I think there's a little bit of confusion going on here,.Dbol and EQ basically don’t get metabolized by 5AR. Dbol has a very low affinity for 5AR just like EQ. Dbol creates methyl-1-test and EQ creates DHB but it’s basically non existent. If I recall it was proven EQ does not convert to DHB in humans.
Just because a drug doesn’t get metabolized by 5AR does not mean it’s weakly androgenic. Trenbolone, Masteron, and Trestolone don’t get metabolized by 5AR and are still very androgenic.
the reason I even bought up EQ having a very low affinity for 5AR / non existent one is because nandrolone is a 5AR blocker and reduces T-> DHT conversion. Since EQ doesn’t compete for 5AR with Testosterone it wouldn’t hinder T> DHT conversion. Blocking T>DHT conversion can lower libido.
EQ will interact with the 5ar enzyme, but it's similar to the way nolva agonizes certain sites and antagonizes others. EQ will attach to the 5ar enzyme but the enzyme will not convert it to dhb, there by reducing 5ar enzymes so in a sense the same thing happeneds as with deca, you some how reduce testosterones effects in the desired areas. I hope I convey the thought
