The androgenic and anabolic action of the steroid Drostanolone is available in the form of propionate (dipropionate) and enanthate, esters that determine the characteristics of the drug. It is known to a large mass of consumers under the trade names Masteron, Permastril, Metormon, Drolban. Both esters invariably affect the body, but are absorbed into the blood at different rates. The duration of action of enanthate is about 15 days, and the effect of propionate occurs already on the second or fourth day after injection.
Drostanolone has a moderate anabolic effect, but a high androgenic effect, it is an aromatase inhibitor with no effect on the conversion of testosterone to estrogen. The steroid is a derivative of dihydrotestosterone, it has a similar effect, it has a chemical formula of 2-alpha-dihydrotestosterone propionate. Enanthate and drostanolone were originally used exclusively as a treatment for breast cancer, but were discontinued due to the high risk of virilization. Used for sports purposes, it is produced, as a rule, in ampoules with a volume of 50 and 100 mg / ml.
How does drostanolone work?
The effect of a steroid drug is manifested:
- moderate diuretic effect;
- suppression of catabolic processes;
- increase in strength indicators;
- a pronounced, scientifically proven fat-burning effect, when during “experimental” research up to 5-7% of fat mass is lost after the end of the course;
- maintaining the muscle volume gained while taking the steroid, gaining muscle relief, hardness and density.
Athletes often take the drug during drying, as well as when preparing for competitions.
Masteron is a gentle and effective fat burner, although muscle mass, relief and dryness are quite easy to achieve, you just need to exercise regularly, eat rationally, forget about carbohydrates and, if necessary, to dilute the course with another steroid. . It may seem that the requirements to unleash the full potential of Masteron are too great. Masteron is not for lazy people, to achieve the effect declared by the manufacturer, you will have to sweat very well, although this is only a pleasure for professional bodybuilders.
How popular is Masteron?
First of all, every bodybuilder wonders what the result of a steroid with a unique feature is – its androgenic effect significantly exceeds the anabolic effect. This is completely beyond the reach of most steroids.
Masteron easily and quickly burns fat cells, removes excess fluid from the body and prevents it from accumulating in the future. What gives this steroid action to the bodybuilder? The muscles become very dry and hard, the body takes relief difficult to compete.
Solo masteron course
To get the maximum effect from the use of enanthate and propionate, bodybuilders take 400-500 milligrams of the steroid per week. An increase in dosage does not lead to a noticeable increase in physiological parameters, but can provoke a rapid and rapid development of negative side effects.
The solo course involves the introduction of propionate three times a week or every other day, and enanthate – only once every seven days. The use of a steroid should be started after consulting a sports doctor, having carried out a diagnosis of the condition of the whole organism. Throughout the course, it is essential to pass the corresponding tests, making adjustments to the program.
Side effects
The pronounced fat-burning property, due to the low anabolic index, also has a negative side. It is manifested by an increased risk of androgenic reaction.
Masteron may be accompanied by the following side effects:
- increased hair loss;
- enlarged prostate;
- high level of aggression;
- acne
- virilization.
The steroid has a minimal toxic effect on the liver, does not retain fluids in the body and does not cause an increase in blood pressure.
An excellent feature of the drug is the prevalence of androgenic activity over anabolic activity. Bodybuilders, as a rule, particularly appreciate the fat-burning effect of the steroid. The action enhances the intake of drugs that compensate for the androgenic effect. Thus, it turns out that the combined method brings the greatest weight loss. Solo courses, if you exceed the recommended dose, are more likely to have negative side effects. Women are not recommended to take the drug, as the risks of virilization are high. For men, the steroid helps muscles become more prominent, firmer.
