Buy anabolic steroids online » Buy Cytadren
Cytadren is not an anabolic/androgenic steroid. Since Cytadren is a steroidbiosynthesial inhibitor it belongs to the group of sex hormones. Cytadren inhibits the build up of androgens, estrogens, and the suprarenal cortical hormones (glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids).
Cytadren has a highly anti estrogenic effect since, on the one hand, Cytadren inhibits the body's own estrogen production and, on the other hand, it obviates the conversion of androgens into estrogens. This is especially encouraging since it helps to keep the estrogen level of bodybuilders low. The second highly interesting point is that Cytadren prohibits the build up of adrenocortical hormones. It obviates the production of endogenous cortisone like no other compound by inhibiting the conversion of cholesterol into cortisone. For this reason, Cytadren, in school medicine, is used for the treatment of Cushing's syndrome, a hyperfunction of the adrenal glands which causes the body to overproduce cortisone. Consequently, it reduces the cortisone level, which has several advantages for the athlete. Cortisone is a catabolic hormone and catabolic is the exact opposite of anabolic. Cortisone prevents the protein synthesis in the muscle cell, resulting in a muscular atrophy by breaking down amino acids in the muscle cell.
The human body constantly releases cortisone and reacts to stress situations such as intense training by increasing its cortisone release. Natural bodybuilders, therefore, after a short time, experience a stagnation in their development since the release of the body's cortisone is higher than the anabolic effect of working out. The more advanced the athlete and the harder his workout, the more his cortisone level will increase.
If the release of cortisone can be successfully obviated or at least considerably reduced the ratio of anabolic hormones to catabolic hormones in the body shifts in favor of the former. This results in an increase in muscle mass and body strength. And Cytadren achieves exactly these results; however, there is one problem. Cytadren reduces the cortisone level so effectively that the body tries to balance this by hypophysially producing more ACTH (adenocorticotropic hormone), thus stimulating the secretion of cortisone by the adrenal glands. Thus in school medicine, when treating Gushing's syndrome, a low dose of oral hydrocortisone is used to prevent the hypophysis from producing ACTH.
As for the question of dosage, 2-4 tablets of 250 mg each per day seems to be an appropriate dose. The tablets are always taken individually, in regular intervals throughout the day, and taken best during meals. It is important to begin the intake by "sneaking in" which means that you begin by taking only one tablet and then slowly and evenly increasing the dosage until the respective maximum dosage is reached. How long should it be taken? This question is difficult to answer but, considering that the body can sometimes increase the production of ACTH, it is advised that the compound is not used longer than 4-6 weeks.
Thus the side effects of Cytadren need to be looked at and they are, unfortunately, numerous and /sometimes very severe. The most common side effects are fatigue and dizziness. Lack of concentration, restlessness, depression, apathy, and sleeping disorder are less common but possible. Even rarer and mostly depending on the doses are nausea, vomiting, gastrointestinal pain, diarrhea, and headaches. A possible rash and the already-mentioned fatigue and dizziness are usually initial symptoms and these can be minimized by taking slowly increasing dosages, or they may simply disappear. Another problem that can occur is liver disease. Cases of reduced counts of the white blood cells, the blood platelets, and even of all blood cells have been reported. It has been our experience that athletes, due to the reduced cortisone level, complain about joint pain and are also exposed to a higher risk of getting injured. There is no question that Cytadren is effective when taken according to the two-day alternating administration schedule; however, the athlete should carefully consider the cost/benefit factor prior to taking the compound.
