    dbol profile roughdraft!

    Please critique my rough draft. Thanks!


    I. Drug History
    Substance name -Methandrostenolone or Methandienone
    Street names-Dianabol , Dbol , Pink Thai’s.
    Date Created- Originally created in 1956 by John Ziegler and released by Ciba. Dianabol was discontinued in the early 90’s because the FDA believed the use was far more prevalent in the bodybuilding community than for therapeutic uses1.
    Medical Use- in medical use, dianabol is used especially in the adjunctive treatment of senile and postmenopausal osteoporosis and in selected cases of pituitary dwarfism, administered orally in ranges of 1-5milligrams daily2.
    Scientific and medical facts-17a-methyl-17b-hydroxy-1,4-androstadien-3-one; 17beta-Hydroxy-17-methylandrosta-1,4-dien-3-one; 1-Dehydro-17a-methyltestosterone ; Metandienone; Methandienone; Methandrostenolone3. Dianabol has a molecular weight of 300.44 and the formula is C20H28O2(3) .Dianabol has been altered at the 17th Carbon position in order to survive the first pass through the liver, and make it into the blood stream, hence 17aa(6). The effect of Dianabol promotes the protein synthesis so it supports the buildup of protein. This effect manifests itself in a positive nitrogen balance.

    (I have pictures in here, but won't load)


    II. Performance and uses-
    When Anabolic Review members were polled on their results from dianabol, 69% of them were happy with the results and only 10% were dissatisfied. Dianabol has been and will continue to be one the most popular oral steroids for gaining mass and strength.
    Dianabol has both high androgenic and high anabolic properties. One can expect significant gains in mass and strength during a cycle. However, due to the loss of water and HPTA suppression, some of these gains disappear post cycle. Novice dianabol doses are in the range of 20-25mg per day, as one would not need more to experience exceptional gains. Experienced users do well to use a dose range around 50 mg per day. Going beyond 50 mg per day is not recommended because the positive effects are not greatly increased. Massive doses are not needed because a dose as low as 10 mg is sufficient to increase by 5 times the androgen anabolic activity, followed by a 50 to 70% decrease in cortisol activity4. Dianabol is to be respected as a highly effective mass steroid , which provides excellent weight and strength gains. Dianabol is also a quick mass gainer, as one could see results in as little as 2 weeks. A common gain of 2-4 LB per week is to be expected for most users with a high level of water retention4.
    Using dianabol before a competition is not a favored choice, as the water retention stands out. Dianabol causes a strong increase in protein synthesis as well as post workout nitrogen repletion1. Dianabol will aromatize via aromatase to estradiol so an estrogen blocker such as nolvadex or the highly regarded arimidex is strongly recommended along with it5. Dianabol will not convert to DHT, but rather dihydromethandrostenolone, so one would want to use finasteride to stop conversion if they are worried about losing hair. Women should beware because it has been known to deepen/hoarsen the voice. It is a poor choice among female athletes. But if a female must use it, doses no more than 10 mg per day for no longer than 4 weeks should be the protocol. This will minimize the masculization side effects in women. It has been noted by users that they tend to have a sense of well being while taking dianabol. One would do well to use dianabol as a jump-start in a cycle, using it for the first four weeks (and no more than four weeks, which we will discuss the reason later) of a 10-week cycle stacked with a testosterone ester. An example of a dianabol cycle would be:
    Week Test. Enanthate Dianabol
    1 500mg 30mg/day
    2 500mg 30mg/day
    3 500mg 30mg/day
    4 500mg 30mg/day
    5 500mg
    6 500mg
    7 500mg
    8 500mg
    9 500mg
    10 500mg

    (one could adjust dosing according to experience, 20 mg/day being the low and 50 mg/day being high. This is just an example, as dianabol stacks well with a lot of things, except other liver toxic steroids such as anadrol .)
    When using dianabol as a kickstarter" in a cycle, one would want to use it the first four weeks along with testosterone and an injectable that is long acting, such as deca -durabolin or equipose (6).
    90% of Anabolic Review members prefer jumpstarting their cycle with dbol, using it the first four weeks. Some also prefer to take dianabol the last 4 weeks of a cycle. Bad advice is all too common today, as some would say that a dbol only cycle is beneficial. However, experience from members at AR has shown that it is unwise to take a Dianabol only cycle, as it will be extremely difficult to maintain gains post cycle.
    As far as the injectable dianabol is concerned, it will not produce anywhere near the dramatic results as oral dianabol. However if taken orally, it will produce similar results as with oral dianabol4. As far as it's effectiveness vs. anadrol, many would agree dianabol is stronger mg for mg. However doses for anadrol tend to be higher so the gains might be higher when taking anadrol(6).


    Side Effects and Precautions
    The detection time of dianabol is 5 weeks. The half-life is 4.5-6 hours, so clomid therapy would start after the 4.5-6 hour mark. To take advantage of the half-life of dianabol as well as maximize gains, one should divide the doses throughout the day. To minimize HPTA shut down, it would be wise to stop use 6 hours before bed, as this is when natural testosterone production is at its highest. Most users will notice a good amount of water retention, which should subside shortly after use. Anti estrogen drugs such as nolvadex and arimidex are very good aids in minimizing water retention. It should be noted that dianabol is 17 alpha-alkylated which adds strain to the liver. To minimize raising liver enzymes to unhealthy level, one would use dbol for 6 weeks or less, or more preferably 4 weeks. Since dianabol is 17 alpha-alkylated it should not be stacked with another liver toxic steroid such as anadrol. Liver values are usually elevated while using dianabol, but these values usually return to normal a short time after cessation of it. Other known side effects such as high blood pressure, acne, gyno, heavy water retention, and elevated blood pressure are all commonly reported. It has been stated that dianabol causes heavy suppression of natural testosterone after only 10 days of use, but is dose dependant4.

    Availability
    Dianabol has by far been one of the most popular oral steroids ever, and for this reason it is also one of the most widely faked also. Prices I have seen have been as low as $.07 per tab to $2.00 per tab.

    If anyone has any other stacking suggestions please let me know.

    I like this article its alittle more profile-like and less encyclopedic than some of the others. Quick to read and flowing smoothly this profile will provide the kind of information that people researching steroids for the first time will really want to know without being too long and scientific. The poll results provide first hand knowledge of how real people feel about and react to the drug as opposed to a scientist citing facts obtained in controlled experiments on animals. This article fits the description of a drug profile.

    I highly disagree with that statement.

    Dianabol is clearly affected by the 5alpha reductase. It doesnt produce DHT, but I suppose what you would call DHM..dihydroMethandrostenolone aka 17 alpha-methyl-5 alpha-androstane-3 alpha,17 beta-diol. the equivalent of a DHT for dbol

    Remeber, many have trouble with losing hair on dbol



    Studies on anabolic steroids . V. Sequential reduction of methandienone and structurally related steroid A-ring substituents in humans: gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric study of the corresponding urinary metabolites.

    THanks billy...so finasteride will help? Because I've read that it won't help in stopping hairloss.

    QV wasn't listed under the veterinary part on the post. Just my 2 cents.

    yes, it will prevent conversion of DHM which presumably is what causes it

    just like DHN and DHB (nanadrolones and boldonones respectively) can cause problems for some people, very rare though
