Proviron (Masterlone, Masterolone, Mesterolone, DHT)

General

Proviron (Masterolone) is an oral form of 1-methylated DHT (methyl-dihydrotestosterone). This is very strong androgen which is 3-4 times more effective than “normal” testosterone, it possesses no anabolic characteristics and no capabilities of converting to estrogen. One would imagine then that mesterolone would be a perfect drug to enhance strength and achieve some progress. Unfortunately, there is a control mechanism for DHT in the body. When levels get too high it is being converted to an inactive compound. This inactive compound can equally be transformed in the opposite direction to dihydrotestosterone by the same enzyme when low levels of DHT are detected. But this means that very large amounts of this substance are useless to achieve muscle hypertrophy. Very common usage is fighting estrogen just like with Tamoxifen Citrate or Clomiphen.

Applications

Proviron has four distinct applications in bodybuilding.

Anti-estrogen

First of all, proviron serves as anti-estrogen, it prevents  aromatization of other steroids as a process and also partially blocks estrogen receptors. In this instance its action differs from tamoxifen, which only blocks  estrogen receptors. Thus side effects such as gynecomastia and increased water retention are successfully eliminated. Proviron hits the root of the problem, while Tamoxifen fights only symptoms and should be used for longer period until all excessive estrogens are washed out of the body.

Expanding the capacity of testosterone

The second application is based on expanding the capacity of testosterone. 97-98% of testosterone in the body of a healthy person is inactive and bound to certain proteins. Proviron in this case replaces testosterone, thus more of latter is being released into the blood and helps to build muscle mass.

Improve quality of muscles

Thirdly, mesterolone is added in pre-competition cycles to increase the rigidity and quality muscle volume. It also decreases water retention in the body, giving the user a visual effect of a dry, high-quality, lean muscles. Proviron is often used not only among bodybuilders, but even the actors and models, who use it to acquire the necessary sportive form before the shooting. Just like the another methylated DHT structure called drostanolone, mesterolone is particularly strong in achieving this effect.

Recovery of sexual activity

Finally, Proviron is used for recovery of sexual activity during the cycles of steroids such as trenbolone and nandrolone, which decrease libido. Proviron is also commonly prescribed by doctors for people with low levels of testosterone, or patients with chronic impotence.

Mesterolone is preferred by many athletes because it has virtually no side effects on men. In large doses it can cause some virilization symptoms in women. Doses of 25 and 250 mg per day shall be applied without adverse effects. 50 mg per day is usually sufficient to reach goals for any of four applications that we mentioned above. Thus, there is no need to increase the dose.

Male athletes should prefer Proviron to Nolvadex. With Proviron the athlete achieve better muscle hardness, as androgen level is increased and the concentration of estrogen remains low. This is particularly evident when preparing for a competition in conjunction with diet.

However, one should be aware that the loss of strength caused by decreasing of natural testosterone production after the cycle is not cured. Athlete should use other drugs like HCG and :clomiphen: for it.

Dosage and usage

Proviron is very effective compound, daily dosage of 50 mg is sufficient although some men do 100 and even 250 mg/day. Athlete normally takes one 25 mg tablet in the morning- and the other one at the evening. In some cases, even one 25mg tablet is enough. Combo of 50 mg Proviron per day and 20 mg of Nolvadex per day results in almost complete suppression of estrogen. However, keep in mind that estrogen is not absolute Evil, it also plays important role in muscle building. Complete suppression of estrogen means lower gains, so one should keep a balance and decrease estrogen level only to the point when it makes no side effects but still produces positive ones.

In the past athletes used it throughout the whole season to make dry and fit outlook all the time, however, we don’t advice such practices nowadays. Clenbuterol / Albuterol (Ventolin, Salbutamol) can do the same but with less side effects.

Stacking

Proviron is an oral 1-alpha-alkylated substance mostly used as an anti-estrogen drug. Mesterolone may actually contribute to gains. It is taken daily in 50-100 mg doses.

The best stack is certainly with Testosterone.  This results in qualitive, lean gains as free testosterone levels are increased and less converted to estrogen.

Of course, proviron is also used in many other stacks, for instance with Dianabol (methandrostenolone), Boldenone Undecylenate and Nandrolone Decanoate in order to reduce estrogen-related activities increase muscle hardness.

Combo of Proviron with Boldabol (Equipoise) makes dead lock for a cutting stack. Sometimes it’s even become possible to add Deca-Durabolin into that cutting stack, preferably along with Winstrol Depot (Stanozolol).

It’s good idea to use proviron with Nandrolone Decanoate, because Nandrolone temporarily decreases libido.

Detection times

2 months

Side effects with proviron

When athlete do it for more than 10-12 weeks it may slightly increase liver values although in general  proviron is well tolerated by it. Side effects of Proviron for men with a dose of 2 – 3 tablets are very small, so that Proviron, in combination with a steroid cycle can be relatively safe to be taken over several weeks. DHT can increase blood pressure. High dosages may lead to premature baldness and sexual overstim

Ulation, which leads to prolonged erection. Since this state is painful and can cause penis damage, it makes sense to reduce the dose or discontinue its use altogether.

Only 34% of recipients observe minor decrease in endocrine glands function. Proviron did not stop work of HPTA (glands) for noone who took the drug for a year at a dose of 150 mg / day. In general it’s pretty safe and has little impact on the work of HPTA.

There is no effect on the rate LH (luteinizing hormone) and FSH (stimulating hormone) at a dosage of 100-150 mg / day.

Proviron does not substitute Clomid as hormone therapy, but not causing problems, too. The impact of mesterolone does not produce any changes in the levels of steroids, thyroid hormones, gonadotropins and prolactin.

Female usage

Female athletes should be cautious while using Proviron, since it does not exclude all possible androgenic side effects. Women are advised not to take more than one 25 mg tablet / day. Higher doses and prolonged use for more than 4 weeks increases the risks of virilization. Female athletes who do not have a problem with Proviron, achieve good results by taking 25 mg of Proviron per day and 20 mg of Nolvadex per day. They say that in combination with a diet it accelerates fat burning and rapid hardening of muscles.

Female athletes who naturally have higher estrogen levels, often add Proviron to steroid cycle, which results in increasing of muscle density. In the past female athletes did proviron whole year in order to look lean, especially before contests and starring. Nowadays, Clenbuterol / Albuterol (Ventolin, Salbutamol) do the same work, because they do not cause virilization effects.

Advantages

There are several reliable sources where you can buy anabolic steroids:

Parabolan (trenbolone hexahydrobenzylcarbonate)

General

Parabolan is trenbolone cyclohexylmethylcarbonate. The half-life of a steroid ester is mostly dependent on its ratio of fat solubility to water solubility: the longer chain the ester, the higher this ratio, and the longer the half-life. This particular carbonate could be most closely compared with an enanthate ester; the half-life is probably a little less than week.

An amp (76 mg trenbolone cyclohexylmethylcarbonate) is comparable only to 58 mg of trenbolone acetate. (The acetate is a little more potent, more effective per milligram, because the acetate ester is lighter and therefore a higher percentage of the weight is trenbolone.)

The properties of Parabolan are the same as trenbolone acetate (Finaject) except for longer half life. It’s not fat-burner by itself but rather extremely powerful anabolic steroid with androgenic effect. It’s three times stronger by all it’s properties comparing to testosterone esters.

You may associate trenbolone with the long deceased Finajet, a veterinary steroid that was popular in the United States during the 1980’s. Finajet contained trenbolone acetate, which was a very fast acting form of this drug. Parabolan contains a much different ester, trenbolone hexahydrobenzylcarbonate. This ester extends the activity of the drug for more than two weeks, a more suitable design for human use. Parabolan is packaged only in ampoules of l.5ml, one ampule per a box. Each ampoule contains 76mg of trenbolone hexahydrobenzylcarbonate, equivalent to 50mg of trenbolone base (French drugs commonly make this calculation).

Trenbolone is a very potent androgen with strong anabolic activity. It is well suited for the rapid buildup of strength and muscle mass, usually providing the user exceptional results in a relatively short time period. The anabolic effect of this drug is often compared to popular bulking agents such as testosterone or Dianabol, with one very important difference. Trenbolone does not convert to estrogen. This is indeed a very unique compound since mass drugs, almost as a rule, will aromatize (or cause other estrogen related troubles) heavily.

When we think of taking milder (regarding estrogen) steroids we usually expect much weaker muscle growth, but not so with Parabolan. Here we do not have to worry about estrogen related side effects, yet still have an extremely potent mass/strength drug. There is no noticeable water retention, so the mass gained during a cycle of Parabolan will be very hard and defined (providing fat levels are low enough). Gynecomastia is also not much of a concern, so there shouldn’t be any need to addition an anti-estrogen if trenbolone is the only steroid administered.

The high androgen level resulting from this steroid, in the absence is excess estrogen, can also accelerate the burning of body fat. The result should be a much tighter physique, hopefully without the need for extreme dieting. Parabolan can therefore help bring about an incredibly hard, ripped physique and is an ideal product for competitive bodybuilders. This is of course no secret, and when available on the market, Parabolan was the most sought after contest preparation drug. Now this it is no longer produced, acceptable substitutes for this purpose include of course veterinary trenbolone acetate preparations, as well as Halotestin, Proviron and Masteron.

Trenbolone is notably more potent than testosterone, and has an effect that is as much as three times as strong on a milligram for milligram basis. Likewise we can expect to see some level of androgenic side effects with use of this compound. Oily skin, aggressive behavior, acne and hair loss are therefore not uncommon during a cycle with this steroid. The androgenic nature of this drug of course makes it a very risky item for women to use, the chance for virilization symptoms extremely high with such a potent androgen.

Side Effects of Parabolan

It’s not toxic for kidneys- that’s are good news. The bad ones are that there are reports of sexual dysfunction (which can be subsided if you stack Parabolan with testosterone) and gynocomastia. Gynocomastia symptoms include bloating and an increase in breast tissue. On the opposite note, it’s not necessarily a great choice for women because it can have strong virilization effects.

It can also lower thyroid levels, so it’s important to take a T3 to minimize the effects of this.

Parabolan is also known to increase aggression. People may like this when it helps them prepare for and compete in and event, but it’s not an isolated aggression and can affect all aspects of life. The substance does not cause uncontrollable “roid rage” despite the hype to that effect often seen.

Coughs, insomnia and night sweats and decreased cardiovascular capacity are also common.

Characteristics

Parabolan is another trenbolone product, in the same nature as Finaplix, so what’s been said for finaplix pretty much goes for Parabolan as well. It differs distinctly in a few characteristics. Parabolan is a different ester that acts considerably longer, meaning you could go longer without injecting. But since it comes in 76 mg vials and few people take the time to inject multiple vials at once, its still used on a frequent basis. 2 or 3 days between injections seems to be the general norm. Leading up to a similar build-up of 228-304 mg per week.

Another difference is that Parabolan was specifically designed for human use. That would in itself make it a better choice than Finaplix because it needn’t be prepared and the chance of faulty, painful, home-brewed injections decreases. But since it hasn’t been manufactured in a while and legit lots only surface from time to time the price of the stuff is quite high. As more bodybuilders become aware of the absence of Finaject and that it is very hard to fake Finaplix, Parabolan is also being faked quite a bit. Usually fake trenbolone compounds are a low-dose testosterone propionate product. This has often lead to the belief that trenbolone causes gyno and other estrogenic effects, but that simply isn’t true.

This belief has taken on a life of its own though. Making theories pop up all over the place. The only one that made sense, from some point at least, was that trenbolone was progestagenic and acted at the progesterone receptor. Its structure is similar to nandrolone, so this is a logical assumption. But even then, for progesterone activation to cause things like gyno, it needs to act as an estrogen agonist. It needs an estrogen as mediator. Since trenbolone doesn’t cause aromatization, any sighting of gyno with trenbolone use should be regarded as a misinterpretation and is most likely to blame on another compound, an aromatizable one. So while trenbolone may increase the risk of gyno when stacked with heavily aromatizing substances, its simply not true that trenbolone alone causes gyno.

Stacking

Trenbolone is relatively safe steroid all in all. There is some concern about kidney toxicity, but usually exaggerated. The beauty of trenbolone is that its one steroid that has it all:

  • Its highly effective in its own
  • Provides all lean gains which are fairly easy to maintain and isn’t very prone to cause side-effects.

Parabolan is the more expensive way to go, but definitely the most userfriendly as you side-step the need to make your own home-brewed concoction and any risk of involuntary infections and abscesses. Parabolan is quite hard to come by however, and should you find a real one, its not all that cheap.

Trenbolone doesn’t have to be stacked per use, its quite effective on its own and as such is quite popular with beginners as it delivers good lean gains without extra costs. 76 mg every two  days and you are done. But some prefer to stack it, and justly so. As a strong androgen mediator it stacks particularly well with base steroids such as Nandrolone Decanoate, Boldabol (Equipoise) and Methenolone. Nandrolone for bulking, Methenolone for cutting and Boldenone can be used for either. As with basically any steroid, it stacks quite well with all forms of testosterone as well, most notably testosterone propionate during a cutting cycle.

Trenbolone is preferred over Winstrol Depot (Stanozolol), Masteron, Proviron (Masterlone) and so forth in strength, so simply upping the dose to every day would be a better choice than stacking it with these compounds. Great gains can be obtained using oxymetholone or methandienone with trenbolone. Of course for short stacks of 6 odd weeks, and taking the necessary precautions. You need to use Nolva and probably add some winstrol if you are stacking with Oxymetholone, since both oxy and tren have some progestagenic activity. So all in all a very useful, powerful and versatile steroid in use.

There is little or no need to stack secondary drugs with Parabolan. It does not aromatize. There is some concern as to Parabolan being progestagenic, so you should you opt to stack it with an aromatizable compound it may worsen potential gynocomastia so adding Winstrol Depot (Stanozolol) or Nolvadex, or even both to such a stack may be wise. But in itself or in a non-aromatizing stack this is not necessary. The use for post-cycle estrogen antagonists is limited as well, so Nolva or clomid to boost natural test will have little use. It is a very strong androgen receptor agonist however, so perhaps using some HCG from the second to the before last week of a cycle may help you retain more gains and prevent testicular shrinkage.

Dosage and usage

For maximum effect daily dosage of ORAL primobolan should be 200-300 mg, minimal effective dosage is 100-125mg. Administer it throughout a day.

For injectable parabolan common dosage is 152-228 mg (2-3 amps)  every 3-4 days or 76-100 mg (1 amp) every two days.

Female usage

Not recommended. This is too androgenic product which will cause virilization effects.
