Nandecos 200 mg/ml (Nandrolone Decanoate) 10ml vial

Nandrolone Decanoate, derived from 19-nortestosterone, is an injectable anabolic steroid. It’s worth noting that nandrolone can be produced naturally in the human body after intense physical activity or during pregnancy, although in very low concentrations.

Structurally, nandrolone differs from testosterone by lacking a carbon atom at position 19, earning it the name “19-nortestosterone.” This structural distinction makes nandrolone more similar to progestins. Compared to testosterone, nandrolone exhibits significantly less androgenic effects, but its interaction with progesterone receptors leads to distinct side effects.

Unlike testosterone, which converts to the potent androgen dihydrotestosterone (DHT) via the enzyme 5-alpha reductase, nandrolone converts to dihydronandrolone, an extremely weak androgen. This makes nandrolone a favorable choice for male athletes with prostate problems.

Nandrolone has a relatively low risk of side effects. Its low androgenic activity reduces the appearance of problems such as acne, baldness, and excessive body hair growth. However, it’s important to note that these side effects may occur if the recommended doses are significantly exceeded.

Compared to testosterone, nandrolone converts to estrogen approximately six times less rapidly without the intervention of aromatase enzymes. While the liver primarily converts nandrolone, the primary site of conversion for other steroids, adipose tissue, remains less susceptible to this process. Consequently, nandrolone presents a minimal risk of estrogen-related side effects, such as gynecomastia or water retention. The drug’s estrogenic activity becomes apparent only at very high doses.

These beneficial properties contribute to Nandrolone’s popularity as an anabolic steroid for gaining muscle mass. Nandrolone is also known for its ability to minimize muscle loss after a cycle.

Effects

• Promotes significant muscle growth with minimal post-cycle muscle loss
• Strengthens bones, ligaments and improves skin regeneration
• Relieves joint pain by increasing the production of synovial fluid
• Increases red blood cell mass, improving oxygen transport and increasing endurance
• Boosts the immune system, beneficial for AIDS patients
• It converts to estradiol without the intervention of aromatase enzymes
• Improves intestinal absorption of amino acids and nutrients

Side Effects

• Binding to progestin receptors can lead to increased prolactin production, suppressing the secretion of gonadotropic hormone and causing decreased testosterone levels, mild fat gain and, in rare cases, gynecomastia.
• Possible side effects include increased blood pressure, abdominal pain, irritability, headache, and depression.
• Rare side effects may include headache, back pain, and gynecomastia

Dosage

• To relieve joint pain and strengthen bones, a dose of 50-150 mg per week for 5-10 weeks is recommended.
• To gain muscle mass, a dose of 200-800 mg per week is commonly used, with an average of 400 mg of Nandrolone combined with 500 mg of testosterone per week.

Profile

• Half-life: 7-9 days
• Frequency of intake: Once a week
• Nandrolone decanoate is a long-acting ester suitable for extended mass-gaining cycles. Typical cycles last 8-10 weeks, although some experienced athletes may use it for up to six months, gradually increasing the dosage. For amateur athletes, it is not recommended to exceed 8 weeks without additional medications. Long cycles should include the use of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). If hCG was not used during the cycle, it is recommended to take it at the end of the cycle before starting post-cycle therapy (PCT).
