Testosterone Propionate inj.
The most common dosage schedule
for Testosterone Propionate (men) is to
inject 50 to
100 mg, every 2nd or 3rd day.
As with the more popular esters, the
total weekly dosage would be in the
range of 200-400 mg. As with all
testosterone compounds, this drug is
most appropriately suited for bulking
phases of training. Here it is most
often combined with other strong agents
such as
Dianabol, Anadrol 50 or Deca-Duralin,
combinations that prove to be quite
formidable. Propionate however is
sometimes also used with non aromatizing
anabolics/androgens during cutting or
dieting phases of training, a time when
its' fast action and androgenic nature
are also appreciated. Popular stacks
include a moderate dosage of propionate
with an oral anabolic like Winstrol
(15-35 mg daily), Primobolan (50-150 mg
daily) or Oxandrolone (15-30 mg daily).
Provided the body fat percentage is
sufficiently low, the look of dense
muscularity can be notably improved
(barring any excess estrogen buildup
from the testosterone). We can further
add a non-aromatizing androgen like
Trenbolone, which should have an even
more extreme effect on subcutaneous body
fat and muscle hardness. Of course with
the added androgen content any related
side effects will become much more
pronounced.
INDICATIONS
:
Testosterone propionate is a commonly
manufactured, oil-based injectable
testosterone compound. The added
propionate ester will slow the rate in
which the steroid is released from the
injection site, but only for a few days.
Testosterone propionate is therefore
comparatively much faster acting than
other testosterone esters such as
cypionate or enanthate, and requires a
much more frequent dosing schedule.
While cypionate and enanthate are
injected on a weekly basis, propionate
is generally administered (at least)
every third day. Figure one illustrates
a typical release pattern after
injection. As you can see, levels peak
and begin declining quickly with this
ester of testosterone.
To make Testosterone Propionate even more uncomfortable to use, the
propionate ester can be very irritating
to the site of injection. In fact, many
sensitive individuals choose to stay
away from Testosterone Propionate
completely, their body reacting with a
pronounced soreness and low-grade fever
that may last for a few days. Even the
mild soreness that is experienced by
most users can be quite uncomfortable,
especially when taking multiple
injections each week. The standard
esters like enanthate and cypionate,
which are clearly easier to use, are
therefore much more popular among
athletes
Those who are not bothered by frequent
injections will find that propionate is
quite an effective steroid. It is of
course of powerful mass drug, capable of
producing rapid gains in size and
strength. At the same time the buildup
of estrogen and DHT (dihydrotestosterone)
will be pronounced, so typical
testosterone side effects are to be
expected. Some do consider Testosterone
Propionate to be the mildest
testosterone ester, and the preferred
form of this hormone for dieting/cutting
phases of training. Some will go so far
as to say that propionate will harden
the physique. while giving the user less
water and fat retention than one
typically expects to see with a
testosterone. Realistically however,
this is nonsense. The ester is removed
before testosterone is active in the
body, and likewise the ester cannot
alter the activity of the parent steroid
in any way, only slow its release. We
can say that propionate might be the
favored testosterone among female
bodybuilders (for those who insist on
testosterone use!) as blood levels are
easier to control with it compared to
other esters. Should virilization
symptoms develop, one would not wish to
wait the weeks needed for testosterone
concentrations to fall after a shot of
enanthate for example.
During
a typical Testosterone Propionate cycle
one will see action that is consistent
with a testosterone. Users sensitive to
gynecomastia may therefore need to
addition an antiestrogen. Those
particularly troubled may find that a
combination of Nolvadex and Proviron
works especially well at
preventing/halting this occurrence. Also
unavoidable with a testosterone are
androgenic side effects like oily skin,
acne, increased aggression and
body/facial hair growth. Those who may
have a predisposition for male pattern
baldness may also find that propionate
will aggravate this condition. To help
combat this we also have the option of
adding Proscar, which will reduce
the buildup of DHT in many androgen
target tissues. This will help minimize
related side effects (particularly hair
loss) although it offers us no
guarantees. And as with all testosterone
products, propionate will also suppress
endogenous testosterone production. The
use of a testosterone stimulating drug
like HCG and/or Clomid is therefore
almost a requirement in order to avoid
enduring a post-cycle crash.
The most common dosage schedule for
Testosterone Propionate (men) is to
inject 50 to 100 mg, every 2nd or 3rd
day. As with the more popular esters,
the total weekly dosage would be in the
range of 200-400 mg. As with all
testosterone compounds, this drug is

further add a non-aromatizing androgen
like Trenbolone, which should have an
even more extreme effect on subcutaneous
body fat and muscle hardness. Of course
with the added androgen content any
related side effects will become much
more pronounced.
Women who absolutely must use an
injectable testosterone should only use
this preparation. The Testosterone
Propionate dosage schedule should also
be more spread out for a female
bodybuilder, with injections coming
every 5 to 7 days. The dosage obviously
would be lower as well, generally in the
range of 25 mg to 50 mg per injection.
Androgenic activity should be less
pronounced with this schedule, giving
blood levels time to sufficiently
decrease before the drug is administered
again. In order to further reduce any
risks, the duration of this cycle should
not exceed 8 weeks. Should a stronger
anabolic effect be needed, a small
amount of Duramin (Deca-Duralin if
unavailable), Oxandrolone or Winstrol
could be added. Of course the risk of
noticing virilizing effects from these
drugs may increase, even with the
addition of a mild anabolic. Since many
of the masculinizing side effects of
steroid use can be irreversible, it is
very important for the female athlete to
monitor the dosage, duration and
incidence of side effects very closely.
COMPOSITION:
Each Injection 100 mg. ampoule
contains :
Testosterone propionate 25 mg. &
Testosterone Ethan-ate 110 mg
Each Injection 250 mg. ampoule
contains :
Testosterone Ethan-ate 250 mg.
MODE OF ACTION:
Testosterone Propionate : It is
a highly anabolic as well as androgenic
steroid. I t is a common oil-based
inject able testosterone. The added
propionate extends the activity of the
testosterone but it is still
comparatively much faster acting than
other testosterone esters such as
cypionate and enanthate. Propionate is
most commonly injected at least every
third day to keep blood levels steady.
This drug is quite effective for
strength and muscle mass gains.
Propionate is often very painful
injection.
Testosterone enanthate : It is
derivative of the primary endogenous
androgen testosterone, for intra
muscular administration. In their active
form, androgens have a 17-beta hydroxy
group. Esterification of the
17-beta-hydroxy group increases the
duration of action of testosterone,
hydrolysis to free testosterone occurs
in vivo.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY:
Endogenous androgen are responsible for
the normal growth and development of the
male sex organs and for maintenance of
secondary sex characteristics. These
effects include growth and maturation of
prostate, seminal vesicles, penis and
scrotum, development of male hair
distribution such as beard, pubic, chest
and axillary hair, laryngeal
enlargement, vocal chord thickening,
alterations in body musculature and fat
distribution.
PHARMACOKINETICS:
Testosterone esters less polar than free
testosterone. Testosterone esters in oil
injected intramuscularly are absorbed
slowly from the lipid phase, thus
testosterone enantate can be given at
intervals of two to four weeks.
Testosterone in plasma is 98% bound to a
specific testostrone estradiol binding
globulin and about 2 % is free. The free
testostrone concentrate will determine
its half life.
About 90%
of a dose of testosterone is excreted in
the urine as glucoronic and sulfuric
acid conjugates of testosterone and its
metabolites, about 6 % of a dose is
excreted in the feces, mostly in the
unconjugated form.

used to stimulate puberty in carefully
selected males with clearly delayed
puberty.
FEMALES:
