Metenolone

Metenolone, also known as primobolan, is a synthetic anabolic-androgenic steroid (AAS) derived from dihydrotestosterone. It is available in both oral and injectable forms. Metenolone acetate is the oral form, while metenolone enanthate is the injectable form. These esters affect the duration of the drug's activity in the body.

The primary therapeutic use for metenolone has been in treating conditions such as anemia and muscle wasting diseases. It has also been used to promote weight gain and preserve lean body mass in patients who are recovering from surgery or severe illness. Metenolone is known for its relatively mild androgenic properties compared to other AAS, making it a potential choice for individuals seeking anabolic effects with fewer virilizing side effects.

In bodybuilding and athletic circles, metenolone is sometimes used for its purported ability to promote muscle growth and fat loss. However, its use in these contexts is often outside of medical supervision and carries potential health risks. Like other anabolic steroids, metenolone can cause adverse effects. These can include, but are not limited to, liver strain (especially with oral forms), cardiovascular issues, hormonal imbalances, and psychological effects. The legality and availability of metenolone vary by country, and its use for non-medical purposes is often prohibited.
