Name:

Enanthate
Chemical name: Testosterone Enanthate
Chem. Abstr.
Name:
4-androsten-3-one-17beta-ol
Molecular
Structure: CH26H40O3
Molecular
Weight: 400.6
Product Desription:
Qualitatively similar
to
testosterone and
its esters in physiologic
activity, testosterone enanthate has the advantage
of prolonged effect.
In
hypogonadal males,
the effect of a
single
injection of 250 to 500
mg of testosterone enanthate was observed
to be
maintained for
2 to
4 weeks, which is 2 to 4 times longer than the
effect
produced by a comparable
dose
of testosterone propionate.
Presentation:
Each 10
ml multidose
vial contains
250 mg
per ml
and
comes
with a
green
coloured
flip-off top. Some vials currently in circulation have a light blue coloured flip-off top.
Testosterone
Description: by Bill
Roberts
-
Testosterone,
as
the
natural product drug and one of the most widely used AAS, is
the
most
convenient choice for a reference drug to
which all
others will
be compared.
Particular
properties of testosterone
that are of note
include that
it converts enzymatically
both to DHT and to estradiol (estrogen). While with
normal levels of testosterone these conversions are in
fact desirable, with supraphysiological
levels
caused
by drug
adminstration
they
can be undesirable. DHT
is
at
least three times
more potent (effective per
milligram) than testosterone at the androgen receptor (AR): therefore, in those tissues
which
convert testosterone to
DHT,
there is
effectively three
times
as much
androgen
as elsewhere
in
the body. Thus,
whatever level of androgen is experienced by the muscle tissue is multiplied threefold or more in the
skin
and in the prostate. This can be excessive. Proscar could be used
to
keep
DHT levels
more or less
normalized despite heavy testosterone use, however.
Excess conversion to estrogen
is also
undesirable
since it
contributes to inhibition of the hypothalamic/pituitary/testicular axis
(HPTA),
can cause
or aggravate gynecomastia, can cause bloating, and can give unfavorable
fat
pattern distribution.
This conversion can be
somewhat reduced by use of aromatase inhibitors such
as Cytadren,
and/or the effects of the estradiol produced may
be blocked in
many tissues,
including
the
hypothalamus
and breast
tissue, by Clomid.
Among the most
significant differences of synthetic
AAS compared to testosterone
is that they may avoid either or both of
these
enzymatic
conversions.
Another
difference
results from the fact that not all activity caused by androgens
is mediated
by
the androgen
receptor, and not all AAS are comparably effective
in these
other
activities.
Testosterone
used
alone is capable of
giving
very effective results, particularly with
doses over one gram per week, and can give substantial results with only 500 mg/week. If no other drugs
are used, however,
side effects such as
gynecomastia
are fairly likely. Prostate
enlargement, worsening
of
acne, and acceleration
of male pattern baldness (for those genetically susceptible to
it) are particularly
severe because
of the effectively-higher
androgen
levels
seen
in these tissues
as
a result of local conversion to the more-potent DHT. Synthetics which do not convert to DHT give only the same effective
level of androgen in these
tissues as
in the body as
a whole, rather
than
effectively
three
times
the
level. This is a significant advantage.
A particularly interesting property of testosterone is its low toxicity,
exclusive
of
the above-mentioned side effects.
Doses
of
two grams or
four grams
per week are hardly unknown in bodybuilding,
and are not particularly
hard on the
liver. No one seems to want to
take
doses of any other single steroid at
comparably-effective
doses,
and
it
seems that if one tried, they might
be more
toxic. E.g., the
hepatotoxicity
of
Winstrol Depot resulting from its 17a -methyl group is not severe at doses of say 350 mg/week,
but
might well be problematic at a dose of two grams
per
week – though
that is
speculation, since
no one I have heard
of uses
such doses
of Winstrol.
Thus,
at
the higher dosage regimes
testosterone
appears to have
an advantage in terms of toxicity vs. effectiveness
over
many of the
synthetics. These doses, however, are in the pro bodybuilder
range.
In
the dosage range more
appropriate
for most individuals,
the
reverse is often the case.
