Many people, when playing sports, dream of improving their physical performance. Athletes often resort to using anabolic steroids. They are necessary at those moments when genetic possibilities are exhausted. In addition, novice athletes use anabolic steroids to accelerate muscle gain. Despite the purpose of taking steroids, you need to approach such courses with caution; be sure to carefully study the instructions before taking any drug. In this article we will talk about one of the most famous and oldest remedies, Nandrolone Phenylpropionate.

What it is

Nandrolone Phenylpropionate is a steroid with androgenic and anabolic effects. The drug stimulates protein production, activates its increased accumulation and production in muscle fibers. Under the influence of this anabolic steroid, a positive nitrogen balance is formed in the human body. In addition, Nandrolone phenylpropionate significantly reduces the loss of cellular protein. All this creates favorable conditions for increased muscle mass gain. It is also worth noting that when using the drug, calcium is better retained in the body and amino acids are absorbed more efficiently.

The steroid can significantly reduce pain in joints and ligaments, as well as improve their activity. That is why Nandrolone Phenyl is popular among athletes who experience constant stress on the musculoskeletal system. The substance is available in injection and tablet forms.

Combined courses

Such courses involve the use of Testosterone Phenylpropionate in conjunction with other steroid drugs. However, by using substances with less activity, it will be possible to achieve an increase in the anabolic and catabolic effect. The following medicinal substances increase the effect of ester:

Methenolone enanthate;
Drostanolone propionate;
Trenbolone acetate;
Stanozolol.

When choosing a dose of an additional product, you need to remember that the volume of ingredients should not exceed the weight of the drug, which is designed for solo use. The combined use of drugs and Totestosterone Phenylpropionate is enhanced by the effect of each other, which exceeds the results of taking hormones separately.

general information

The product has the following characteristics:

Anabolic activity -150% of testosterone.
Aromatization is present, but low.
Androgenic activity is low - 30% of testosterone.
Liver toxicity is absent at low dosages and minimal at high doses.
Suppression of the hypothalamic–pituitary–testicular axis is moderate–high.
Application: injections into the quadriceps or buttocks.
The active phase (how much is present in the body) is from 48 to 96 days.
Detection period: 15 to 18 months.

What is it used for?

“Nandrolone phenylpropionate” is positively characterized by both consumers and specialists. This is a fairly effective remedy that is used not only in sports, but also in classical medicine. The steroid is used to treat cachexia, protein anabolism disorders, severe injuries, burns and in the postoperative period.

In addition, the drug is prescribed for:

Fractures.
Osteoporosis.
With bone plastic surgery.
Progression of muscle dystrophy.
Slow bone formation.

In case of serious growth retardation, a course of Nandrolone Phenylpropionate can be prescribed to children.

Deca: effects of use

Deca is a classic anabolic steroid and has a more pronounced anabolic effect than testosterone. Has a longer lasting effect than testosterone. The duration of action is about two weeks (the duration of action depends on the ester). Thanks to the pronounced anabolic effect, athletes receive a good increase in muscle mass during the course. The quality of the mass and its quantity directly depend on the quality of nutrition and control of analyzes. Deca cancels out all its positive effects when used alone. Should only be taken in conjunction with testosterone.

Very effective not only for gaining weight, but also for increasing strength. It has a beneficial effect on joints (every second athlete in my care tells me this if they had problems before). Minimal effect on liver enzymes (non-toxic to the liver). Effectively reduces SHBG, which further reveals the effects of testosterone when used in combination.

Regarding application time:

Nandrolone decanoate (deca) should be used for at least 10-12 weeks
Nandrolone phenylpropionate should be used for at least 8 weeks.

Positive effects

The positive effects of this product on the body are:

Rapid increase in muscle mass due to increased protein synthesis.
Reduced catabolism processes.
Improved absorption of amino acids.
Low percentage of water retention in the connective tissues of the body.
Helps with calcium retention and absorption.
Strengthening collagen production.
Reducing pain in joints and ligaments, improving their condition.

There is an opinion among athletes that the effectiveness of a course of phenylpropionate and decanoate is different. Actually this is not true. Both types of steroid have the same agent, and the difference lies in the time the substances enter the blood.

Contraindications

Any anabolic steroid seriously affects the human body. Therefore, before using the drug, it is necessary to study the list of contraindications. Nandrolone Phenylpropionate is no exception. The reasons for refusing to take anabolic steroids are:

Hypertrophy.
Any form of prostatitis.
Oncology of the mammary glands or prostate gland.
Hypercalcemia.
Any acute liver disease.
Cardiac ischemia.
Heart attack.
Heart failure.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Indications for use

Testosterone Phenylpropionate has the following indications for use in men:

primary and secondary hypogonadism;
impotence;
manifestations of male menopause;
male infertility associated with spermatogenesis disorders;
lack of androgens in the body;
osteoporosis associated with a lack of androgens in the body.

Indications for use of the drug in women:

dysfunctional bleeding associated with hyperestrogenism;
mammary cancer;
uterine fibroids;
symptoms associated with menopause ;
endometriosis;
premenstrual syndrome;
osteoporosis.

Methods of application and regimen

There is a lot of controversy about how to take Phenylpropionate. Most often, athletes discuss the frequency of injections. Typically, the course lasts from six to eight weeks, and the recommended dosage is from 100 to 200 mg. Injections are given every other day. This dose and duration of use is enough for a quick gain of muscle mass, even for professional athletes. Experts do not recommend using the drug for a longer period of time. This may cause side effects.

Women can also use the steroid, but the dosage should be reduced to 50-100 milligrams. The break between injections should be at least three days. “Nandrolone” quickly leaves the body, so signs of virilization, that is, the manifestation of male characteristics (male body type, hair growth and low timbre of voice) can be noticed in time and the use of the drug can be discontinued.

Side effects

Nandrolone phenylpropionate is considered one of the safest and most reliable steroids. It has virtually no effect on the liver. Despite this, some people may experience side effects. Most often you can hear from consumers about the development of gynecomastia, water retention in the body and an increase in body fat.

If the drug is taken in large volumes and for a long time, you should additionally use a course of antiestrogens - this will help reduce the risk of unpleasant consequences. Impact dosages of anabolic steroids can result in a sharp increase in blood pressure. In addition, high doses can cause increased hair growth on the body, face, increased activity of the sebaceous glands and the appearance of acne.

Cross-drug interactions

Testosterone propionate phenylpropionate should be used taking into account its ability to react with other medications, which can lead to neutralization of therapeutic effects or their distortion.

Patients taking anticoagulants, when combining them with androgenic drugs, should regularly check their blood clotting parameters. This is especially important to do at the beginning of therapy and after discontinuation of the course.
Androgenic medications can reduce glucose levels and the need for insulin in diabetics.
Combining testosterone with adrenocorticotropic hormone or GCS increases the risk of developing peripheral edema. This is especially common in patients with liver or cardiovascular pathologies.
The therapeutic effect of testosterone is reduced by the influence of liver enzyme inducers. Such drugs are antiepileptic drugs, salicylates, anti-tuberculosis medications.

Combination

To increase the effectiveness of the drug, you can combine the steroid with other similar substances. A positive result is obtained by combining the course of “Nandrolone phenylpropionate” with “Testosterone propionate”. Combinations with Masteron, Methandrostenolone, Venstrol and Turinabol are also possible.

Advanced athletes combine up to three drugs. In this case, you should reduce the daily dosage, and before starting the course, consult with a specialist about the compatibility of anabolic steroids. Exceeding the weekly volume of drugs is highly undesirable.

Course "Nandrolone Phenylpropionate" and "Testosterone Propionate"

This course can be used for both cutting and gaining weight. The main rule that can help achieve maximum effect is proper nutrition, and steroids only speed up the process of achieving the goal. The drugs should be taken according to the 4+4 principle, that is, four weeks on and four weeks off. You can increase the duration of the course: 5+5, 6+6 and higher. The effectiveness of courses of less than three weeks decreases significantly.

Scheme of the course "Nandrolone" and "Testosterone Propionate":

Application time is four weeks.
The optimal dose of Phenylpropionate is 200 mg per week.
The optimal dose of Testosterone is 400 mg per week.
Restorative therapy is necessary (hormonal levels are brought back to normal with the help of Clomid and similar means).
You need to inject into the quadriceps and buttocks.
The break is four weeks.
Injections should be done in the morning (best in the buttocks or quadriceps).
The total number of drugs per course: Testosterone - 1600 mg, Nandrolone Phenylpropionate - 800 mg, Clomid - 650 mg.

Regimen: for four weeks, Nandrolone is taken 100 mg on Tuesday and Friday, and Testosterone is taken 100 mg on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday. From the fifth week, steroids are stopped and Clomid 50 mg is used for PCT every morning. In the sixth week, Clomid is used every other day. The injections are given in the same way: in the morning and 50 mg.

The course is designed for beginners. Experienced athletes may increase dosages. It is important to remember that Nandrolone should be 1.5-2 times less than Testosterone. It is not recommended to use Nandrolone in a volume of more than 600 mg per week. Instead of increasing the volume of injectables, you can add any tablet steroid to the course: Stanozolol, Turinabol, Methane.

Manufacturers

The oil injection is produced by Pharmacom - Republic of Moldova, under the name PharmaTest-PH 100. Another product version is manufactured by the English pharmaceutical company Axio Labs.

Reviews

Athletes have different opinions about the drug. You can find both positive and negative mentions on the forums. The negative ones include too frequent injections and short-term effectiveness. Sometimes users of the drug complain about water retention, but this is typical for many steroids: Sustanon, Nandrolone phenylpropionate, Testosterone propionate and other similar drugs. Often, this effect can be associated with an incorrect diet and training plan.

It is worth noting that if the correct dosage is observed, the risk of encountering negative consequences is minimal. Professional athletes recommend that beginners combine the use of the hormone with other drugs. This will cause a synergistic effect and reduce the occurrence of side effects.

In general, many bodybuilders characterize the drug as a good and safe means for improving strength performance and gaining muscle mass.

Advantages and disadvantages

Since the period of exposure is quite short, the incidence of unwanted side effects is reduced. After completing the course of treatment, it will not take much time to restore endogenous testosterone. “Nandrolone phenylpropionate” if negative symptoms appear or the course is simply not suitable for a particular person, you can simply stop taking it, and all adverse reactions will quickly disappear.

The main disadvantage can be focused on the fact that the metabolites of this substance are eliminated from the body for a very long time, so it cannot be taken by active athletes taking part in competitions. Also, sometimes consumers say that injections need to be done too often. However, this cannot be called some kind of global problem.
