Testoviron is a mixed testosterone injectable (propionate/enanthate) , produced by the firm Schering in many parts of the world. Since Schering also uses the Testoviron brand name to market pure Testosterone enanthate , one should not confuse all such items with this mixed preparation. In fact most preparations found circulating with Testoviron Depot brand name are actually the Testosterone enanthates, which are vastly more popular among athletes. When locating the Testoviron, we notice they are prepared in a number of different strengths. This product will contain a base of Testosterone enanthate, with a lesser amount of Testosterone propionate added in. Being much faster acting, the Testosterone propionate gives us a quick effect while the enanthate in Testoviron is slowly reaching circulation. The result is an injectable that will increase the Testosterone level very quickly; yet sustain an elevation for approximately two to three weeks. The design of Testoviron Depot is therefore similar to that of the testosterone blend Sustanon , although Testoviron will remain active in the body for a noticeably shorter duration.
Testoviron advantages
Testoviron is clearly not an unusual compound , as Testoviron would obviously have an effect similar to other blended testosterone products such as Sten and Sustanon . One can expect to see a rapid buildup of strength and muscle mass during a cycle of Testoviron Depot, as is to be expected with all injectable testosterones. This will likely go hand in hand with a noticeable level of water retention, as testosterone in Testoviron converts into estrogen quite readily. A loss of muscle definition is likely to result, as subcutaneous water and fat stores reduce the visibility of muscle features. For this reason the drug is not the ideal item for cutting phases of training. The added estrogen level may also cause the development of gynecomastia. In order to reduce this possibility, sensitive individuals may need to add an antiestrogen like Nolvadex and/or Proviron during each Testoviron cycle. In Testoviron testosterone preparations will also suppress endogenous androgen levels, so a stimulating drug like HCG and/or Clomid / Nolvadex may be needed to avoid a post-cycle crash. Since this effect of Testoviron is particularly pronounced with testosterone, a combination of both drugs may prove to be the most useful in many cases.
Testoviron Depot side effects
Testoviron also converts to the more potent steroid DHT (dihydrotestosterone) in many areas of the body, a process that is responsible for the strong androgenic activity of this hormone. Testoviron is therefore likely to produce a number of unwanted androgenic side effects, including oily skin, acne, body/facial hair growth and male pattern hair loss. Those who have an existing male-pattern hair loss condition, or believe they may be prone to this problem, may wish to stay away from Testoviron for this reason. Strong androgens can easily aggravate cases of hair loss, a side effect of Testoviron use that is pretty much irreversible once noted. Others may simply opt to include a daily dosage of Proscar/Propecia, which will greatly reduce the buildup of DHT and lighten the androgenic nature of testosterone. We must remember however, that while Proscar offers us help, it is no assurance this side effect will not develop during a cycle including Testoviron all androgenic effects are mediated by the same receptor as anabolic. Deca-Durabolin would still be a much safer choice in this regard however.
Package and types of Testoviron
Testoviron is clearly an acceptable alternative to standard testosterone preparations. Testoviron ampules are not commonly found on the black market, but are certainly a good choice if located. Here in the U.S., Testoprim-D like Testoviron ampules are the most likely to show up. This is not a counterfeit item as other steroid references may list, but is in fact a legitimately manufactUred Mexican pharmaceutical. Counterfeits of this item have never been located, so Testoprim (Testoviron) will probably remain to be a safe buy for some time. When looking for Testoviron in Mexico, we see a single light resistant ampule that is packaged in a white and red box, bearing black print. With the ampule, we also note that the writing is printed directly on the glass surface. The ink used is a white/grayish color that does not smear with a good thumb rub. By the time Testoviron is found in the United States, these boxes have usually been discarded (the ampules are easier to smuggle loose). Aratest similar to Testoviron from Mexico has also been circulating, and is the only version of this mix to come in a multi-dosed vial at this time. Early unconfirmed reports have been that it is a markedly underdosed product however, so be careful. The only fake to note in this section is actually a different but similar testosterone propionate/undecanoate blend bearing the company name Octagon, avoid.
