Is Anadrol toxicity overblown and a myth?

[UnholyAlliance]

Would anadrol be safe to use by a 60 year old?

Does anyone here take anadrol but also heavily into other sports? Like runnung, cycling, raquetball, dancing, hiking, etc???

I love the fullnss and strength from Abdrol but it make every other party of my life debilitating with pumps.

If athletic performance is your goal, I’d look into oral Turinabol. It was designed to improve athletic performance. Seems like Anadrol isn’t a good fit for your lifestyle.

I have taken Turinabol and didn't really notice much from it. I was told I did not take enough of it and to try it again, which I haven't done. So I would double the dose compared to anadrol. Or at least at an additional %30 dosage wise. This is just what I would do, you can do whatever you like. Just wanted you to know some of the potential pitfalls to avoid from experiences I have had. I did research this compound as I can't remember ever actually doing that. Pretty interesting I will post it below. I actually want to take this now again myself.

Turinabol (also known as Tbol, Oral Turinabol, or 4-Chlorodehydromethyltestosterone) is an oral anabolic-androgenic steroid (AAS). Its unique history sets it apart: it was the only AAS created for non-medicinal purposes. Let’s delve into the fascinating details:

1. Origin and Purpose:
   • Turinabol was formulated by German scientists to give an unfair advantage to East Germany’s athletic team during the Olympic Games between 1968 and 1989.
   • This was part of a state-sponsored doping program known as “State Plan Research Theme 14.25,” where the goal was to dominate sports completely.
   • Approximately 10,000 male and female athletes, including children as young as 10 years old, were unwittingly administered Turinabol. They acted as non-consenting lab rats, unaware of what they were receiving.
   • The secret compound behind the infamous ‘East German Doping Machine’ was none other than Turinabol.
2. Chemical Structure:
   • Turinabol is a derivative of Dianabol (Dbol).
   • While Dianabol led to water retention due to significant aromatization, Turinabol was designed to avoid fluid gain.
   • It possesses an identical structure to Dbol but with an additional 4-chloro alteration of clostebol.
   • Clostebol, a weak anabolic steroid used in medicine for dermatological purposes, underwent this modification to create Turinabol1.
3. Effects and Characteristics:
   • Turinabol produces slow, quality gains with fewer side effects compared to methandrostenolone (Dianabol).
   • Unlike Dianabol, it does not aromatize into estrogen, making it ideal for dry muscle gains.
   • In bodybuilding circles, Turinabol is often referred to as ‘baby Dbol’ due to its less potent anabolic and androgenic effects compared to its ‘father’ compound2.
4. Side Effects:
   • Virilization: Turinabol can cause masculinizing effects in women.
   • Liver Toxicity: Like other oral steroids, it may impact liver health.
   • HDL Cholesterol: It can suppress good cholesterol levels.
   • Testosterone Suppression: Turinabol may suppress natural testosterone production1.
5. Cycles and Usage:
   • Turinabol-Only Cycle (For Men): Typically used for lean gains and strength.
   • Turinabol-Only Cycle (For Women): Used cautiously due to virilization risk.
   • Turinabol and Testosterone Cycle: Combining it with testosterone for balanced effects.
6. Comparison with Anavar:
   • Turinabol is sometimes compared to Anavar (oxandrolone) due to their similar profiles.

There is a published medical study where patients were using 300 mg a day for like 6 months and they were perfectly healthy

This isn't that particular study, but below is a mildly interesting one nonetheless. Perhaps if you're on dialysis and wanting to try and retain some of your jackedness, Anadrol may be the drug of choice :

Effect of Oral Anabolic Steroid on Muscle Strength and Muscle Growth in Hemodialysis Patients

Sarcopenia is common in hemodialysis patients. This study examined whether the anabolic steroid oxymetholone improves muscle mass and handgrip strength in hemodialysis patients and possible mechanisms that might engender such changes.Forty-three eligible ...

www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

-100mg Anadrol per day for 6 months.
-Only two that were taking Anadrol dropped out prior to study completion (liver function in one, "undesired" non-edema weight in the other, pfffft).

"This study is the first to show that, in MHD patients, ingestion of oxymetholone results in an increase in FFM, muscle cross-sectional area for type I fibers, mRNA values for IGF-I as well as IGF-IIRs, MyHC, handgrip strength, predialysis BUN, and predialysis serum creatinine and a decrease in FM. Oxymetholone, in low doses, seems to have an important anabolic effect in MHD patients, although the potential risk for abnormal liver function is a source of concern."

Haven't seen that, highest I saw was I think 150mg.

Everyone talks about the up to 5mg/kg dose but my hunch is that this was never done in clinical practise, like a 220lbs (100kg) would theoretically get up to 10 tabs a day. I highly doubt that has been done, but hey, I'd love to hear/read about it. I think they used some other equation to determine dose for anemia or whatever.

Oxymetholone, in low doses, seems to have an important anabolic effect in MHD patients,

Hey, 100mg is low dose, I'm perfectly fine then lol.
