Masteron Propionate
General Info
Masteron Propionate is an anabolic steroid that has great androgenic activity and mediocre anabolic effects. It is one of the most common forms of Masteron. It is a DHT derivative with a methyl group, and a carboxylic acid ester added to the hydroxyl group of 17beta, which just increases its anabolic strength. Propionate is a shorter form, which is often used in shorter steroid cycles.
Also, it perfectly improves muscle definition, increases muscle hardness and density. This ability is highly regarded and proper for bodybuilders who are interested in improving their constitution. It makes athletes appear fuller by increasing muscle density. The remedy is often used during cutting cycles.
Besides, it does not induce fluid retention and has a mild diuretic effect, so it is often used before the competition. Its excellent fat burning effect reduces fat by 5-7% of the original, in one cycle.

Administration & Dosage
The drug is injected intramuscularly into the gluteus muscle. Use 22g-25g syringes with a needle 1-1.5 inch long for intramuscular injections.
The standard dosage of the drug is 200-400 mg per week. This amount will provide you outstanding results and there will be no risk of side effects. Propionate has a short half-life, so it is advisable to administer it either every day or every 2 days (you can use the scheme Mon, Wed, Fri). The optimal cycle duration is 8-10 weeks.
For beginners, as well as for experienced athletes, 400 mg per week can be OK. If the 400mg dose is not enough for you, it is recommended not to increase the dosage but to combine it with another steroid. Often Masteron is taken with Testosterone, Trenbolone, Winstrol, or Oxandrolone.
Women can safely take Masteron Propionate at a dosage of 50-100mg per week for 4-5 weeks.
After taking the steroid, you should undergo PCT to normalize testosterone levels. Usually, Clomid or Nolvadex is used. If you have had other strong steroids besides Masteron in your cycle, then it is recommended to use HCG as well.
Side Effects
Masteron does not cause side effects at the correct dosage. Otherwise, the substance can cause the androgenic following impacts:
- aggression
- acne
- baldness
- hypertrophy of the prostate
- virilization in women
These effects are possible only if you have a genetic predisposition to them (that is, if one of your relatives had it). Otherwise, don't worry. Remember to use PCT after a cycle to normalize testosterone levels and prevent adverse reactions.
Use Accutane for acne, Finasteride for hair loss.
Masteron does not raise blood pressure and does not have high liver toxicity.
