Beyond testosterone cypionate: evidence behind the use of nandrolone in male health and wellness

Seems apparent that preventing the down regulation of Nandrolone to
5α-dihydro-19-nortestosterone is paramount to successful use.

How do we do this? Dose as low as possible in an attempt to avoid diminishing returns? A good practice with all AAS but in this case I focus on something else.

Finasteride.

Finasteride stops the conversion of Nandrolone to DHN.

This is another thing I'm interested in but haven't tried. You always hear do much crap about finasteride. But I do have a premonition I down regulate To DHT heavily. Maybe in turn I down regulate to DHN as well. But i live NPP

So from what the minimal studies on nandrolone state, is that their is no proof of joint healing. Yet everyone in the bodybuilding world says it does. I wonder why this is.

I run test and Deca a lot and i love Deca. I had shoulder surgery on my right shoulder in 1996 from playing college football and without Deca my shoulder is really sore after lifting especially from bench press. I would describe the soreness as if you threw 50 baseballs hard and you havent thrown a baseball in 20 years. Your shoulder would be hurting like that the next day. When I take Deca I have very little soreness sometimes none at all. I think this stuff is amazing. No other AAS does this for me. Same thing with my knee. I just have some arthritis in my knee, with Deca it doesn't bother me at all.I can jog and do sprints while on it. Without I am limping some days after workouts. I feel it works like an anti inflammotory and with the increased joint lubrication and collagen synthesis . I dont feel like it heals anything because when I come off the drug the aches and pains return after it clears your body.

I hear ya. But my question would be then what is the difference between Deca and NPP. They are the same compound but different esters. Yet I e is said to have zero effect on joint pain and the other is. Also why is local administration of nandrolone detrimental to healing while systematic administration may offer relief

I have never ran NPP so I cant speak on it. I have ran Deca a lot. From what I read of the two, They are supposed to give the exact same results, just NPP doing it faster. But as we all know these compounds can effect people in different ways.
