All joking aside, I can not tell you much about how androil will work as I would NEVER recommed it for a woman. If you both are serious about having her compete, then she has very little options about doing injections. Long term use of orals are NOT the way to go.

I'm almost a bit tee'ed at this sitch. She must either step up to the plate, suck it up, and take a fricking injection, or go completly natural.

And you should do some digging and get a source with some gear. Most of the stuff is very basic and should not be that big of a problem.

It's all part of doing what it takes to compete. So you both have some thinking to do....

But looky here. Someone tried it as a 'one-off' experiment on some chicks. I don't know why they chose 40mgs, but given the apparently low availability (it's not 17-AA) that might have something to do with it. I think this low availability is a prob for men, too, because they give it to men at 100-200mgs per day for years on end. I wholeheartedly agree with WarLobo on getting serious about 'supplements'. Please don't let your fiancee do a half-hearted and potentially dangerous cycle just because that's all you've got in the cupbaord.

The plasma levels of testosterone (T) were measured after oral administration
of 25 mg T and 40 mg testosterone-undecanoate (TU) in a group of young
women by a specific radioimmunoassay. Plasma levels were compared to those
after intravenous administration of 1.5 micrograms testosterone/kg to another
group of young women for determination of absolute bioavailability. Due to the
high metabolic clearance rate of 24.5 ml/min/kg absolute systemic availability
of free testosterone was calculated to 3.56 +/- 2.45%. Oral administration of
testosterone undecanoate leads only to an absolute testosterone bioavailability
of 6.83 +/- 3.32%
