Find out all the positive and negative aspects of using steroids in female bodybuilding. Only practical advice from world stars. If women use steroids inadvertently, then this can lead to serious negative changes in their body. No girl in her right mind wants to become masculine. If you are a professional bodybuilder and decide to start using AAS, then do it carefully and deliberately. Now we will talk about the use of doping in women's bodybuilding from A to Z.
How can women use steroids safely?
If you are inexperienced in doping, then start with the lowest dosage of drugs that have a short half-life. For example, if you consider it necessary to use Nandrolone, then start with Phenylpropionate.
Masculinization largely depends on the individual characteristics of the body, and side effects may appear from different dosages of anabolic steroids. Start using injectable AAS at half the dose that works best for you. After that, you can gradually increase it, but no more than 25 percent at a time.
What steroids can women use?
It should be said right away that not all AAS are for the female body. For example, Oxandrolone was created just for use by women and even children. Girls should use solo steroid courses or combine them with non-androgenic fat burners. The duration of such cycles is selected individually and most often does not exceed one and a half months. Let's take a look at the drugs that can be used by girls.
Anavar (Oxandrolone)
This steroid can be considered ideal for girls and beginner athletes. It is not capable of causing virilization and does not negatively affect the growth zones of young people. The duration of the use of Anavar by girls can be a maximum of two months with a daily dose of 10 to 20 milligrams.
Primobolan
Primobolan is based on the active ingredient, methenolone. This steroid, like Oxandrolone, is well accepted by the female body. Even at high doses, amounting to about 0.4 grams per week, side effects do not appear. However, you should still use smaller amounts of this drug, namely 0.1 grams per week.
Oxymetholone
This drug is increasingly used in traditional medicine, including for the treatment of women. When using about 150 milligrams of the drug, the side effects did not appear in the girls. At the same time, we do not recommend using more than 50 milligrams of Oxymetholone daily.
Boldenone
When using large dosages for a long period of time, the development of virilization is possible. Safe doses should include weekly administration of 0.1 to 0.2 grams for four or five weeks. It should also be said that in most cases, the female body perceives the combination of Boldenone Undecylenate and Methandriol Dipropionate (Meprobolone) better in comparison with Boldenone itself.
Testosterone Propionate
This ester of the male hormone can be used by girls, but you should be careful when taking it. Many experts are sure that, in comparison with Nandrolone, Testosterone Propionate is a safer anabolic for girls. Propionate should be administered no more than 4-6 times throughout the week at a dosage of 25 to 50 milligrams.
Turinabol
When used in low doses for a relatively short period, Turinabol will not cause side effects. This fact has been proven by many years of practice.
Nandrolone
In the middle of the last century, this steroid was very often used by physicians in the treatment of women. Until about the beginning of the nineties, Nandrolone was actively used by athletes. This continued until the moment when two studies were carried out that seriously shaken the position of the anabolic. During the first of them, 50 milligrams of the drug was used, administered every third or fourth day. As a result, half of the subjects showed symptoms of virilization. In the second study, the results were even worse, and virilization manifested itself in all participants in the experiment. For the sake of fairness, we note that the dosages used in the study are not mentioned.
But 0.1 gram of Nandrolone for a week, namely this dosage was used in the first study, is very high for the female body. Around the same time, another experiment was conducted, during which the participants took 30 milligrams of the drug for two weeks. No side effects were recorded. If you decide to try Nandrolone, then proceed from these numbers. If you develop virilization, stop using Nandrolone immediately.
Anti-estrogens for female bodybuilders
It makes no sense for girls to use aromatase inhibitors, and this should be clear to everyone. For restorative therapy, drugs such as Clomid or Tamoxifen, belonging to the group of estrogen receptor blockers, should be used. Tamoxifen and especially Clomid are very often used in the treatment of cancer in women. Thanks to these drugs, you can restore the work of the endocrine system. They should be used in the same doses as men.
Non-androgenic fat burners in women's bodybuilding
Due to certain physiological differences, the thighs and buttocks are the most problematic areas on the female body in terms of fat deposition. Recall that in men, such a place is the abdominal region. For this reason, the use of drugs by girls such as Ephedra and Clenbuterol may not be effective, since they eliminate fat primarily in the abdominal area. We can advise the use of Lipostabil (topical administration), Metformin (will reduce insulin resistance) and Topiramate. The latter drug looks the most promising, although its research is still pending.
