Testoxyl Propionate

is an injectable anabolic steroid manufactured by Kalpa Pharmaceuticals. Test prop is the third type of testosterone after cypionate and enanthate. The main difference is that, unlike the other long-acting esters, it has a much shorter duration of action - only 1-2 days. In their book "Doping, prohibited drugs in sport" Dirk Clasing and Manfred Donike write "For intramuscular application of testosterone esters duration of their effects on the body depends on the type of ester: elevated levels of testosterone at a dose of 250 mg Enanthate intramuscularly are observed within 1-2 weeks, and 50 mg propionate – within 1-2 days." On the basis of its androgenic effects, Testoxyl Propionate as well as enanthate and cypionate esters, is excellent for mass and strength increase. Yet, the athlete receives a significantly lower water retention while taking Test P. Since it starts acting almost immediately, you need only 1-2 days to feel a burst of energy and desire to train, increased appetite, slight increase of power, etc. Many prefer injections of 50 mg as an initial dose. Some weight lifters often inject in the day before the championship a bigger test prop dosage in order to rise the level of testosterone in blood for the next day and set new records. Men who are afraid to use testosterone, because of the fear for side effects may rely on propionate since the weekly dosage is only 350 mg, whereas with other esters the dose easily gets to 4-digit range. In addition, compared with enanthate is a more soft compound and better tolerated by the body.

How to use Testoxyl Propionate

The key to success with this hormone lies in administrating regular injections of relatively small amounts of the drug (50-100 mg every 1-2 days). Together with Testosterone Propionate one can start a several weeks lasting enanthate course, taking 250 mg of enanthate and 50 mg test p simultaneously. If the action of test prop decreases after 2 days, then another 50 mg injection should be done. After 2 more days the increased level of testosterone due to propionate ester injection decreases, however, at this time enanthate already started to work therefore further injections of test prop are not required. Thus the athlete reaches a high level of concentration in the blood rapidly, but with longer esters this high level will be kept for longer periods. This, for example, is important for those who, used Anadrol 50 over 6 weeks, gaining good amount of weight and now want to move on with test. Since the gained weight begins to go down very quickly after anadrol 50 is discountinued immediate action of testosterone is needed. Another option can be injecting Test P every other day. The best results are achieved with 50-100 mg per day. For weight gain a good combination is 100 mg testostrone propionate daily, 50 mg Winstrol Depot every other day and 30 mg Dianabol every day. This hormone is also widely used during contest preparation. The combination of 100 mg every other day, 50 mg Winstrol per day, 76 mg Parabolan every other day and 25 mg Oxandrolone / day provides good results and is quite suitable for building "Quality" muscles. Women love it for the opportunity to avoid androgen related side effects, but one can succeed only if it is properly administered. The whole point is in increasing intervals between injections for the testosterone level to drop and to avoid the accumulation of androgens in the body. Therefore, women are injecting Testoxyl Propionate every 5-7 days at a dosage of 25-50 mg. Duration of the cycle should not exceed 8-10 weeks. Higher doses and frequent injections bring faster and qualitative results, but it's not adviseble for women to do that.

Side effects

Although they are similar to those of enanthate and cypionate, it occurs less frequently. Yet at the appropriate genetic predisposition and very high doses it can cause standard androgen related side effects: acne, hair loss on the head, increased gwoth of body hair, deepening of the voice. Gynecomastia, despite the high level of convertion to estrogen appears less fequently than when receiving other kinds of testosterone. The same can be said about a possible water retention in the body. Receiving testosterone stimulating drugs like HGG and Clomid are still needed because Testoxyl Propionate has a strong impact on hypothalamus-pituitary-testes axis and thus suppresses the endogenous testosterone production. The toxic effects on the liver is minimal, the damage is almost unnoticed. The only uncomfortable thing is frequent injections.
