Description

Dianabol is another name for the oral steroid methandrostenolone or methandienone. It is a derivative of testosterone which has strong anabolic and light androgenic properties. This compound was first made available in 1960 and quickly became the most popular and widely used anabolic steroid in all forms of athletics.

This is probably because it is easy to use and very efficient. In the United States, the production of Dianabol had a very rapid history, exploded for a while and then quickly died out. In the late 1980s, many were nervous when the last American generics were withdrawn from pharmacies and the medical community no longer found a legitimate use for the drug. But the fact that Dianabol has been out of the US market for over 10 years has not diminished its popularity.

It is still the most widely used oral steroid on the black market in the United States. If there are countries that manufacture this steroid, it likely will remain so. Like testosterone and Anadrol 50, Dianabol is a powerful steroid, but it also has some notable side effects. Initially, methandrostenolone is quite estrogenic. Gynecomastia is also often a problem during treatment and can occur relatively early in the cycle (especially at higher doses). At the same time, water retention can become a significant problem and lead to a noticeable loss of muscle definition as water and subcutaneous fat accumulate.

Therefore, sensitive people may want to keep estrogen under control by adding an anti-estrogen such as Nolvadex® and / or Proviron. A stronger Arimidex® (anti-aromatase) would be a better option, but it can also be quite expensive compared to standard estrogen maintenance treatments.
