Progesterone and joints - wild theories

[Mr.BB]

Nandrolone has no more healing abilities than other steroids, the effect of nandrolone in joints is of a potent antiflamatory.

Maybe. It's famed to help joints, and there's been a lot of strange info going around about other AAS, remember a time when people would say T would depress collagen synthesis.
Personally I think all AAS heal tendons, and all AAS seems to increase collagen synthesis.
Also had some personal experience with nandrolone fixing joint issues,
but ofcourse it could just have been a pain relieving action which lasted long enough for the joint to heal, so that when I stopped it the pain was gone.

Even so, the role of E and Progesterone on joint healing isn't much known.

But about trenbolone and nandrolone being partial agonist or antagonists at the progesterone receptor, well, at the very least their not antagonists I think.
I base this on the fact that they're very supressive, and this is believed to be caused by progestin activity.

But, one could for simplicity say all AAS heal tendons, as they increase collagen production and it seems likely they should be anabolic in both muscles and ligaments, ligaments being less stimulated due to no direct blood supply.

But what progesterone or progestins does to joints would be intresting to know.
And then in a realistic setting, with enough T and some E present as well.

Now you are talking about tendons?! Joints and tendons are different things.

But the answer is simple, it does nothing to joints and tendons, except the anti-inflammatory effect that progesterone also has.

Joints and tendons in women are the same, plenty of information about progesterone in women.

@Bizzaro;
While I don't think any of the AAS with binding to the PR are antagonist,
they could ofcourse have different actions than progesterone.
Your clomid/nolva comparison isn't possible to rule out.
But they do seem like agonists at the HPTA.
