Effects of Trenbolone are compared with those of selective androgen modulators

Trenbolone is a steroid that is applied in bodybuilding for numerous years. Unluckily, this medication has never been considered to be a proper drug for medical needs. It is not approved for human use by the U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This medication has been demonized numerous times by media. A lot of articles have announced that trenbolone is quite dangerous. But recent studies have shown opposite things. It is supposed that common attitude to this steroid may be soon changed. Joshua Yarrow and his colleagues from the University of Florida assure that this product may be taken as testosterone for hormone replacement therapy. The specialists are sure that it is an appropriate alternative preparation to testosterone for the need mentioned above. Results of studies led by these experts have been published in the American Journal of Physiology – Endocrinology and Metabolism.
Moreover, the specialists proclaim that trenbolone enanthate has even some priorities over testosterone for certain persons. Bodybuilders know and support the statements connected with this medicine. It is known that testosterone aromatases. As for trenbolone, it is turned neither to estradiol, nor to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). That’s why it doesn’t lead to unexpected reactions linked with estrogen and DHT.
Joshua Yarrow says about the researches conducted by him and his colleagues. Castrated rats have been given trenbolone enanthate. Even low quantities of this drug have increased their muscle mass and kept bone mineral density. There have not been observed such unexpected results, as prostate enlargement or polycythemia in these lab rats.
But extremely enhanced measures of testosterone enanthate were required to cause the same anabolic results in muscles as were caused by reduced measures of trenbolone enanthate. But such adverse effects, as enlargement of prostate and induced hemoglobin accompanied the increased dosages of testosterone enanthate. It is suggested by the researchers that trenbolone acts as selective androgen receptor modulators, causing anabolic effects in muscles and bones without androgenic adverse reactions.
Professional competitive bodybuilders like using trenbolone some weeks before competitions because it lead to fat loss. Moreover, the researches have shown that the same quantities of trenbolone have stronger lipolytic effects than those of testosterone. It has been detected that more trenbolone an individual takes, the greater the fat loss is produced.
Since trenbolone lacks aromatization, it is usually combined with such steroids, as testosterone, Dianabol or with another aromatizable steroid. The lack of aromatization leads trenbolone to disability to be applied alone for hormone replacement therapy. The non-aromatizable property of this medicine is responsible for just partial protection of bones.
Nevertheless, it is possible to make conclusion that additional studies are required in order to use trenbolone for hormone replacement therapy.
