Testosterone Propionate 1 vial/10 ml (100 mg/1 ml)

The main advantage of Testosterone Propionate over other testosterone esters lies in the set of effective dry weight of the athlete. The rollback phenomenon at the end of the cycle is actually negligible. Here lies a direct relationship with the fact that the anabolic does not retain fluid. Muscle growth, although slow, compared to other esters, but the muscles are of very high quality.

Steroid Profile Testosterone Propionate

• anabolic activity - 100% of testosterone;
• androgenic activity - 100% of testosterone (high);
• aromatization (conversion to estrogens) - high (there is a need for antiestrogen);
• suppression of the axis of the hypothalamus-pituitary-testicles - pronounced;
• toxicity to the liver - absent;
• method of administration - injections;
• duration of action - 2-3 days;
• elimination half-life and mrt (in / m) - 0.8 days and 1.5 days, respectively;
• the peak activity of propionate falls on the day of injection and gradually decreases within 24-36 hours after the injection;
• detection time - 40-60 days.

Effects of Taking Testosterone Propionate

Many athletes note the high effectiveness of the drug at a relatively affordable cost. This testosterone-based steroid allows the athlete to achieve such results from the cycle as:

1. giving the gained mass of sports relief and attractiveness;
2. acceleration of the processes of splitting body fat;
3. increase in sexual desire;
4. increase in strength indicators;
5. removal of excess fluid from the body.

Indications for taking Testosterone Propionate

In men - androgen deficiency after castration, eunuchoidism, impotence of hormonal origin, symptoms of male menopause (decreased libido, mental and physical activity), with acromegaly; with prostatic hypertrophy; osteoporosis caused by androgen deficiency; with angioedema forms of angina pectoris.

Among women - with menopausal vascular and nervous disorders in cases where estrogenic drugs are contraindicated (with tumors of the genital organs and mammary glands, uterine bleeding); simultaneously with radiation therapy for breast and ovarian cancer (usually in women under the age of 60); with dysfunctional uterine bleeding in elderly women.

Application and dosage of Testosterone Propionate

In order to get the maximum result from the course, it is necessary to consult a specialist who will help to draw up a course taking into account the individual characteristics of the athlete's body, the experience of taking sports pharmacology drugs and the final goals. On average, the dosage should not go beyond 50-100 mg per day.

The drug is used as a course of 4 to 6 weeks. For novice athletes who have not yet used steroids, it is recommended to administer a single dose of 50 mg every second day. Experienced athletes can consume up to 100 mg daily.

With Testosterone Propionate, it is recommended to use (starting from the second week of the course) antiestrogen drugs to eliminate the risk of gynecomastia and other side effects. It is also desirable to carry out post-cycle therapy after the end of the course.

Combined course

On drying, it combines well with stanozolol, trenbolone acetate, masteron, primobolan and some other drugs. Propionate is included in mixtures of testosterone esters such as sustanon or omnadren, as an indispensable component that allows you to immediately feel the work of the steroid.

An example of a cycle for beginner "chemists" for drying based on propionate:

• Propionate 50 mg every other day
• Winstrol 30mg daily, starting at 10mg and working up to optimal dose over 1 week.
• After 6 weeks, anabolic drugs should be canceled and PCT should be started after 3-4 days.

In this course, the synergism of the action of drugs is manifested, which means that the total effect of their simultaneous use is greater than the simple sum of the effects if they were used individually. Some experienced athletes will inject propionate locally into the target muscle, such as biceps, deltoids, and calves during mass work, but this approach has not been proven effective.

Side effects

The most common complaint is pain, irritation and redness at the injection site, which is further aggravated by the need for a high frequency of their implementation. Marked increase in aggression.

Side effects of testosterone propionate are due to the fact that it easily aromatizes and turns into estrogens and dihydrotestosterone, like any other testosterone ester, at high dosages it can cause:

• gynecomastia;
• acne
• baldness of the scalp;
• hirsutism (body hair);
• prostate enlargement (especially in the elderly);
• masculinization (in women);

The drug suppresses its own production of testosterone, which is usually restored at the end of the course after 2-3 months. With long courses, it is necessary to administer gonadotropin at 500 IU, 1 time per week, starting from 2. As practice shows, in moderate doses it does not affect the liver, kidneys, or any other internal organs. Not recommended for women due to high androgenic activity.

Origin of the drug

Testosterone propionate was discovered in 1936 and introduced for medical use in 1937. It was the first testosterone ester to be marketed and was the main form of testosterone used in medicine until the 1960s.
