Description
Anadrol (Oxymetholone) is a very powerful oral anabolic steroid. It is known for producing rapid gains in muscle size, weight, and strength, often noticeable within the first 1–2 weeks. It is typically used in bulking cycles, not cutting.
Benefits:
- Significant muscle and strength increase
- Quick weight gain (mostly water and glycogen)
- Useful for breaking training plateaus
Side Effects:
- Highly toxic to the liver (as a 17α-alkylated oral steroid)
- Causes strong estrogen-like side effects such as bloating, gynecomastia, and high blood pressure (even though it doesn’t convert to estrogen, it may act via progesterone-related pathways)
- Can suppress appetite despite being used for bulking
- Strong suppression of natural testosterone production
Use in Sports:
- Effective for size and strength, but not ideal for lean or quality gains
- Not recommended for endurance athletes due to water retention
- Often used by powerlifters or bodybuilders in the off-season
- Banned by WADA and most athletic organizations
Warning:
Anadrol is not recommended for beginners. Its use requires liver protection, estrogen control, and a proper post-cycle therapy (PCT) plan.
