Description:

Oxandrolone or also commonly known as Anavar in the market is an oral anabolic steroid derived from dihydrotestosterone. It was designed to have a very strong separation of anabolic and androgenic effect, and on significant estrogenic or progestational activity. Oxandrolone is noted for being quite mild as far as oral steroids are concerned, well tailored for the promotion of strength and quality muscle tissue gains without significant side effects. Milligram for milligram it displays as much as six times the anabolic activity of testosterone in assays, with significantly less androgenicity. This drug is a favorite of dieting bodybuilders and competitive athletes in speed/anaerobic performance sports, where its tendency for pure tissue gain (without fat or water retention) fits well with the desired goals. Anavar Oxandrolone is widely used by athletes and body builders who want quality gains and to avoid side effects as much as possible.

Side Effects (Estrogenic):

Oxandrolone is not aromatized by the body, and is not measurably estrogenic. Oxandrolone also offer no related progestational activity. An anti-estrogen is not necessary when using this steroid, as gynecomastia should not be a concern even among sensitive individuals. Since estrogen is the usual culprit with water retention, oxandrolone instead produces a lean, quality look to the physique with no fear or excess subcutaneous fluid retention. This makes it a favorable steroid to use during cutting cycles, when water and fat retention are major concerns. Oxandrolone is also very popular among athletes in strength/speed sports such as sprinting, swimming, and gymnastics. In such disciplines one usually does not want to carry around excess water weight, and may find the raw muscle-growth brought about by oxandrolone to be quite favorable over the lower quality mass gains of aromatizable agents.

Side Effects (Androgenic):

Although Anavar is classified as an anabolic steroid, androgenic side effects are still possible with this substance. This may include bouts of oily skin, acne, and body/facial hair growth. Anabolic/androgenic steroids may also aggravate male pattern hair loss. Women are also warned of the potential virilizing effects of anabolic/androgenic steroids. These may include a deepening of the voice, menstrual irregularities, changes in skin texture, facial hair growth, and clitoral enlargement. Oxandrolone is a steroid with low androgenic activity relative to its tissue-building actions, making the threshold for strong androgenic side effects comparably higher than with more androgenic agents such as testosterone and methandrostenolone.

The low androgenic activity of oxandrolone is due in part to it being a derivative of dihydrotestosterone. This creates a less androgenic steroid because the agent lacks the capacity to interact with the 5-alpha reductase enzyme and convert to a more potent "di-hydro" form. This is unlike testosterone, which is several times more active in androgen responsive target tissues such as the scalp, skin, and prostate (where 5-alpha reductase is present in high amounts) due its its conversion to DHT. In essence, oxandrolone has a more balanced level of potency between muscle and androgenic target tissues. This is a similar situation as is noted with Primobolan and Winstrol, which are also derived from dihydrotestosterone and not known to be very androgenic substances.

Side Effects (Hepatotoxicity):

Oxandrolone is a c17-alpha alkylated compound. This alteration protects the drug from deactivation by the liver, allowing a very high percentage of the drug entry into the bloodstream following oral adminstration. C17-alpha alkylated anabolic/androgenic steroids can be hepatotoxic. Prolonged or high exposure may result in liver damage. In rare instances life threatening dysfunction may develop. It is advisable to visit a physician periodically during each cycle to monitor liver function and overall health. Intake of c17-alpha alkylated steroids is commonly limited to 6 - 8 weeks, in an effort to avoid escalating liver strain.

When administering Oral Steroids we recommend you use our LIV-52 8 Week Steroid Liver Protector Kit which can be found under the category Liver Detoxification Kits.

Side Effects (Cardiovascular):

Anabolic/androgenic steroids can have deleterious effects on serum cholesterol. This includes a tendancy to reduce HDL (good) cholesterol values and increase LDL (bad) cholesterol values, which may shift the HDL to LDL balance in a direction that favors greater risk of arteriosclerosis. The relative impact of an anabolic/androgenic steroid on serum lipids is dependent on the dose, route of administration (oral vs. injectable) type of steroid (aromatizable or non-aromatizable), and level of resistance to hepatic metabolism. Oxandrolone has a strong effect on the hepatic management of cholesterol due to its structural resistance to liver breakdown, non-aromatizable nature, and route of administration.

Side Effects (Testosterone Suppression):

All anabolic/androgenic steroids when taken in doses sufficient to promote muscle gain are expected to suppress endogenous testosterone production. Oxandrolone is no exception. In the above-cited study on HIV+ males, twelve weeks of 20mg or 40mg per day caused an approximate 45% reduction in serum testosterone levels. The group taking 80mg noticed a 66% decrease in testosterone. Similar trends of decrease were noticed in LH production, with 20mg and 40mg doses causing a 25 - 30% reduction, and the 80mg group noticing a decline of more than 50%. Additionally, studies on boys with constitutionally delayed puberty have demonstrated significant suppression of endogenous LH and testosterone with as little as 2.5mg per day. Without the intervention of testosterone-stimulating substancestestosterone levels should return to normal within 1 - 4 months of drug secession. Note that prolonged hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism can develop secondary to steroid abuse, necessitating medical intervention.

We provide On Cycle and Post Cycle Therapy Kits in the category Cycle Therapy. If you are cycling Anavar alone we recommend you to use either a Nolvadex alone or Clomid alone Post Cycle Therapy Kit. However, if you are stacking Anavar with other anabolic/androgenic steroids such as Testosterone or Trenbolone, we recommend you run the hCG On Cycle Therapy Kit and run a Clomid + Nolvadex 6 Week Post Cycle Therapy. This will help you to maintain/restore your endogenous testosterone production maximizing gains and minimizing gains lost when you conclude your cycle.

Administration (General):

Studies have shown that taking an oral anabolic steroid with food may decrease its bioavailability. This is caused by the fat-soluble nature of steroid hormones, which can allow some of the drug to dissolve with undigested dietary fat, reducing its absorption from the gastrointestinal tract. For maximum utilization, this steroid should be taken on an empty stomach.

Administration (Men):

The usual dosage of this substance for physique- or performance-enhancing purposes is in the range of 15 - 25mg per day, which is to be taken for 6 to 8 weeks. These protocols are not far removed from those of normal theapeutic situations.

Oxandrolone is often combined with other steroids for a more dramatic result. For example, while bulking one might opt to add in 200 - 400mg of a testosterone ester (cypionate, enanthate, or propionate) per week. The result should be a considerable gain in new muscle mass, with a more comfortable level of water and fat retention than if taking a higher dose of testosterone alone. For dieting phases, one might alternatively combine oxandrolone with a non-aromatizing steroid such as 150mg per week of a trenbolone ester or 200 - 300mg of Primobolan (methenolone enanthate). Such stacks are highly favored for increasing definition and muscularity. An in-between (lean mass gain) might be to add in 200 - 400mg of a low estrogenic compound like Deca-Durabolin (nandrolone decanoate) or Equipose (boldenone undecylenate).

Administration (Women):

For physique- or performance-enhancing purposes, a daily dosage or 5 - 10mg should illicit considerable growth without the noticeable androgenic side effects of other drugs. This would be taken for no longer than 4 - 6 weeks. Eager females may wish to add another mild anabolic such as Winstrol, Primobolan, or Durabolin. When combined with such anabolics, the user should notice faster, more pronounced muscle-building effects, but it may also increase the likelihood of seeing androgenic side effects (or hepatotoxicity in the case of Winstrol).
