No, it's just acts like it. It never aromatizes. | ||

winny is about the only thing you can take as a precautionary measure to ward off progesterone induced gyno...clomid,nolva,arimidex..will not help | ||

No, Anadrol will not cause gyno induced via progesterone... It will cause progesterone induced edema though, | ||

It is my understanding that you can't get gyno from anadrol... I have never heard of one case, and i recently read an article which backs up anadrol not causing gyno. It is a common belief that it does b/c people believe everything they hear and think that just because it aromatises into progesterone that it will cause gyno just like other progesterone aromatase | ||

OK, let's get this straight. Men can get swollen breast from too much progesterone. Progesterone's main purpose in life is, when a women gets pregnant her body begins producing more progesterone 1 for prenatal reasons and 2 to develop the milk ducts in the titties! There was a case documented in which a male's breast was oozing milk, I'll try to find that article and post it if I can. ------------------ | ||

Its no secret that anadrol can cause gyno, if you don't know anyone that has gyno from it you probably do not know a whole lot of people that have taken it. ------------------ For a good time click here: Search and Profiles (300Kleens Board) | ||

hmm, most of the profiles I've read list Anadrol as the #1 gyno roid. Here's a cut and paste from a typical profile: 'This is an excellent steroid for both strength and weight gains but it does not come without a price (both in actual cost and side effects). Most users of this steroid report getting gyno about 50% of the time' | ||

No research that I have found shows progesterone activating activity of Oxymetholone. With that being said, there is a good possibility that oxy is a progestagen, an agent that acts like progesterone (note: no androgen converts into progesterone). The evidence supporting this is 1.) gyno with no known estrogenic metabolite, 2.) claims of stanazolol preventing gyno with oxy, and 3.) evidence of carbohydrate intolerance with oxy use (very similar to progestagens). | ||

Yes anadrol and gyno are possible. I've used the injectible and had no problems, but I was careful and used, Nalvo and clomid EOD throughout. I did not use winny with this cycle but I did use EQ as well, but that didn't affect the result, just help solidify some of the bloat. I have no real problems with Abombs, but after reading this board for a while it seems many of the bro's either have had problems or are perpetuating a myth about its negative sides. . .in the end I agree with a thread I read a month or so back. . .for the $$$ dbol is better and easier on your body. . .That I believe is true. ------------------ | ||

Rugby, you completely misread cockdezl's response- anadrol can and does cause gyno- induced through progesterone receptor stimulation. ------------------ | ||

Where are you guys getting your information from??? Not everything that is on steroid profiles are correct... I got this exerpt from the gade board: Anadrol was the U.S. brand name for 50mg Oxymetholone tablets, which were available in the U.S. until 1993. Syntex is the world producer of this drug, and markets it under a few different brand names in other areas. Oxymetholone is a 17alpha alkylated oral steroid. Second to none, this product is generally considered the most powerful steroid available. Anadrol will produce extremely dramatic weight and strength gains in its user. Some of this weight and strength gain will be due to the drugs heavy water retention. Users of Anadrol report severe crashes when stopping usage, mostly due to the loss of water and inhibited endogenous hormone production brought about during the cycle. Aside from the water, Anadrol will pack on the mass like no other steroid. A short cycle of Anadrol could account for a gain of over 20lbs in many users, sometimes more. As this drugs anabolic properties are so extreme, so are it's androgenic side effects. Due to the strength of these side effects, Anadrol should never be used by women. For starters, oxymetholone will easily convert to estrogen and DHT. As stated earlier water retention will be present, along with an increase in blood pressure. Kidney functions may also need to be looked after during longer use. Hair loss has also been reported among users with a predisposition for male-pattern baldness. The most dangerous attribute of Anadrol is that is it 17alpha alkylated. As you probably know 17aa orals are toxic to the liver. I got my information from an internal medicine specialist... i had always though it did cause gyno, but i really do trust this Dr.s statement |
