Methapex 50 is an oral steroid that includes 50mg of the Methandienone hormone.
Methapex is widely recognized among bodybuilders as the most popular name for this steroid. It is acknowledged as the second anabolic steroid developed, following testosterone. This steroid is the leading oral anabolic and is particularly favored by beginners due to its ability to quickly deliver gains in muscle mass and strength.
Thanks to its rapid effects, Methandienone serves as an excellent "jump start" for any cycle. Bodybuilders typically take the drug at the cycle's onset to see results immediately while waiting for the slower-acting injectable anabolic esters to kick in. Users often report notable enhancements in both strength and muscle mass. D-bol is also well-known for inducing a significant "pump" in the muscles during workouts, primarily because it enhances protein synthesis and nitrogen retention within muscle cells.
On a milligram-per-milligram basis, Methapex is regarded as one of the most potent anabolic oral steroids available to bodybuilders. It's important to understand that some users do experience estrogen-related side effects, such as bloating and occasionally "gyno," which refers to the development of female breast tissue in males, leading to painful and unsightly lumps. Due to this, bodybuilders often use an estrogen blocker like anastrozole or tamoxifen while using this steroid.
Like various other oral steroids, Methandienone is a C17-alpha alkylated compound, which can pose a risk of liver toxicity. Therefore, it is advisable for bodybuilders using this anabolic to include a liver protector in their daily supplementation and keep dosages within a reasonable range, limiting cycle duration to 10 weeks or shorter. Methapex can be a valuable addition to any cycle and is often paired with all injectable steroids.
As noted previously, this steroid is an excellent start for any cycle, but it is equally important to highlight that bodybuilders frequently use it as a "bridge" between cycles and as a recovery aid. In this context, Methapex can be administered at a low dose (10mg per day) during post-cycle therapy (PCT) or between cycles to maintain elevated androgen levels, keeping strength and mass while allowing natural testosterone levels to return to normal.
Methapex 50 is not highly favored among female bodybuilders due to its tendency to cause significant masculinizing side effects. Males generally take Methapex in doses ranging from 25-100mg daily for 4-10 weeks, and 10mg per day for bridging or PCT as needed.
