General information

Oxandrolone is another derivative of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), but this anabolic steroid has nothing to do with the “parent” of this anabolic steroid. Thus, oxandrolone does not have androgenic activity, is not an antiestrogen and does not contribute to the development of acne, excessive hair growth in the body and hair loss on the head. It doesn’t even increase aggression.

However, oxandrolone has two absolutely amazing properties. First, it can dramatically increase creatine phosphate synthesis by muscle fibers, which can significantly increase strength without a substantial increase in mass. Second, oxandrolone is the most potent anti-catabolic agent of all androgens and anabolic steroids (AAS), inhibiting cortisol synthesis and secretion.

What is postcyclic therapy?

PCT, or postcycle therapy, which stands for “postcycle therapy,” is a complex of drugs and sports supplements used to prevent or minimize side effects after treatment with steroids or prohormones.

This latter property makes oxandrolone almost essential for use during post-cycle therapy (PCT), when cortisol levels are usually markedly elevated. It is also not bad to regularly include oxandrolone in the “bulk collection” process. Finally, oxandrolone will be useful in “drying”. Firstly, it greatly accelerates the breakdown of fat, especially in the abdomen, and secondly, it helps to remove excess water from the body.

When is the best time to start?

It is recommended to take oxandrolone on a ladder course. It is recommended to start with the minimum dose (20 mg) and gradually increase to the optimal dose. Dividing the daily routine into parts will help balance the hormonal background, reducing the likelihood of failure and side effects. PCT after oxandrolone begins 2 days after the end of the course. It is taken with tamoxifen – 10 milligrams a day (to restore endogenous testosterone levels), 1-2 weeks. Properly chosen sports nutrition increases its effectiveness.
