Short description:
Nandrolone phenylpropionate is a structural modification of nandrolone in which phenylpropionate ester is added to nandrolone (via a 17-beta hydroxyl group). Once in the blood of a person, the ether is disconnected and free nandrolone begins to be transported through the bloodstream. Nandrolone phenylpropionate was developed in order to ensure peak release of the substance during the first few days after administration (from 24 to 48 hours).
The ether chain of phenylpropionate is about 2 times shorter than that of decanoate, due to which the active substance is absorbed faster into the blood and has less time of exposure to the body. Therefore, phenylpropionate has its advantages, in particular, ensuring faster development of results and a short period of action, which greatly reduces the frequency of side effects of nandrolone.
Nandrolone phenylpropionate began to be produced in the 60s by Organon. He was prescribed to patients in the treatment of muscular dystrophy, growth retardation, after surgery, for the prevention of breast cancer.
Effects:
- Qualitative muscle growth;
- Increase strength and performance;
- Enhancing immune defenses;
- Fat burning effect;
- Strengthening bones;
- Improving the function of joints and ligaments.
Side effects:
At high dosages, side effects such as water retention, body fat growth, and also gynecomastia may occur (due to progestogenic and estrogenic activities caused by nandrolone). Androgenic side effects (skin greasiness, acne, hair growth on the body and face, male pattern baldness and others) are also possible, but rarely and only at high dosages.
Application course:
For athletes allowed dosage of about 100-200 mg every other day (from 4 to 8 weeks of use). This is enough for most men to manifest the desired increase in physical strength and high-quality muscle growth. The main thing to remember is that nandrolone phenylpropionate is a fast-acting form of nandrolone, and it should be placed more often than decanoate.
Female dosages can reach up to 50-100 mg every 3 days. Nandrolone phenylpropionate is well suited for use by athletes, as it has a short period of withdrawal from the body, and therefore it is easy to avoid the development of virilization.
Combined courses: nandrolone phenylpropionate is often combined with turinabol, methandienone, stanozolol, testosterone propionate and drostanolone. Often, 3 or more drugs are combined at once, which is permissible, since the risks of side effects of the phenylpropionate itself are not significant.
