Side-Effects of Testoviron Depot
By now you understand how powerfully effective Testoviron Depot can be, and from the profile page you should already have an understanding of the side-effects, but we want to go deeper. The side-effects of Testoviron Depot can be very real; however, they can also be avoided. In-order to avoid the side-effects of Testoviron Depot, the first order of business is stating you must be a healthy adult male if you’re going to supplement. From there, you must ensure you are actually healthy, and this means you do not have high blood pressure or cholesterol and you do not suffer from any prostate issues. If you meet this requirement, supplementation can be considered, but the above must be met. This is not an anabolic steroid for women; the side-effects of Testoviron Depot in a virilization sense can be much too harsh, and there are simply better steroids for females to use. Granted, if a woman suffers from low testosterone, Testoviron Depot in an extremely low dose can provide a remedy; however, this would be the only time use could be considered. Then we have children, and there is absolutely no reason children should ever touch this steroid. Anabolic steroids of any kind should not be used by children unless it is in the service of treating a sever condition through therapeutic use. Failure to abide by this rule can lead to severe damage of a developing androgen system, and in many cases, it will be irreversible.
With the above in mind, we want to look at the side-effects of Testoviron Depot, but before we do there are a few key points we need to address. When it comes to these side-effects, the majority fall into the possible range, and that means they are not guaranteed. Further, as they are possible, they are also in most all cases avoidable with proper and responsible use for all healthy adult men. Of course, as we will see, there are two interconnected side-effects of Testoviron Depot that are guaranteed in all men who supplement; however, with responsible use they both become a non-issue of concern. We understand this is a hard concept for many to understand; after all, when it comes to anabolic androgenic steroids we’ve often been led to believe these are virtually poisonous substances; this simply isn’t true. For example, Testoviron Depot is simply Testosterone-Enanthate, and testosterone is a hormone all human beings produce; not only do you produce it, you do so essentially. This is not a foreign substance to the body, it is not something your body is unfamiliar with, and it cannot cause a reaction that is unrelated to testosterone; that’s impossible and should be easy to understand.
The Primary Side-Effects of Testoviron Depot:
Like all Testosterone-Enanthate compounds, and all testosterone compounds for that matter, Testoviron Depot carries a strong aromatizing nature. If a steroid carries an aromatizing nature, this means it can cause a conversion of testosterone into estrogen, and as a result lead to estrogenic related side-effects. These side-effects will be the most concerning for most men, but they are not the only primary side-effects of Testoviron Depot; all in all, there are five of worthy note excluding the guaranteed effects we will discuss later on. At any rate, we have listed the possible primary side-effects of Testoviron Depot below along with everything you need to know in-order to combat them.
· Gynecomastia – commonly referred to as male-breast enlargement, this condition is due to an excess estrogen buildup that can occur due to this steroid’s
aromatizing nature. In-order to combat this issue, you have two options; Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERM’s) or Aromatase Inhibitors (AI’s).
SERM’s like Tamoxifen Citrate (Nolvadex) function by binding to the receptors thereby preventing the excess estrogen from binding; contrary to the belief
of many they do not reduce estrogen levels. For some men, this can be enough protection; however, it’s often not enough. AI’s are the number one defense
against gynecomastia as they inhibit the aromatase process and further reduce the body’s estrogen levels. Further, we will see AI’s will help with other
aromatizing effects where SERM’s will not. AI’s truly are your best bet, and your top choices will always be Anastrozole (Arimidex) or Letrozole (Femara).
· Excess Water Retention: once again, this is due to the excess estrogen buildup caused by this steroid’s strong aromatizing nature, and as was with
gynecomastia there is absolutely no reason you have to suffer. Once again, an AI will protect you; after all, if there is no excess estrogen there can be
no excess water retention through this cause. If you use an AI and you still hold water, it is possible your AI dose is too low; however, in most cases,
this isn’t the problem. If you overeat, you will hold water, and this will hold true with excess carbohydrates more so than anything else with or without
anabolic steroid use. Control your diet and use an AI and excess water retention will not be a problem.
· High Blood Pressure: excess estrogen and water retention can play a massive role, and as a result AI’s will once again offer protection. Of course, your
best protection will be ensuring your doses are under control and of a responsible nature. Further, you must ensure you live a healthy lifestyle that
promotes the continuation of a healthy blood pressure; if you cannot do this then you do not need to supplement with Testoviron Depot or any anabolic
steroid.
· Cholesterol Issues: testosterone compounds can lower HDL cholesterol levels and increase LDL levels. For this reason, it is important you not only use
responsible doses, but your lifestyle habits as mentioned in the blood pressure section become even more important. Many are advised to include plenty of
omega fatty acids in their diet. Omega fatty acids will increase HDL cholesterol levels, and as HDL regulates LDL cholesterol this will improve your total
reading.
· Prostate Enlargement: while this is possible, it is extremely unlikely for the healthy adult man. It takes large buildups of DHT, massive to cause prostate enlargement, and while this is not a DHT steroid there can be a testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) conversion. However, it would take massive doses for extended periods of time, and if you supplement responsibly but still have an issue, there’s more than likely an underlying factor such as an already enlarged prostate.
Guaranteed Side-Effects of Testoviron Depot:
As stated early on, Testoviron Depot carries two interconnected side-effects that are not only dependent on one another, they are guaranteed in all men who supplement; testosterone suppression and testicular atrophy. Most all anabolic steroids suppress natural testosterone production to a degree; suppression varies from steroid to steroid, but with exogenous testosterone it is extensive. For this reason, when we supplement with most anabolic steroids, we need to include a testosterone compound like Testoviron Depot in-order to ensure we do not slip into a low testosterone condition. Of course, this isn’t a concern here; after all, you’ll be receiving all the testosterone you need through Testoviron Depot use. No, this will not prevent testicular atrophy; as you won’t be producing natural testosterone and testosterone is produced in the testicles they will atrophy; even so, there is hope.
Once you discontinue the use of all anabolic steroids, your natural testosterone production will begin again, and your testicles will return to their normal size; however, this is dependent on two important factors. First and foremost, post cycle testosterone recovery is only possible if you did not suffer from a low testosterone condition prior to steroidal supplementation. Secondly, this recovery will not occur if you severely damaged your HPTA during steroidal supplementation with poor or improper practices. Assuming you did not damage your HPTA, and there’s no reason you can’t avoid such damage and you did not suffer from a prior low level condition there is no reason for the guaranteed side-effects of Testoviron Depot to be an issue for you. Of course, once you discontinue use your levels will still be suppressed, and if you’re going to be off-cycle for an extended period of time this makes a Post Cycle Therapy (PCT) plan extremely important. A PCT plan will stimulate your natural production; it won’t promote a full recovery, but it will cut down the total recovery time and ensure you have an adequate amount of testosterone for proper bodily function while your levels continue to naturally rise.
