    how safe is anavar?

    i thought i had read just about all there was on anavar but upon digging deeper, i found out that it can cause liver cysts/tumors and or failure all together. im sure that this is only rare cases but still worrysome none the less. for the last week i have been taking 20mg morning and night but i think i may cut down to 10/10 and see a doctor just to make sure im not pre disposed to liver problems. other side effects were upset stomach, trouble sleeping, possibility of frequent and persistent erections(not so bad i guess) as well as the whole yellowing of the skin/eyes as is common with liver problems.

    for the most part, i am a very healthy individual. i eat well for the most part. i train regularly. i just found out last night my body fat is 3.2%. i know thats not exactly healthy, but i have always been that way. lately i have been loading up on muscle milk and whey. since training almost daily i have gained a few pounds of lean muscle and i am definately seeing results from the anavar in only a week and a half.

    any questions i should ask my doctor in particular? i know i should tell him about what i am taking i just dont know how to bring it up. are there any products i can take that will help ensure liver health?

    well...be sure to check your liver enzymes....

    they may be elevated anyway...but not to worrry as the liver is VERY resiliant(i mean dont take it for granted). It is the only organ that can regenerate tissue.

    With that in mind...you should still drink plenty of water...avoid other meds like tylenol or anything containing tylenol...avoid alcohol...or recreational drugs

    A supplement that i have used with success is liv 52....my enzymes were within normal limits post cycle that included anadrol

    Woah, if the are already elevated thats a problem. You definitely shouldnt take var if your liver vals are already high. They probably arent though. I agree with the second part definitely.

    Yes..it is indeed a problem but its not as big a deal as you think jigga....ALTHOUGH...im not telling him its ok by any means...It is a BIG warning sign and something should definately be done to combat this...

    When I say this...on a scale of what is REALLY dangerous...its not anything compared to your heart having an elevated troponin level....that is UNREPAIRABLE and is indicative of acute myocardial infarction

    What I am saying is....he needs to act now...and this problem IS CORRECTABLE

    Its not the end of the world

    I could be wrong but I don't think the OP is saying he has these side effects/issues, I think he's saying that he read that they are potential side effects of anavar and is concerned because they sound scary (and are I suppose if you do get them).

    3.2% bf for real? What's behind that?

    no yellowing here lol. im perfectly healthy as far as i know, i just wanna get a check up to make sure. for now i just bought a liver support supplement and im taking that. i dont think 40mg a day should cause problems, but if need be i will cut back to 20mg a day
