Methapex 20 is an oral steroid that contains 20mg of the hormone Methandienone.
Methapex is the most recognized name for this steroid among bodybuilders. It is known to be the second anabolic steroid ever developed, following testosterone. This steroid is the most widely used oral option available. It is favored by beginners in anabolic substances due to its rapid ability to enhance mass and strength.
Thanks to its quick effects on the body, Methandienone serves as an excellent "jump start" for any cycle. Bodybuilders often take this drug at the start of a cycle to achieve immediate results while waiting for the slower-acting esters of injectable anabolics to become effective. Many users of this steroid report noticeable increases in strength and muscle mass. D-bol is also renowned for causing an intense "pump" in the muscles during workouts, primarily due to its significant enhancement of protein synthesis and nitrogen retention within muscle cells.
Methapex is regarded as one of the most potent anabolic oral steroids available to bodybuilders. It's crucial to mention that some users may experience estrogen-related issues while using Methapex, including bloating and occasionally "gyno" (the growth of female tissue under the nipples in males, leading to unsightly and often painful lumps). As a result, bodybuilders might choose to utilize an estrogen inhibitor like anastrozole or tamoxifen while using this steroid.
Similar to many other oral steroids, Methandienone is a C17-alpha alkylated compound, which can be potentially harmful to the liver. It is advisable for bodybuilders using this anabolic to include a liver protectant in their daily supplement regimen. They should also maintain their dosages of this powerful compound within a reasonable range and limit cycle duration to 10 weeks or less. Methapex can significantly enhance any cycle and is typically stacked with various injectable steroids.
As previously mentioned, this steroid is an excellent way to initiate any cycle, but it is also noteworthy that bodybuilders frequently utilize it as a "bridge" between cycles and for recovery. In these cases, Methapex can be taken at a low dosage (10mg per day) during post-cycle therapy (PCT) or between cycles to sustain high androgen levels, keeping strength and mass while allowing the body to restore its natural testosterone levels.
Methapex 20 is not widely favored among female bodybuilders due to its tendency to cause severe masculinizing side effects. Males typically take Methapex at dosages ranging from 25-100mg per day for 4-10 weeks, and 10mg per day for bridging or PCT as needed.
