Substance: methandrostenlone / methandienone
"Dianabol (1 7-alpha-methyl-1
7beta-hydroxil-androsta-1.4dien-3-on) is an orally applicable steroid
with a great effect on the protein metabolism. The effect of Dianabol
promotes the protein synthesis, thus it supports the buildup of protein.
This effect mani-fests itself in a positive nitrogen balance and an
improved well-be-ing. Dianabol has a very strong anabolic and androgenic
effect which manifests itself in an enormous buildup of strength and
muscle mass in its users. Dianabol is simply a "mass steroid"
which works quickly and reliably. A weight gain of 2 - 4 pounds per week
in the first six weeks is normal with Dianabol. The additional body
weight consists of a true increase in tissue (hyper-trophy of muscle
fibers) and, in particular, in a noticeable retention of fluids.
Dianabol aromatizes easily so that it is not a very good drug when one
works out for a competition. Excessive water reten-tion and aromatizing
can be avoided in most cases by simultaneously taking Nolvadex and
Proviron so that some athletes are able to use Dianabol until three to
four days before a competition. An effective daily dose for athletes is
around 15-40 mg/day. The dosage of Dianabol taken by the athlete should
always be coordinated with his individual goals. Steroid nov-ices do not
need more than 15-20 mg of Dianabol per day since this dose is
sufficient to achieve exceptional results over a period of 8-10 weeks.
When the effect begins to slow down in this group after about eight
weeks and the athlete wants to continue his treatment, the dosage of
Dianabol should not be increased but an injectable steroid such as
Deca-Durabolin in a dosage of 200 mg/week or Primobolan in a dosage of
200 mg/week should be used in addition to the Dianabol dose; or he may
switch to one of the two above-mentioned compounds. The use of
testosterone is not recommended at this stage as the athlete should
leave some free play for later. For those either impatient or more
advanced, a stack of Dianabol 20-30 mg/day and Deca-Durabolin 200-400
mg/day achieves miracles. Those who are more interested in strength and
less in body mass can combine Dianabol with either Oxandrolone or
Winstrol tablets. The additional intake of an injectable steroid does,
however, clearly show the best results. To build up mass and strength,
Sustanon or Testosterone enanthate at 250-mg+/week and/ or
Deca-Durabolin 200 at mg +/week are suitable. To prepare, for a
competition, Dianabol has only limited use since it causes distinct
water retention in many athletes and due to its high conversion rate
into estrogen it complicates the athlete's fat breakdown. Those of you
without this problem or who are able to control it by taking Nolvadex or
Proviron, in this phase should use Dianabol together with the proven
Parabolan, Winstrol Depot, Masteron, Oxandrolone, etc.
Since Dianabol's half-life time is only 3.2 - 4.5 hours (1) application
at least twice a day is necessary to achieve a somewhat even
concen-tration of the substance in the blood. It is recommended that the
tablets be taken during meals so that pos-sible gastrointestinal pains
can be avoided. Dianabol reaches the blood after 1-3 hours. A simple
application of only 10 mg results in a 5-fold increase in the average
testosterone concentration in the male.Women should not use Dianabol
because, due to its distinct andro-genic component, considerable
virilization symptoms can occur. Although Dianabol has many potential
side effects, they are rare with a dosage of up to 20 mg/day. Since
Dianabol is I 7-alpha alky-lated it causes a considerable strain on the
liver. In high dosages and over a longer period of time, Dianabol is
liver-toxic. Even a dosage of only 10 mg/day can increase the liver
values; after discontinu-ance of the drug, however, the values return to
normal. Since Dianabol quickly increases the body weight due to high
water re-tention, a high blood pressure and a faster heartbeat can occur,
some-times requiring the intake of an antihypertensive drug such as
Catapresan. Additive intake of Nolvadex and Proviron might be necessary
as well, since Dianabol strongly converts into estro-gens and in some
athletes causes gynecomastia ("bitch tits") or worsens an
already existing condition. Because of the strongly androgenic component
and the conversion into dihydrotestosterone, Dianabol, in some athletes,
can trigger a seri-ous acne vulgaris on the face, neck, chest, back, and
shoulders since the sebaceous gland function is stimulated. If a
hereditary predispo-sition exists Dianabol can also accelerate a
possible hair loss which again can be explained by the high conversion
of the substance into dihydrotestosterone. Another disadvantage is that,
after discontinuance of the compound, a considerable loss of strength
and mass often occurs since the water stored during the intake is again
excreted by the body. In high dosages of 5 0 mg +/day aggres-sive
behavior in the user can occasionally be observed which, if it only
refers to his workout, can be an advantage. In order toavoid
uncontrolled actions, those who have a tendency to easily lose, their
temper should be aware of this characteristic when taking a high D-bol
dosage. Despite all of these possible symptoms Dianabol instills in most
athletes a "sense of well-being anabolic" which improves the
mood and appetite and in many users, together with the ob-tained results,
leads to an improved level of consciousness and a higher self-confidence.
