Testosterone Cypionate

Testosterone cypionate is an injectable ester of the primary male androgen testosterone. Testosterone is main anabolic hormone in men. Testosterone cypionate is highly favored by bodybuilders for its ability to promote strong increases in muscle mass and strength. Testosterone cypionate is prescribed for a variety of reasons including low androgen levels, low gonatropin levels, and for conditions where muscle sparing is necessary from tissue wasting diseases or in recovery from serious surgeries. Bodybuilders and athletes consider it the base steroid to most all cycles. Testosterone is both anabolic and androgenic in nature. Bodybuilders of this steroid will notice a dramatic gain in muscle size and strength, as well as an overall sense of well being and increases libido and sex drive. Testosterone cypionate is a very effective anabolic drug, and is often used alone with great benefit. Some find a need to stack it with other anabolic/androgenic steroids for a stronger effect, in which case an additional 200 - 400mg per week of boldenone undecylenate, methenolone enanthate, or nandrolone decanoate should provide substantial results with no significant hepatotoxicity. Testosterone is ultimately very versatile, and can be combined with many other anabolic/androgenic steroids to tailor the desired effect. When using testosterone, bodybuilders often choose in incorporate an anti-estrogen such as Anastrozole, Proviron, Tamoxifen to help keep estrogen related side effects to a minimum. Extremely sensitive users, or users using very high doses (800-1200mgs) might find that stronger anti-estrogens such as Letrozole or Exemestane are more suitable. Androgenic side effects such as oily skin are possible while taking Testosterone. Those looking to bulk up, often add this drug with other steroids such as deca durabolin and/or equipoise, along with an oral compound such as dianobol or anadrol. Bodybuilders who want to use testosterone during cutting phase, might wish to stack it with compounds such as trenbolone or winstrol. Using testosterone cypionate will quickly shut down the body’s natural production of the hormone, thus making a proper PCT plan essential for restoring the body’s natural function and maintaining gains as best as possible after use of the steroid has been discontinued. At cycle’s end, bodybuilders often choose to use a combination of Clomid, Tamoxifen, and HCG for a period of 3-4wks in order to restore pituitary gland and testes operation quickly and effectively. Woman bodybuilders use testosterone to build mass, although of course the dosage is significantly less than what males would use due to the possibility of masculizing side effects. The male user’s dosage of this steroid would typically be in 400-1200mg per week range and cycle duration would be from 8-20 weeks, depending of course on the goals of the athlete. Women normally see desirable results from doses of 50 - 100mgs per week.
