Along with Anadur, Deca-Durabolin, and Durabolin, this is another steroid containing the substance nandrolone. Dynabolon is a favorite among athletes since it brings good results with few side effects. AlthoughiDynabolon is often compared to "Deca", its effect is mg per mg comparable or slightly less. The reason is that Dynabolon is slightly androgenic with an anabolic effect, thus Dynabolon strongly promotes the protein synthesis. The increased androgenic component helps the athlete achieve a good strength increase and an accelerated regeneration. Those who have had good results with Deca will usually respond even better to Dynabolon. Athletes report a distinct, quickly effective, solid gain in muscles, which goes hand in hand with a significant gain in strength. The increase in body weight and the improved strength are the result of the water retention in tissues and joints. Dynabolon does not strongly aromatize in dosages below 4 ml/week. Dynabolon is effective for 1-2 weeks, thus requiring more frequent injections than Deca. Bodybuilders who work with this compound usually inject it twice a week. The minimum dosage is 2ml/week. A weekly dosage of 4 ml (equal to 322 mg) is usually sufficient for most athletes to achieve satisfactory results. This requires the injection of 2 ml (equal to 161 mg or 2 ampules) twice weekly. Higher dosages would certainly bring even better gains but often go hand in hand with distinct water retention. Such dosages also aromatize so strongly that antiestrogens must be taken to main-tain the quality of the muscles. Women do well with 1 ml/week and rarely show virilization symptoms if the compound is not taken for more than six weeks. Female athletes rarely use Dynabolon since they normally prefer Durabolin, which has a shorter duration of effectiveness.
The side effects of Dynabolon in men are quite rare and usually occur only in sensitive persons' or when high dosages are taken. Possible side effects such as high blood pressure and elevated cholesterol levels, as well as acne or gynecomastia usually disappear without treatment after use of the product is discontinued. The black market price is between $15 and $20 on the black market. The red label on the ampule is branded into the glass and can be felt. It cannot be removed by fingernail or be scratched off.
