I've been meaning to reply on this thread for awhile and forgot about it.
I have stated in the past both on here and on AF women's board that I have used A-50 in the past with a couple of my female friends that wanted to get into shape for stuff like the beach and summer. Like Warlobo mentioned, this was highly recommended by Duchaine himself, and it is where I got my idea to do it as well. Women seem to respond very good to A-50 when they are dieting. Plus it is very cost effective when you have to compare it to others like winny and primo and anavar. Granted, most women can get great results off of these drugs, but they really do not get much more than a 1/2 to 1 tab of A-50 does. Most think that the A-50 will cause excess bloating, which it will do to a slight degree, but this is usually decreased when taken on a hypocaloric diet. Any kind of water retention can be flushed away using diuretics if necessary. One of the main points of dieting is mainatining muscle mass from being catabolized to a high degree. A-50 is great for leaning up!!! I feel that most of the side effects associated with Anadrol have really been blown out of proportion. About the only thing I really seen that was noticeable was the moustache hair growth. This was drastically slowed down once they started using Saw Palmetto though. Although this was present, I have seen some females grow hair from drugs like winny, deca, and primo. My ex was half mexican and half white, and god she was hot as fuck
, anyway, a lot of mexican women have a problem with being a little more hairy than maybe caucasian and other "lighter skin women"...hopefully everyone knows what I mean here (not trying to raise any racial problems). When she added the Saw Palmetto, her moustache and virilization problems cut down as well. She had been taking primobolan 5mg tabs from Mexico at the time.
I would also add some ALA for Liver protection precautions to be on the safe side. I think this too has been blown out of proportion, but hey, lets be on the safe side and not screw up and give these drugs bad names.
The A-50 that my "girl" friends used were the Pink Syntex A-50's in Mexico. Not the fake bottled ones, but the ones in the pop-out blister packs...this was about 4 years ago. With the addition of all the new A-50's brands added to our arsenal list, they are fairly easy to obtain nowadays.
Here's a response that cockdezl gave me when i bombarded his ass with questions awhile back regarding A-50 and progesterone effects when dieting:
"We know that progesterone (and etiocholanolone) is thermogenic, but the mechanism is not understood. Duchaine stated that it was due to activating some of the uncoupling proteins that had been recently discovered, but I have yet to find any online research showing this. I did find an interesting aticle that showed the exact opposite, showing that testosterone and progesterone we REcouplers of oxidative phosphorylation, in essence they improved mitochondrial efficiency when challenged by uncoupling agents (except for DNP, none were able to counter its effects). What may be happening is that progestagenic compounds increase fatty acid release, which in turn decreases insulin sensitivity. This lower insulin sensitivity reduces the gluconeogenic activity and combined with the high lipolytic activity, preserves LBM".
This raises yet another concern to me in that maybe even Fina is being blown out of proportion for female use. At lowered dosage levels, I really don't see it to be any different than probably most of the other anabolics. Of course, most women need to decide whether or not they are using these drugs to "compete" or just to look good, which in the later case, most of the "safer" drugs may be a better choice...Maybe.
