Deca steroids are one of the most popularly used anabolic steroids of all time and have been so for generations. in most cases deca steroids refer to the drug Deca-Durabolin, formally known as Nandrolone Decanoate. while this high class of anabolic steroid is often simply called "Deca" this label isn't entirely accurate due to "Deca" or Decanoate being an attached ester, not the actual drug. There is actually a few deca steroids available; there are even drugs of a non-anabolic steroidal nature that use this ester; several of them but it is without question Nandrolone Decanoate that carries with it the most popularity among all the deca steroids.
Nandrolone decanoate is a man-made steroid hormone with a physical structure similar to the male sex hormone testosterone. the drug is administered as a deep intramuscular injection. after absorption into the bloodstream, the drug travels to the muscles and other body tissues, exerting testosterone-like effects. Due to serious and potentially life-threatening side effects, the medical uses for nandrolone decanoate prove limited.
 
Applications:
Nandrolone decanoate is an injectable sort of the anabolic steroid. Nandrolone decanoate displays relatively powerful anabolic attributes. Dissimilar testosterone, however, Nandrolone decanoate tissue-building action is attended by weak androgenic facilities. the modest attributes of nandrolone decanoate have made it among the most pop injectable steroids in global, highly preferred by athletes for its power to promote important strength and lean muscle mass increases without strong androgenic or estrogenic side effects.
Nandrolone decanoate is wide disposable in human andveterinary drug market places. Structural. Nandrolone decanoate is a modified sort of nandrolone. Esterified steroids are proposed to prolong the window of therapeutical effect following administration, allowable for a lower periodic injection docket compared to injections of free (unesterified) steroid. Nandrolone decanoate offers a keen top in nandrolone release 24-48 hours accompanying deep intramuscular injection, which constantly goes down to near baseline points about 2 weeks later. The average depot-release half life of nandrolone decanoate is eight days.
Popularity of Deca Durabolin
the unusual properties of Deca Durabolin are due to its parent steroid, nandrolone, also known as 19-nortestosterone. One of the principal positive qualities of nandrolone is that it has relatively low conversion to estrogen compared to testosterone.
 
in earlier years, testosterone and nandrolone were the only pharmaceutical injectables that were both widely available to bodybuilders and economical. Estrogen control did not then exist. for this reason, Deca's low aromatizing properties were then quite useful. Deca therefore won wide popularity.
 
Deca Durabolin Effects on Hair and Skin
An additional advantage of Deca Durabolin (nandrolone) is that this compound is relatively mild in terms of adverse side effects on the scalp and skin. this is because the 5-alpha reductase enzyme acts to reduce the potency of nandrolone, while in contrast many other anabolic steroids are unaffected by this enzyme, and testosterone's potency is actually increased by it.
 
Deca Durabolin and Joints
Further, where athletes have joint problems, in many instances use of Deca in a steroid cycle has the positive side effect of providing some aid. Even doses as low as 100 mg/week can entirely suffice for this purpose in many instances.
 
Deca Durabolin and Recovery of Testosterone Production
Unfortunately, Deca Durabolin usage very commonly has the adverse side effect of interfering with recovery of natural testosterone production after a steroid cycle. Adverse side effect on libido and/or erectile function is also common, but typically only when dosage is at least 200-400 mg/week or when the drug is used alone at any effective dose. Problems are worse when Deca is not combined with testosterone or substantial doses of more androgenic compounds such as trenbolone, Masteron, or Dianabol. There is wide individual variability in response with regard to side effects on libido and erectile function. Depression of mood is also possible.
 
Deca Durabolin Recommendations
for these reasons I generally recommend against Deca Durabolin use except where the athlete already knows that he can experience joint relief from the compound, or he wishes to see if that will be the case for him and he understands the possible adverse side effects. I prefer for Deca use to be as low as is effective for any such joint problems, and for the majority of the total steroid dosage to be from other compounds.
 
the long half-life of the drug results in slow clearance. for this reason, Deca Durabolin is unsuited to short cycles or where drug testing is a possibility. I also consider the drug a poor choice for women due to being at least as virilizing per milligram as most other anabolic steroids except testosterone and taking too long to clear if side-effects occur.
 
"Deca Durabolin" is a registered trademark belonging to Organon. Injectable steroid products are properly called this only when produced by Organon, but the name is often used for underground preparations as well. the Organon preparation is provided at 200 mg/mL.
 
Dosage and Directions:
Nandrolone Decanoate should be administered by deep intramuscular injection.
Normal adult dose: 250mg every one to 2 weeks. Side Effects and Special Precautions:
Virilization which appears in sensitive women as hoarseness, acne, hirsutism and increased libido; In prepubertal boys as an increased frequency of erections and phallic enlargement, and in girls as an increase of pubic hair and clitoral hypertrophy.
Hoarseness may be the first symptom of vocal change which may end in a long-lasting, sometimes irreversible deepening of the voice.
