Pharmacology
Deca
Durabolin is widely regarded as one of the safest and effective steroids. Nandrolone
is commonly used as a base in a steroid cycle. Nandrolone is an anabolic
steroid that is both present in the human body and also made synthetic. The
levels in the human body are very low to account for any significant effects.
It is a byproduct when other hormones breakdown in our body. Of all the
anabolic steroids, it is one of the most widely abused steroids by athletes and
bodybuilders.
It is often
sold under several names including DECA Durabolin or Durabolin. Both the
synthetic forms are long acting drugs. The drug possesses both androgenic and
anabolic activities. When taken at low doses, it is a powerful anabolic drug
but at high doses, it also possesses significant androgenic effects.
Bodybuilders
When the
drug is injected intramuscularly, it should only be administered once a week.
Nandrolone is a potent anabolic steroid and is known to cause an increase in
muscle mass, stimulate appetite and increase red blood cell production.
This
ability of nandrolone to increase red cells has been widely quoted as a cause
of the improved exercise performance after taking the drug.
Nandrolone
is slowly broken down by the liver and is also converted to estrogen by the
enzyme aromatase. The levels of estrogen are responsible for causing the
gynecomastia and water retention. However, this conversion to estrogen only
occurs when high doses of nandrolone are used.
Nandrolone
is often used in combination with many other hormones, like Clomiphene, Anavar
and growth hormone. Most people cycle the drug every month. This avoids the
side effects and maintains the body weight.
Dosing
The longer
acting nandrolone in injection form is used today by all bodybuilders. The oily
liquid formulation should only be injected into the buttock area and this site
should be frequently rotated to prevent abscess formation. When large volumes
are injected in the buttocks, there may be pain and a constant ache. The
recommended dose of nandrolone decanoate is 300-600mg/week. If no effects are
seen after 6 months of use, the drug must be discontinued. One should be aware
that when no effects are seen after long term use of the steroid, one must
suspect a fake formulation- which is not unheard of.
Nandrolone
liquid preparations do often breakdown and if the product is discolored or
appears clumped it should not be used.
Women
Because
nandrolone can cause virilization with signs like deepening of voice, excessive
hair growth, acne, enlargement of the clitoris and menstrual irregularities,
this drug should be avoided. Many of the side effects of nandrolone disappear
once the drug is stopped, but the masculanizing features are not always reversible.
The dose in females is about 300mg/per week. Females should stay with the low
dose to avoid the development of virilizing effects.
