Andriol – one of the few “fresh” steroids that have appeared in recent years. Unlike most of the AAS, which entered the market in the 50-60s (and partly already and disappear), Andriol there is only since the early 80s. This circumstance is probably the explanation of why Andriol holds a special place among the steroids. This – a revolutionary steroid because along with methyltestosterone is the only drug oralnodeystvuyuschim testosterone. Testosterone itself when administered orally is almost useless, because resorbed through the portal vein and immediately inactivated in the liver. As contained in Andriolacting testosterone undecanoate chemical is absorbed through the intestines, and bypassing the liver enters the lymphatic system, which explains the efficacy of the drug when administered orally. When this is not the slightest influence on the liver function.
Testosterone undecanoate – a testosterone ester, turning into the human body for the most part to dihydrotestosterone, resulting Andriol aromatizes only minimally, ie Only a small part of the substance can be converted into estrogen, since dihydrotestosterone does not aromatize. Therefore, Andriol does not cause those who accept the phenomena of feminization, such for example as gynecomastia or increased production and accumulation of fat. Nearomatiziruemost Andriol allows the body does not feel the effect of the steroid hormone on its own reproduction. This happens only in cases of prolonged treatment with high doses.
Andriol – desirable alternative for athletes who have problems with conventional injectable testosterone preparations.
Women should avoid Andriol dosage since androgenic components – and in general all testosterone – very strongly manifested in women while taking this drug. When using it at bodybuilders sometimes have effects of high blood pressure, fluid retention, acne, hypersexuality, and all this leads to the phenomena of masculinization.
The great advantage of Andriol dosage – its good tolerability. It can, for example, long used in combination with Deca, and it is believed that this combination it is an alternative to the combination of the famous “Dianabol, Deca-Durabolin” for athletes consciously relating to their health.
Theoretically, Andriol should be as fast and reliably build up strength and mass, combined with noticeable water retention, as well as well-established injection Sustanon-250 and testosterone enanthate. In practice, this is not the case, and the effect of Andriol many times weaker than that of the above-mentioned drugs. Objectively Andriol – it is the main oral medication for cautious athletes who already have a negative experience with injectable testosterone and are aware of their numerous side effects, as well as for older athletes. Whoever takes Andriol at doses less than 240-280 mg per day, it will be disappointed with his action.
In principle, possible to use Andriol dosage in preparation for competitions. However, if an athlete has difficulties with the removal of water, it makes sense to refuse to accept any testosterone in this phase.
Andriol dosage should be stored in a cool place (from 6 to 15 degrees), it is better in the refrigerator. Since Capsules are very sensitive to heat, it is in contact with direct sunlight, for example, in the car, these capsules can quickly melt and turn into irregularly shaped mass. Because of its unusual form of release Andriol is very difficult to forge.
