gym youâd rather die right? I would suggest avoiding any type of intensity that is going to cause you to sweat excessively. For example, if you normally hit your cardio for a hard 30 minutes, maybe adjust to a slower paced 45 minutes, at least until your skin clears up.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><br />
    #8- Seek out a dermatologist and be honest with themâ¦sort of.</span><br />
<br />
    I would tell them that my acne was caused by a product I purchased from the vitamin store (think of a pro-hormone here) because if you get an asshole who jots down âPatient took 1,000mg/wk of testosterone and has severe acne,â I would be afraid insurance wouldnât cover it if they looked into it. If you have access to a dermatologist and the financial means/insurance to do so, then definitely DO NOT WAIT. You donât want permanent scars for the rest of your life because you didnât address skin issues early on.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><br />
    #9- Use an exfoliant a few times/week to clear off the outer layer of dead skin.</span><br />
<br />
    On top of using your dishwashing liquid soap, itâs not a bad idea to at least use an exfoliant a few times/week to clear off the outer layer so the soaps/products can get down in there deeper. Any cheap exfoliant will work, they all pretty much operate on the same mechanism of providing some sort of gritty base to abrade the skin and clear off the dead cells. Use this on your face as well as shoulders, and if you can get someone to scrub your back, then do that as well.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><br />
    #10- Use products that promote lower estrogen levelsâ¦</span><br />
<br />
    â¦and get your hormones back into normal range (or products that hold estrogen at bay) while on a cycle or EVEN SOME SUPPLEMENT CYCLES!!<br />
<br />
    As long as hormones stay fucked up, so will acne!!! The trick is to provide a steady hormone ratio the entire time.[/SIZE]<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="4"][COLOR="Blue"]<br />
    EVEN WITH THE BEST PREVENTATIVE MEASURES, SOMETIMES ACNE IS JUST UNAVOIDABLE!![/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
   [SIZE="3"] Look, have you ever heard the expression: âYou gotta pay to play?â Well thatâs sort of the case here when it comes to hormones or hormone precursors.<br />
<br />
    Like any other medication you could put into your body, there can be side effects and something creeping up on the back end that you donât yet know is coming on!!<br />
<br />
    Itâs part of the game, Iâve been there before myself. Iâm someone who had to go to a dermatologist before because of my shoulders and back acne!![/SIZE]]]></content:encoded>

    LETRO FOR GYNO[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
[SIZE="3"]<br />
<br />
    I am posting this thread to help answer all of the questions regarding gyno prevention and reversal, the use of letrozole and other anti-e's. I will go over everything in very simple easy to understand language. Also we are talking about estrogen gyno here, not progesterone (but using letro will stop progesterone related problems as well since it inhibits all estrogen anyways). Progesterone gyno will be enlargement of your nipple area, the actual aereola, not a lump under it.<br />
<br />
    Let me make this first point very clear, this is from my personal experience, so whether you agree with it or not is your own issue. I have helped many people with gyno and it has worked just fine for them as well.........<br />
<br />
<br />
    To first understand why you are doing what you are doing I am going to go over a few things and a few definitions:<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><span style="font-size: 4pt;" class="mycode_size"><span style="color: Navy;" class="mycode_color">    SERM ; </span></span></span>Selective estrogen receptor modulator. These drugs work by binding to the estrogen receptors and flooding them in a sense, making it difficult (but not impossible by any means) for estrogen to bind to the receptors and thus prevent the onset of estrogen related side effects.<br />
<br />
    Most common forms: Tamoxifen (Nolvadex), Clomiphene (clomid)<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="4"][COLOR="Navy"]<br />
    AI; Aromatise Inhibitor. [/COLOR][/SIZE]</span>These drugs work by inhibiting the aromatization of estrogen. This means that in effect AI's prevent androgens from converting to estrogen, again, making it difficult (but not impossible) for estrogen to reach receptor sites.<br />
<br />
    Most common forms: Anastrozole (l-dex, a-dex), Exemestane (aromasin), Femera (letrozole). For our purpose of reversing gyno we are interested in letro.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="5"][COLOR="Navy"]<br />
    Letro and your sex drive:[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
    Letrozole will suppress your sex drive. This is another reason why it is so important to act on preventing gyno as soon as possible. Since we all know that test should be run in every cycle this will cancel out the effect of sex drive suppression.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="5"][COLOR="Navy"]<br />
    Running Letro to prevent gyno:[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
    If you decide to run estrogen protection while on cycle (and I suggest you do unless you are aware that you do not require it), you can run either a SERM or an AI. Letro will be the most powerful AI you can use, it will inhibit 98+% of estrogen using a dose as low as .25mg and even lower. This is why I suggest you do not use a dose higher than .50mg while on cycle just trying to prevent estrogen related side effects.<br />
<br />
    You will want to start running the letro approximately 2 weeks before you begin your cycle to allow it to fully stabilize in your blood. I have often heard the argument that Letro takes up to 60 days to stabilize, I don't know if I buy into this for the reason that I have reversed gyno after using Letro for only 1 week. Still to be safe I recommend starting it before your cycle as stated above.<br />
<br />
    If you do decide to run Letro there is absolutely no need to run another AI or SERM. Do not make the mistake of thinking more is better. Think of it this way; if Letro is preventing the conversion of androgens to estrogen than there is no estrogen, what would the purpose of a SERM be when there is no estrogen to bind to the receptors? Nolva will only take away from the effectiveness of Letro.<br />
<br />
    This brings me to my next point. Do not listen to anyone who tells you to bump up your nolvadex to 60+mg ED if you get gyno. I have no idea where this idea started but I have seen it suggest far too many times recently. Nolvadex will do nothing to reverse your gyno, let me make that clear IT WILL DO NOTHING FOR GYNO. If you are running nolva as your anti-e and start to develop gyno than sure you can bump the dosage a small amount to try to prevent it from progressing further, but Letrozole must begin ASAP.<br />
<br />
    It is very important that you begin taking Letrozole immediately, the longer your wait the more risk you take in not being able to reverse it.<br />
[SIZE="5"]<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[COLOR="Navy"]<br />
    How do I know if I have gyno?[/COLOR]</span>[/SIZE]<br />
<br />
    If you have developed gyno you will have a lump behind your nipple. It will be fairly hard, and it will be tender to touch.<br />

[SIZE="3"]<br />
By Bigfella &amp; PartyBoy - MuscleTalk Moderators<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="5"][COLOR="Navy"]<br />
Why Bodybuilders Use Clomid[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
Clomid is a generic name for Clomiphene Citrate and is a synthetic oestrogen. It is prescribed medically to aid ovulation in low fertility females. Another generic name is Serophene.<br />
<br />
Most anabolic steroids, especially the androgens, cause inhibition of the body's own testosterone production. When a bodybuilder comes off a steroid cycle, natural testosterone production is zero and the levels of the steroids taken in the blood are diminishing. This leaves the ratios of catabolic : anabolic hormones in the blood high, hence the body is in a state of catabolism, and, as a result, much of the muscle tissue that was gained on the cycle is now going to be lost.<br />
<br />
Clomid stimulates the hypothalamus to, in turn stimulant the anterior pituitary gland (aka hypophysis) to release gonadotrophic hormones. The gonadotrophic hormones are follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH - aka interstitial cell stimulating hormone (ICSH)). FSH stimulates the testes to produce more testosterone, and LH stimulates them to secrete more testosterone. This feedback mechanism is known as the hypothalamic-pituitary-testes axis (HPTA), and results in an increase of the body's own testosterone production and blood levels rise, to, in part, compensate for the diminishing levels of exogenous steroids. This is vital to minimise post cycle muscle losses.<br />
<br />
Not all steroids do cause shut down of the feedback mechanism. Everyone is different and you must also take into account how long you have been using a certain steroid and at what dose in order to determine if you need Clomid or not.<br />
<br />
Clomid also works as an anti-oestrogen. As it's a weak synthetic oestrogen, it binds to oestrogen receptors on cells blocking them to oestrogen in the blood. This minimises the negative effects like gynecomastia and water retention that may be a result of oestrogen that has aromatised from testosterone.<br />
<br />
It's effect as an anti-oestrogen are quite weak though, and it should not be relied upon if you are going to be using androgenic steroids that aromatise at a rapid rate, or if you are pre-disposed to gynecomastia. Arimidex and Nolvadex (Tamoxifen) are far more effective anti-oestrogens.<br />
<br />
Important note: Clomid does not, as is often thought, stimulate the release of natural testosterone, but rather works at reducing the oestrogenic inhibition caused by the steroid cycle. It does this in a similar manner to the way it and Nolvadex block oestrogen receptors in nipples to combat gyno development, i.e. by blocking the oestrogen receptors in the hypothalamus and pituitary thus reducing the inhibition from the elevated oestrogen. This allows LH levels to return to normal, or even above normal levels, and in turn, natural testosterone levels to also normalise.<br />
<br />
Inhibition of the HPTA is caused by either elevated androgen, oestrogen or progesterone levels. On cessation of the steroid cycle, androgen levels begin to fall and Clomid dosing is normally commenced according to the half-life of the longest acting drug in the system (see below).<br />
<br />
This may also explain the reason individuals often find post-deca recovery more difficult, as the progesterone presence is untouched by the Clomid. We know that Clomid and Nolvadex (being very similar chemically) are both ineffective with regard to reducing progesterone related gyno, so it is reasonable to assume that Clomid has little effect against progesterone levels.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="6"][COLOR="Navy"]<br />
Clomid During A Cycle[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
When we use anabolic steroids, the level of androgens in the body rises causing the androgen receptors to become more highly activated, and through the HPTA, a signal tells our testes to stop producing testosterone. During a cycle the body has far higher than normal levels of androgens and, as long as this level is high enough, Clomid will not help to keep natural testosterone production up. It will be almost all but completely shut off, in theory.<br />
<br />
Some heavy androgen users, however, do advocate a small burst of Clomid mid-cycle, though it must be hard for them to say if it really of any benefit, due to the amount of gear they are using. Therefore, the only purpose of Clomid during a cycle is as an anti-estrogen.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="6"][COLOR="Navy"]<br />
When To Take Clomid[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
The correct time to commence Clomid depends on the type and cycle of steroids you have been using. Different steroids have different half-lifes (indicates the time a substance diminishes in blood), and Clomid administration should be taken accordingly.<br />
<br />
As we have seen above, Clomid taken when androgen levels in our blood are still high will be a waste. It is crucial to wait for androgen levels to fall before implementing our Clomid therapy. However, if taken too late we could possibly lose gains.<br />
<br />
The list below determines when you should start Clomid. Select from the list any steroids you've used in your cycle and whichever one has the latest starting point is the time to commence Clomid. For example, if Dianabol, Sustanon and Winstrol were cycled, the time for administering Clomid should be 3 weeks post cycle, as Sustanon remains active in the body for the longest period of time.<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="6"][COLOR="Navy"]<br />
<br />

How To Take Clomid[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
Clomid has a long half-life (possibly 5 days), so there is no need to split up doses throughout the day. If Sustanon has been used and Clomid is commenced 3 weeks after the last injection, I would estimate that androgen levels are low enough to start sending the correct signals. If androgen levels are still a little high, we need to start at a high enough amount that will work or help, even if androgen levels are still a little high. Try 300mg on day 1; then use 100mg for the next 10 days; followed by 50mg for 10 days.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="5"][COLOR="Navy"]<br />
How to take Nolvadex for PCT[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
As an alternative to Clomid, which has been reported to have led to unwanted side effects such as visual disturbances in some users, Nolvadex can be employed. Nolvadex is a trade name for the drug Tamoxifen. Like Clomid, the half life of Nolvadex is relatively long enabling the user to implement a single daily dosing schedule. Administration would start as per the timescales outlined above and the duration would be identical to that of Clomid.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="5"][COLOR="Navy"]<br />
Typically, for a moderate-heavy cycle, the following dosages would be used:[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
Day 1 - 100mg<br />
<br />
Following 10 days - 60mg<br />
<br />
Following 10 days - 40mg<br />
<br />
Occasionally, heavier cycles containing perhaps Nandrolone (Deca) or Trenbolone which by definition are particularly suppressive of the HPTA, may require a slightly longer therapy. Likewise, more modest/shorter cycles may require lower dosages, perhaps dropping each by 20mg per day.<br />
<br />
Some users like to use both Clomid and Nolvadex in their PCT in an attempt to cover all angles. An example of the dosages involved might be:<br />
<br />
Day 1 - Clomid 200mg + Nolvadex 40mg<br />
<br />
Following 10 days - Clomid 50mg + Nolvadex 20mg<br />
<br />
Following 10 days - Clomid 50mg or Nolvadex 20mg<br />
<br />
( I personally utilize this protocol during pct--F.I.S.T.)<br />
<br />
Of course, the examples provided are not set in stone and may be adjusted depending on the factors outlined above and individual variances.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="5"][COLOR="Navy"]<br />
Using HCG<br />
[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
It is our opinion that HCG is probably one of the most misunderstood and misused compounds in bodybuilding. Hopefully this information will go some way towards rectifying that for the members of MuscleTalk. HCG stands for Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin and is not a steroid, but a natural peptide hormone which develops in the placenta of pregnant women during pregnancy to controls the mother's hormones. (Incidentally, this is the reason you may hear of people testing for growth hormone (HGH) with a pregnancy testing kit - If their HGH shows 'pregnant', they've been ripped-off with cheaper HCG - but we digress slightly).<br />
<br />
Its action in the male body is like that of LH, stimulating the Leydig cells in the testes to produce testosterone even in the absence of endogenous LH. HCG is therefore used during longer or heavier steroid cycles to maintain testicular size and condition, or to bring atrophied (shrunken) testicles back up to their original condition in preparation for post-cycle Clomid therapy.<br />
<br />
This process is necessary because atrophied testicles produce reduced levels of natural testosterone, this situation should be rectified prior to post-cycle [/SIZE]]]></description>

<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="5"][COLOR="Navy"]<br />
Why Bodybuilders Use Clomid[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
Clomid is a generic name for Clomiphene Citrate and is a synthetic oestrogen. It is prescribed medically to aid ovulation in low fertility females. Another generic name is Serophene.<br />
<br />
Most anabolic steroids, especially the androgens, cause inhibition of the body's own testosterone production. When a bodybuilder comes off a steroid cycle, natural testosterone production is zero and the levels of the steroids taken in the blood are diminishing. This leaves the ratios of catabolic : anabolic hormones in the blood high, hence the body is in a state of catabolism, and, as a result, much of the muscle tissue that was gained on the cycle is now going to be lost.<br />
<br />
Clomid stimulates the hypothalamus to, in turn stimulant the anterior pituitary gland (aka hypophysis) to release gonadotrophic hormones. The gonadotrophic hormones are follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH - aka interstitial cell stimulating hormone (ICSH)). FSH stimulates the testes to produce more testosterone, and LH stimulates them to secrete more testosterone. This feedback mechanism is known as the hypothalamic-pituitary-testes axis (HPTA), and results in an increase of the body's own testosterone production and blood levels rise, to, in part, compensate for the diminishing levels of exogenous steroids. This is vital to minimise post cycle muscle losses.<br />
<br />
Not all steroids do cause shut down of the feedback mechanism. Everyone is different and you must also take into account how long you have been using a certain steroid and at what dose in order to determine if you need Clomid or not.<br />
<br />
Clomid also works as an anti-oestrogen. As it's a weak synthetic oestrogen, it binds to oestrogen receptors on cells blocking them to oestrogen in the blood. This minimises the negative effects like gynecomastia and water retention that may be a result of oestrogen that has aromatised from testosterone.<br />
<br />
It's effect as an anti-oestrogen are quite weak though, and it should not be relied upon if you are going to be using androgenic steroids that aromatise at a rapid rate, or if you are pre-disposed to gynecomastia. Arimidex and Nolvadex (Tamoxifen) are far more effective anti-oestrogens.<br />
<br />
Important note: Clomid does not, as is often thought, stimulate the release of natural testosterone, but rather works at reducing the oestrogenic inhibition caused by the steroid cycle. It does this in a similar manner to the way it and Nolvadex block oestrogen receptors in nipples to combat gyno development, i.e. by blocking the oestrogen receptors in the hypothalamus and pituitary thus reducing the inhibition from the elevated oestrogen. This allows LH levels to return to normal, or even above normal levels, and in turn, natural testosterone levels to also normalise.<br />
<br />
Inhibition of the HPTA is caused by either elevated androgen, oestrogen or progesterone levels. On cessation of the steroid cycle, androgen levels begin to fall and Clomid dosing is normally commenced according to the half-life of the longest acting drug in the system (see below).<br />
<br />
This may also explain the reason individuals often find post-deca recovery more difficult, as the progesterone presence is untouched by the Clomid. We know that Clomid and Nolvadex (being very similar chemically) are both ineffective with regard to reducing progesterone related gyno, so it is reasonable to assume that Clomid has little effect against progesterone levels.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="6"][COLOR="Navy"]<br />
Clomid During A Cycle[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
When we use anabolic steroids, the level of androgens in the body rises causing the androgen receptors to become more highly activated, and through the HPTA, a signal tells our testes to stop producing testosterone. During a cycle the body has far higher than normal levels of androgens and, as long as this level is high enough, Clomid will not help to keep natural testosterone production up. It will be almost all but completely shut off, in theory.<br />
<br />
Some heavy androgen users, however, do advocate a small burst of Clomid mid-cycle, though it must be hard for them to say if it really of any benefit, due to the amount of gear they are using. Therefore, the only purpose of Clomid during a cycle is as an anti-estrogen.<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="6"][COLOR="Navy"]<br />
When To Take Clomid[/COLOR][/SIZE]</span><br />
<br />
The correct time to commence Clomid depends on the type and cycle of steroids you have been using. Different steroids have different half-lifes (indicates the time a substance diminishes in blood), and Clomid administration should be taken accordingly.<br />
<br />
As we have seen above, Clomid taken when androgen levels in our blood are still high will be a waste. It is crucial to wait for androgen levels to fall before implementing our Clomid therapy. However, if taken too late we could possibly lose gains.<br />
<br />
The list below determines when you should start Clomid. Select from the list any steroids you've used in your cycle and whichever one has the latest starting point is the time to commence Clomid. For example, if Dianabol, Sustanon and Winstrol were cycled, the time for administering Clomid should be 3 weeks post cycle, as Sustanon remains active in the body for the longest period of time.<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">[SIZE="6"][COLOR="Navy"]<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
What is Cabergoline? <br />
&gt;CABERGOLINE (Dostinex) â Caber is a very potent Dopamine Agonist. It acts on dopamine receptors in the hypothalamus to suppress prolactin production in the pituitary gland. It is used for Hyperprolactinemia. (elevated levels of prolactin in blood) It is also used in treatment of Parkinsons Disease. Now Ill get deeper into what the hell all that means a little further on. <br />
<br />
&gt;Half Life = 63-69 Hours. So I recommend to take Caber every third day. Thatâs at the far end of the range of its half life. Though this is what the dosing is for patients and studies that have been done and it works just fine. If youâre a stickler for dosing everything correctly I would obviously dose it every 2 and Â½ days. <br />
<br />
&gt;Taking your dose of Caber before bed. (with or without food) will minimize your experience of sides. <br />
<br />
- Documented Sidesâ (bad sides) Fatigue, nausea, dizziness, vertigo, headache, slightly abnormal vision, hot flashes. Now before you get all scared and think oh I cant take this. These sides were mostly reported when taking higher doses (1g+ a week) then we will be taking for our cycles. Also Caber has been found in some instances to increase the affects of Depression Medication. Word to the wise for those members using said meds. <br />
-Other Sides- (good sides) I have not come across any scientific studies documenting them but many users have reported areâ¦Increased Sex Drive, Stronger Erections, More Powerful Orgasms, Taking Less Time to Achieve A Full Erection after Ejactulation. And I will attest to the fact that those sides do happen. I have experienced all the âgood sidesâ first hand. Also I have not experienced any of the âbad sidesâ ever. <br />
There are even ppl who have been taking Caber only for the specific reason of the sexual sides. Now I of course do not condone this and would only recommend using Caber in conjuction with an AAS cycle. <br />
<br />
-Another big thing I have heard members cry about as a reason not to take Caber, is that it has been found to cause Heart Valve Damage. This is true but as I stated earlier, only at a lot higher doses (3mg/per day!!) then we will be using. So stop whining. <br />
<br />
-If for some reason you are prone to sides for any and everything, reducing your dose, while continuing the Caber will improve the severity of the sides. So basically if you experience a slight amount of sides at any given dose. Lower your dose until the sides fade but donât stop using the caber! I would prefer some of the lesser sides of Caber to those of Tren and Deca any day. <br />
<br />
How much Caber to use and when?<br />
 I prefer to use Caber while running any 19-Nor. (tren, deca) They affect the thyroid by lowering it (hypothyroidism) which causes the body to release more prolactin in the blood stream. (note- an overactive thyroid can cause elevated prolactin levels also) Prolactin at high levels has the affect of lowering sex drive and causing erectile dysfunction. We call it deca and fina dick. And from first hand experience, deca dick is not fun!! Tren is also a Progestin, it bonds to the receptor of the female sex hormone Progesterone. Which is responsible for preparing the body for milk production. I.E. By raising prolactin. So in order to avoid all that. Its best to run Caber from the very beginning of the cycle. I even prefer to run it into PCT for an extra boost.<br />
 <br />
STARTING DOSE â Beginning dose of Caber for use on cycle would be .25mg taken twice a week. For a total of .50 mg a week. Notice the point in front of the 25. Its not 25mg!! Its .25mg<br />
 This dose is usually enough for an 8 week Tren cycle. If your prone to sides, running deca/tren E, or just running the Tren A longer. Then take the .50 mg/per week for 4 weeks and then bump it up another .25mg a week. For a total of .75mg per week. If sides from the gear are very bad, you can even bump it up to a total of 1mg a week. You can continue to up your dose (only if your experiencing sides from Tren/Deca) of the Caber every 4 weeks until you have reached a maximum dose of 1mg twice a week or 2mg per week. But there is no reason to go no where near that high. If your still experiencing sides at 1mg/per week then your Caber is bunk or there is more serious underlying causes at work.<br />
 I was taking .5mg/p/w of Caber during a cycle with high doses of Tren. I actually didnât have any fina dick problems but I did start Lactating! Yes my nipples were leaking. (its called Galactorrhea = lactation in the absence of nursing) lol So then I bumped up my dose to .50mg at 2 times a week (1mg/week) and the milk juice went away within a week. Other then that, I have had no problems and nothing but good experiences while taking Caber. <br />
<br />
Now to give you an idea of the doses that are being taken by Parkinsons Disease and other Patients,<br />
 â¢ Parkinson's disease: Monotherapy: Initial dose should be 0.5 mg daily. The usual maintenance dose is 2 to 4 mg daily. Combination therapy: Usually 2 to 6 mg daily. <br />
â¢ Tumors of the pituitary gland and other hyperprolactinemic conditions: Initially 0.5 mg per week, slowly titrated to 4.5 mg per week, if necessary. <br />
â¢ Note â Caber is not approved in the U.S. for the treatment of Parkinsons. <br />
You can see why they would experience the sides that I stated above. Since we are no where near those doses, we should not experience any sides other then the âgood ones.â<br />
 <br />
Caber for PCT â Basically the same dosing as during cycle. I would go with a good dose of .50per/week to 1mg per/week. You are not taking the Caber during PCT for its affects on Prolactin because the use of it during cycle will negate any of the prolactin affects. I use caber during PCT to help with the lowered sex drive and slight decrease in the strength of your erections. It will give a little bump to your sex drive and give you slightly more powerful erections. During PCT while many experience depression and such, knowing that you can still get it nice and hard when you want is always a plus in my book. Since Caber is also known for helping prevent gyno. Theres another reason to use it during PCT. I run Caber during every PCT and have found that it does help a great deal.]]></description>

(its called Galactorrhea = lactation in the absence of nursing) lol So then I bumped up my dose to .50mg at 2 times a week (1mg/week) and the milk juice went away within a week. Other then that, I have had no problems and nothing but good experiences while taking Caber. <br />
<br />
Now to give you an idea of the doses that are being taken by Parkinsons Disease and other Patients,<br />
 â¢ Parkinson's disease: Monotherapy: Initial dose should be 0.5 mg daily. The usual maintenance dose is 2 to 4 mg daily. Combination therapy: Usually 2 to 6 mg daily. <br />
â¢ Tumors of the pituitary gland and other hyperprolactinemic conditions: Initially 0.5 mg per week, slowly titrated to 4.5 mg per week, if necessary. <br />
â¢ Note â Caber is not approved in the U.S. for the treatment of Parkinsons. <br />
You can see why they would experience the sides that I stated above. Since we are no where near those doses, we should not experience any sides other then the âgood ones.â<br />
 <br />
Caber for PCT â Basically the same dosing as during cycle. I would go with a good dose of .50per/week to 1mg per/week. You are not taking the Caber during PCT for its affects on Prolactin because the use of it during cycle will negate any of the prolactin affects. I use caber during PCT to help with the lowered sex drive and slight decrease in the strength of your erections. It will give a little bump to your sex drive and give you slightly more powerful erections. During PCT while many experience depression and such, knowing that you can still get it nice and hard when you want is always a plus in my book. Since Caber is also known for helping prevent gyno. Theres another reason to use it during PCT. I run Caber during every PCT and have found that it does help a great deal.]]></content:encoded>

			<description><![CDATA[Hypogonadism is a condition where your testes stop producing sperm and shrink aka shutdown. This condition is Caused by exogenous testosterone being Introduced into the body through anabolic steroids.<br />
<br />
 <br />
<br />
 Top  Steroids That will cause your Balls to shrink<br />
<br />
 1. Deca Durabolin<br />
 Deca Durabolin, the trade name for the decanoate ester of nandrolone, is notorious for causing testicular atrophy and low libido. In fact, Deca is so bad That it has earned a nickname for its ability to crush your libido - "Deca Dick." To understand this, first Know That Nandrolone is a steroid 19-nortestosterone, meaning it does not have the 19th carbon position That testosterone has. Furthermore, 19-nor steroids like to bind to progesterone receptors (1), and one of the worst side effects of this progestogenic activity is decreased At endogenous testosterone production. Finally, it does not help That deca has a half-life of around 14 days, meaning this steroid will stay in your system for quite some time after a continuous cycle and causing ball shrinkage.Primobolan<br />
<br />
 2. Trenabolone<br />
 Trenbolone is another 19-nor steroid, meaning it has anche heavy progestogenic activity. There's an ongoing debate over tren Whether or deca is worse with regard to shutting down your natural testosterone production and shrinking your testicles; but we'll just agree That they're Both pretty bad. Trenbolone's two most common forms (esters) are tren acetate (tren A) tren and enanthate (tren E). Tren A is fast-acting and will cause testicular atrophy very quickly; However, the effects go away sooner too Because this drug has a half-life of around 2 days. Tren It is a slower-acting version with a half life of around 7-8 days, meaning shutdown can last longer. But no matter Which version of trenbolone it is, this drug Has Been shown to cause fertility issues in everything from humans to fish (2).<br />
<br />
 3. Testosterone<br />
 The king of steroids is anche one of the kings of bodybuilders shutting down later in a cycle. In fact, a 2012 study performed on 1,000 Chinese men Showed That testosterone injections had over a 95% success rate at Preventing pregnancy (3) - almost the same effectiveness as female birth control pills! Given what we discussed before about why anabolic steroids cause testicular shrinkage, it only makes sense That injecting exogenous testosterone will negatively affect your HPTA function. However, while you're in  a cycle, you'll notice a major Likely INCREASE in libido thanks to all the testosterone in your system.<br />
<br />
<br />
4. Dianabol<br />
 Most warnings about Dianabol, the popular trade name for the steroid methandrostenolone, revolve around its ability to harm your liver. However, mg for mg, Dianabol (aka Dbol) anche is one of the most-suppressive anabolic steroids available. What saves many bodybuilders from long-term suppression to two Dbol Is that it's commonly dosed between 10mg-50mg per day (70mg-350mg per week) and run in shorter cycles (6-8 weeks). In comparison, testosterone is injected at 500mg-1,000mg per week, for 12 weeks or longer]]></description>
