OXANDROLONE, Anavar
Oxandrolone Dose:
Male: 8 – 10 tablets daily
The original prescribing guidelines for Anavar called for a daily dosage of between 2.5 mg and 20 mg per day (5-10 mg being most common). This was usually recommended for a period of two to four weeks, but occasionally it was taken for as long as three months. The dosing guidelines recommended with the current U.S. production form of the drug (Oxandrin, Savient Pharmaceuticals) also call for between 2.5 and 20 mg of drug per day, taken in intermittent cycles of 2 to 4 weeks. The usual dosage for physique- or performance-enhancing purposes is in the range of 15-25 mg per day, taken for 6 to 8 weeks. These protocols are not far removed from those of normal therapeutic situations. Oxandrolone is often combined with other steroids for a more dramatic result. For example, while bulking one might opt to add in 200-400 mg 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 alternately combine oxandrolone with a nonaromatizing steroid such as 150 mg per week of a trenbolone ester or 200-300 mg 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 200-400 mg of a low estrogenic compound like Deca-Durabolin® (nandrolone decanoate) or Equipoise® (boldenone undecylenate).
Female: 5 tablets daily
The original prescribing guidelines for Anavar did not offer separate dosing recommendations for women, although it was indicated that women who were pregnant, or may become pregnant, should not use the drug. The current guidelines for Oxandrin also do not make special dosing recommendations for women. Women who fear the masculinizing effects of many steroids would be quite comfortable using this drug, as these properties are very rarely seen with low doses. For physique- or performanceenhancing purposes, a daily dosage of 5-10 mg 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).
Oxandrolone Cycle:
Oxandrolone, commonly known as Anavar, is an anabolic steroid that is often used for performance enhancement, particularly in bodybuilding and athletics. An Oxandrolone cycle refers to a period during which an individual uses Oxandrolone as part of their steroid regimen.
The specifics of an Oxandrolone cycle can vary depending on factors such as the individual's goals, experience with steroids, and tolerance to the drug. However, typical cycles might involve taking Oxandrolone orally in tablet form for a set duration, usually ranging from 6 to 12 weeks.
A common Oxandrolone cycle might look something like this:
- Start with a Low Dose: Beginners typically start with a lower dosage to assess tolerance and minimize potential side effects. A common starting dosage might be around 20-30mg per day.
- Gradual Increase: Depending on how the individual responds, the dosage may be gradually increased over the course of the cycle. However, it's essential to be cautious and not exceed recommended dosages to avoid adverse effects.
- Mid-Cycle Evaluation: Around halfway through the cycle, individuals may evaluate their progress and adjust dosage or other aspects of their regimen as needed.
- Post-Cycle Therapy (PCT): After completing the Oxandrolone cycle, individuals often undergo a post-cycle therapy regimen to help restore natural hormone production, minimize potential side effects, and maintain gains achieved during the cycle. PCT may involve the use of medications such as SERMs (Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators) like Clomid or Nolvadex.
It's crucial to note that the use of anabolic steroids like Oxandrolone should be approached with caution and under the supervision of a qualified medical professional. Misuse or abuse of steroids can lead to various health risks and side effects, including liver damage, cardiovascular issues, hormonal imbalances, and more. Additionally, the use of steroids for performance enhancement is often prohibited in sports and can result in serious consequences for athletes if detected
