Stanozolol – Winstrol

Winstrol, also known as stanozolol, is a synthetic anabolic steroid that mimics testosterone in the body. It features both anabolic and androgenic properties, potentially leading to virilization in women. Once readily accessible, genuine Winstrol products have become increasingly rare. Numerous online sources promote availability, but investigations reveal many contain counterfeit formulations or harmful contaminants. The rise of illicit sales has caught the attention of the DEA, highlighting the legal risks associated with purchasing anabolic steroids over the internet. Notably, many Winstrol products are reported to have safety concerns, making it crucial for bodybuilders to avoid online purchases where purity cannot be verified.

Indications

Winstrol is a synthetic derivative of testosterone developed by Winthrop Laboratories in the 1960s. It serves as an indication for treating hereditary angioedema and has been investigated for use in unresponsive anemia cases and weight loss for HIV patients. Historically, it was also used to enhance livestock weight gain, administered intramuscularly once weekly, though this is now challenging to find due to its widespread abuse and potential side effects.

Dosage in Medicine

For farming purposes, Winstrol is administered intramuscularly to promote livestock weight gain. For human use, it’s available in oral tablets. For hereditary angioedema, doses typically reach 2 mg three times daily, continuing for 1-3 months without significant side effects. Anabolic effects usually manifest between 3-4 weeks and may intensify over time, with mild androgenic effects appearing at higher doses.

Side effects

As with all anabolic steroids, Winstrol has potential side effects, generally tolerable for most users. Common side effects include:

• jaundice
• hepatic necrosis
• liver cancer (rare)
• testicular atrophy
• decreased libido
• mood changes, including depression and anger
• gastrointestinal disturbances (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea)
• gynecomastia
• voice deepening in women
• hair loss
• excessive hair growth in women
• fluid retention
• elevated blood sugar levels
• lowered HDL cholesterol

While many changes return to normal post-cessation, some virilizing effects may persist. Female users should discontinue Winstrol at early signs of virilization, as some features may become irreversible. Additionally, reports of serious liver damage exist, necessitating regular liver function monitoring for those using anabolic steroids.

Contraindications

Winstrol is contraindicated in individuals with:

• male breast cancer
• prostate cancer
• female breast cancer or hypercalcemia
• pregnant females
• known allergies to steroid drugs

Dosage for Bodybuilders

Bodybuilders commonly use Winstrol to enhance muscle gain and athletic performance. It promotes gradual weight increase without water retention, effectively burning fat while preserving lean muscle. Medically, the recommended oral dosage ranges from 2-6 mg daily, but bodybuilders often exceed standard doses by 5-15 times. Some report doses of 30-100 mg/day, despite the elevated liver toxicity associated with higher amounts. Intramuscular injections, typically around 50 mg/day, may be used, though caution is advised to prevent abscesses with frequent injection site changes. Users often take the drug in a cycle leading up to competitions, typically discontinuing it 2-3 weeks prior to avoid detection. Results become noticeable after 3-4 weeks of consistent use, enhancing performance for brief periods. However, misperceptions exist that abusing higher doses yields superior results, while experts suggest limiting cycles to 4-6 weeks. Stanozolol is often cycled with other substances like Masteron, Equipose, Oxandrolone, GH, or thyroxin. Additionally, individuals may employ Clomid to counteract testosterone suppression during recovery. Due to risks of water retention, many athletes turn to diuretics for excess fluid management. Alternative options like furazabol also exist, generating unique benefits at lower doses, primarily improving cholesterol profiles—though negative impacts can emerge at higher dosages.

Females

Stanozolol is popular among female athletes for its potent anabolic effects with minimal androgenic impact, reducing virilization risk. Nonetheless, high doses or prolonged use may trigger unwanted virilizing features, which may not fully reverse despite cessation.

Sports

All major sports organizations prohibit Stanozolol, implementing urine screenings to detect its presence up to 5-7 days post-usage. Bodybuilders often misuse the drug before competitions, falsely believing it to be undetectable after two weeks. However, advances in testing have revealed detectable metabolites for up to two months. The prevalence of anabolic steroids in bodybuilding communities often stems from peer influence rather than informed decision-making.

Cost and Availability

Numerous online retailers claim to sell Winstrol, but the DEA’s scrutiny raises questions regarding product authenticity. The most prevalent formulations originate from Thailand, while Winstrol may also be smuggled from Mexico, Russia, and Europe. Injectable Winstrol is frequently sourced illegally from veterinary programs. Prices vary, typically around $2 per tablet, with bulk purchases (like 200 tablets at 2 mg each) costing between $150-$200. Ensure you purchase from reputable sources to guarantee product quality and authenticity.

Legal

Under the Controlled Substances Act, stanozolol is classified as a schedule 3 drug requiring a prescription. Possession, sale, or distribution without legal rights can result in fines and imprisonment. Recent concerns regarding steroid-related incidents have tightened prescription controls, leading most physicians to hesitate in prescribing it to avoid consequences for their medical practice.
