OxaActive substance: OxandroloneOther names: Oxanobol, Oxandrolon, Anavar, Xandrol, OxandroxylActive life: 8-12 hoursDetection time: 3 weeksAnavar is one of the most favored oral anabolic steroids, largely due to its favorable tolerance. It stands out as one of the few anabolic steroids that can be safely used by both men and women, and is renowned for its mild side effects.Effects of Oxandrolone:* Muscle GrowthSince Oxandrolone does not convert to estrogen, any weight gained will be in the form of lean muscle mass without water retention. However, users should not anticipate large weight increases typically associated with steroid bulking cycles. For female users, this steroid can be particularly effective during the off-season as many women are not aiming for significant mass increases; even a modest enhancement in muscularity can be significant.* CuttingOxandrolone is highly effective during cutting phases. Its strong anabolic properties make it ideal for preserving lean muscle while dieting. Using Anavar during this phase can also help speed up fat loss. Once a user achieves a leaner physique, they will notice increased muscle definition and vascularity.* Athletic Enhancement:Oxandrolone is known for enhancing strength, though not to the same extent as other steroids like Danabol or Halotestin; it still significantly improves speed and power. Athletes prefer this steroid as it does not lead to excessive weight gain, which is often not desired in various sports, and it does not cause water retention.* Enhanced PerformanceUsers of this steroid tend to experience improved recovery rates and increased muscular endurance, allowing them to train harder and for longer durations without tiring as quickly.Side effects: No estrogenic side effects, possible hair loss, body hair growth, no cardiovascular side effects, potential virilization effects in women (such as body hair growth, deepened voice, clitoral enlargement, and menstrual irregularities), medium hepatotoxicity, and mild testosterone suppression.How to use:For males aiming for performance enhancement, the suggested dosage ranges from 20-30mg daily, though many find that 40-50mg is more effective. Some seasoned users may take up to 80mg per day, but this increase the potential for side effects. Standard cycles are typically 6-8 weeks in duration.For females, the typical dosage is around 5-10mg per day, regardless of the intended use. However, some may opt for 15-20mg daily, which significantly raises the risk of virilization. Standard cycles for women will also last 6-8 weeks.
