Deca Durabolin highly effective drug

Deca Durabolin has an active life of 14-16 days and is detectable over a period of 16-18 months. Belonging to the category of anabolic-androgenic steroids and classified as a 2.16 anabolic steroid, Deca is a highly effective drug that is available in different forms such as creams, pills, capsules and gels. Medically, the drug is advised to stimulate immune system enhancements and offer dramatic relief to HIV/AIDS patients and even treat specific blood disorders as part of the adjuvant therapy. This steroid is used by sportsmen to benefit from the improved recuperation time between workouts, protein synthesis, and nitrogen retention. Nandrolone is the base hormone, but it is better known under the trade name Deca Durabolin, which contains Nandrolone Decanoate. This popular preparation takes the Nandrolone hormone and adds a Decanoate ester chain. This ester chain is attached during the manufacturing process and it serves dual purposes. The main purpose is to make the hormone oil soluble, so it can be put in an amp or multi-dose vial. The second purpose of this ester chain is to slow-release the steroid by keeping deca from interacting with androgen receptors until the ester chain is cleaved off by enzymes in your body. Since Nandrolone Necanoate cannot attach to an androgen receptor until enzymes in your body have cleaved off the Decanoate ester, it causes the steroid to slow-release into your system over many days. For medical use, the ester’s main function is to allow the hormone to be injected only once every 3 weeks. However, bodybuilders may inject Deca Durabolin weekly or as often as every three days.

Moreover, this steroid is admired as its use even for long anabolic steroid cycles does not result in side effects like oily skin, male pattern baldness, and prostate complications. If that was not all, Deca use is considered of great use to mask minor joint pain and old nagging injuries besides reducing the inflammation of soft tissues and promoting masculine (secondary sexual) characteristics, including growth of the vocal cords, testicles, and body hair. This steroid is commonly used in doses of 300-800 mg per week by men and 50-100 mg per week by women or in doses of 600 mg per week for 12-16 weeks by men for bulking cycles and 400 mg per week for 12-16 weeks by men in cutting cycles.

A popular Deca Durabolin cycle is all about using Dianabol-30 mg every day for week 1-3 and then 40 mg every day for week 4-6 and complementing it with Sustanon 250 mg every week for week 1-12, Clomid 50 mg every week for week 10-12, and Deca Durabolin-200 mg for the first week and then 300 mg per week for 2nd and 3rd weeks, and 400 mg every week for 4th and 5th weeks, and 300 mg every week for the sixth week. Overdosing or use of low grade or abuse of Deca Durabolin can lead to side effects such as may even cause heart attack, edema, prostate enlargement, menstrual problems, liver toxicity, liver damage, and gynecomastia (female-like breasts). It may even cause elevated blood pressure, shrinking of the testicles, bone age advancement, bad effect on cholesterol levels, increased aggression, oily skin, acne, clitoral hypertrophy, infertility, and sexual dysfunction.

Side Effects:   
Side effects with Deca are much less than other steroids such as straight testosterones.  In fact, people choose Deca for this reason.  It’s not toxic to the liver and not particularly toxic to other organs of the body, and it’s highly effective.  That makes for a potent muscle-building brew; one you can really sink your teeth into without the threat of a lot of consequence.  It’s not, however, totally without them. Knowing how vain most bodybuilders truly are, most are thrilled that Deca doesn’t have acne as a side-effect.  In rare cases, there will be slight breakout, but not among the majority.  Now, that’s when you take 400mg/week.  But like anything worth doing, Deca is worth overdoing.  Right in the neighborhood of 600-1000mg/week is what I’m talking about.  This is where side effects begin to emerge and where you need to be aware of what they are.  Attitude can get hostile, sex drive can be out of control, sperm production can be non-existent (with prolonged use) and headaches can prevail. Also, the more you take, the more water you’ll have just beneath the skin to smooth out your appearance.  It really depends upon how vain you are.

Deca Durabolin used effectively to treat muscle wasting associated with HIV

Deca Durabolin is the brand name for an injectable steroid originally produced by Organon in 1962. It contains the active hormone Nandrolone with the Decanoate ester. The Nandrolone hormone is highly anabolic and produces very few side effects when used in reasonable doses, the Decanoate ester is a fatty acid which slows its release into the body over several weeks.

Nandrolone is technically a derivative of testosterone but it is created by removing the carbon atom at the 19th position of the steran nucleus, which creates a completely different family of steroids (the 19nor-testosterone family). It is one of the most versatile steroids on the market today, and can be used successfully in both bulking and cutting cycles, while in the clinical setting it has been used effectively to treat muscle wasting associated with HIV and AIDS. Deca Durabolin doesn’t produce many estrogenic side effects due to its low rate of aromatization (metabolic conversion to estrogen via the aromatase enzyme). Its ability to improve collagen synthesis and bone mineral content  is highly prized by bodybuilders and athletes who may have nagging injuries or joint pains.

But it’s not just Deca’s healing attributes which have made it such a popular steroid; bodybuilders and athletes have found Deca Durabolin to be one of the best all-around steroids for gaining lean mass and we see this played out in various clinical studies also. Muscle gained with this product is very solid with minimal bloat, as long as dosages are kept reasonable.

Because Deca Durabolin is so popular, that it’s important to note that it is considered a very long acting steroid, but the research is very inconsistent regarding just how long lasting it is. In healthy, normal, men one study found an average half-life of 8 days (but the range was from 5 to 17 days) at a dose of 50 mg, while another study found an average half-life of 5.9 days at a dose of 200 mg, another found an average of 7.7 days at a dose of 100 mg, and a final study  looked at showed an average of 7.1, 11.7, and 11.8 days depending heavily on the dose being either 50 mg, 100mg, or 150 mg, respectively.

In a practical sense, people will still shoot Deca once a week, but I thought it was important to show that typical half-life charts don’t factor in every single dose or dose response.

And, to further complicate things, the milligram per milliliter concentration and location of injection site heavily determines the actual blood plasma concentration achieved by a single shot of Nandrolone Decanoate: gluteal shots of Nandrolone Decanoate give you higher blood plasma levels of the parent hormone, and more highly concentrated preperations (mg/ml) also give you a higher overall blood level – and will probably provide better results, all things being equal.

Practical Use: Deca-Durabolin is easily the most versatile anabolic steroid on the market today (testosterone just misses that mark by virtue of the fact that women need to avoid it). It can be used in cutting cycles as well as bulking cycles, depending on the other compounds (and diet) one chooses.

Deca Duaraoblin Side Effects: Deca is one of the most mild steroids on the market in terms of side effects. Men who are very prone to hair loss will sometimes experience this with Deca-Durabolin, and gynecomastia is possible with higher doses. The most common side effect experienced with Deca-Durabolin is sexual dysfunction, although most users simply stack it with testosterone and avoid this entirely.

Used By: Because it’s so versatile, Deca-Durabolin is used by athletes, bodybuilders, and powerlifters alike. Women have found it to be mild enough to use at low doses, and many champion physiques of both genders have been built with its use. The only people who would be well advised to avoid Deca are drug tested athletes, as Nandrolone metabolites are detectable in urine for up to 18 months after the last injection.

Deca Durabolin Dosage: For men, an average dose of Deca-Durabolin is in the range of 200-600 milligrams. In women, 50 milligrams is a much more reasonable dose, although I have seen women go up to 100 milligrams without experiencing intolerable side effects.

Deca Duraboline Cycle: Deca-Durabolin works well with virtually every steroid. A good cutting cycle could include Deca, Winstrol, and testosterone – while a good bulking cycle could include Deca, Testosterone, and Anadrol.
