Drostanolone propionate (masteron) is an injectable anabolic steroid (DHT) derived from dihydrotestosterone. Here, the main chain of DHT is modified with a 2-methyl group to increase its anabolic properties, making the compound more effective than the unmethylated parent in promoting muscle tissue growth. Drostanolone Propionate is described in the product literature as a “steroid with powerful anabolic and anti-estrogenic properties”, and its anabolic properties are relatively mild, especially when used in combination with other anabolic drugs. This drug is most commonly used by bodybuilders who are losing fat and athletes with high agility requirements, as it greatly promotes the gain of lean muscle mass, and also powerful strength gains, while this process is usually accompanied by a reduction in body fat levels and very few side effects.
Drostanolone Propionate Side Effects
Drostanolone propionate side effects include symptoms of masculinization like acne, increased hair growth, voice changes, and increased sexual desire. It has no risk of liver damage. The drug is a synthetic androgen and anabolic steroid and hence is an agonist of the androgen receptor (AR), the biological target of androgens like testosterone and dihydrotestosterone (DHT). It has moderate anabolic effects and weak androgenic effects, which give it a mild side effect profile and make it especially suitable for use in women. The drug has no estrogenic effects. Drostanolone propionate is an androgen ester and a long-lasting prodrug of drostanolone in the body.
Drostanolone propionate uses in bodybuilding and drostanolone propionate dosage (for men)
To enhance fitness or performance, the drug is usually injected 2-3 times per week. The total weekly dose is usually 400-800 mg for 6-12 weeks. This dosage and cycle is enough to make a very large improvement in lean muscle mass and strength.
Drostanolone Propionate is often combined with other steroids to enhance the effects. Common Cycle combinations include injectable anabolic steroids such as Deca-Durabolin or Equipoise can bring about significant muscle growth without excessive water retention. To increase muscle mass, they are often combined with injectable testosterone. Compared to using these steroids alone (usually at higher doses), the combination results in firmer muscles with lower water retention and other estrogenic side effects. However, Drostanolone Propionate is most commonly used in the fat loss and preparation phase. Here, it is usually used in combination with other non-aromatizable steroids (such as Winstrol®, Primobolan®, Parabolan, or Anavar), which can greatly aid in muscle retention and fat loss.
Drostanolone Propionate Usage (Females)
When used to enhance fitness or performance, the most common dosage is 50mg per week for 4 to 6 weeks. Doses equal to or less than 100mg per week are rarely associated with side effect symptoms. Please note that due to the short-acting nature of propionate, the total weekly dose can usually be divided into multiple injections every two or three days.
