Proviron:
Substance: Mesterolone
Proviron is a synthetic androgenic steroid and oral antiestrogen used by bodybuilders. A lot of bodybuilders take this substance for two main reasons. They use it to restore sexual disfunctions caused by steroid cycling. It will help get rid of the lack of sexual desire that most bodybuilders experience during a long steroid cycle. It also will help with the decreased sperm count and quality that steroids exhibit on the body. It does not however increase testosterone production in the body. It is also used as an anti-estrogen as well. Proviron provides a dual blocking scheme in that it prevents the aromitization of steroids as well as competes with estrogen to block the receptors as well. The bad thing about Proviron is that it does not help in maintaining strength and muscle gains after a steroid cycle whereas HCG, Clomid, and Teslac do. This reason alone keeps some people from using this drug. It does however block gyno and the increased water retention that steroids give the user. It does allow increased muscle hardness since the estrogen levels will be low which is of great benefit for a precontest bodybuilder.
