Why do people use proviron?

[Deleted member 127229]

I get it works good for libido, But why do so many guys run it in their cycles if it’s barely anabolic? Plus it’s expensive as hell

For one, it lowers shbg and allows for more free test to be in circulation.

But all DHTs do that. What are the chances someone’s running a cycle with zero DHTs in it, Unless they are cruising. Very few guys seem to have a problem with low free test even on just testosterone from what I’ve read. Example my free T is 901 with my total as 2224 on only 350mg of testosterone.

It’s not that pricey at 50mg/day. All things being equal, it brings a harder and leaner look vs say just test alone. Also helps with mood (for me at least). Additionally, it’s a pill which is a big selling point for many. It’s nothing magic but a nice icing on the cake addition.

Yes I have read it helps dry you out nicely when you get into the single digits BF.

My free T would be in the gutter without it. I run it on blast and as part of my trt. I know there’s a few who use it for their trt on here or did. The mood part is a nice bonus.

Yes and this is key here - low body fat. Like mast, proviron really shines when one is leaner. Not to say it’s useless otherwise but leaner will make things more noticeable.

I never experienced any mood change on it unfortunately. It is pharma and at 50mg a day I only noticed an increased libido. Might try 75mg and see how that goes because I still have 3 boxes of it

I always thought in my case it had to do with how low my free T is. That’s why it’s so noticeable for the mood improvement even with a lower dosage.

Which pharma proviron do you have ?

Viropace. It’s the brand dashpct sells.

I get the same effects with masteron .

The reported rationales for Proviron use are:
1. Hardening, peaking (physique)
2. Promotion of well-being (QoL metric; mental alertness, "stimulatory"); sexual vitality (e.g., libido)
3. SHBG reduction (increased free androgen index)

I've got a lot to say on this one at some point, there are some unique features and considerations/contraindications.

It certainly has its use cases, but bodybuilders would generally be better served by Mast...

I’ve never really fucked with proviron but I frequently hear it described as an oral (and usually somewhat inferior) version of masteron in its effects.

l am still natty at 54, for many years l have had high Total T, low Free T because of extremely high SHBG, and also have high Estrogen if l don't use dim. Have tried all natural alternatives with no luck in lowering SHBG. Would Proviron work long term in this case without suppressing natural production of T, or am l better off getting on TRT to free up test at my age?

I would be extremely interested to read any write up you do on proviron, I always greatly enjoy reading your posts here.

Proviron is suppressive to HPTA. So it would make no sense to use it if you are natty. Especially at your age when your testosterone is already very low.

As with most of the things you written, I would be very interested in what you have to say on this subject. Do you think you’ll be releasing something on it soon?

Interested to hear your input.
I'm into powerlifting and I love Mast with all my cycles.

I have yet to use proviron but am throwing in 50mg ed on the cycle I’m about to start as a possible replacement for mast. I get super anxious and depressed along with other sides which mimic crashed e2 while on mast unfortunately..

I believe proviron is one of the only oral aas which is not liver toxic which is a plus for me.
