Question for a friend(Legit)

[Rido]

I have a friend who is on Anavar 20mg three times a week for leg day. Now she doesnt cycle and does have virilization.

I have been on TRT for almost 2 months and have done alot of reading for what the time I have been on it. but this in this forum is a new game.

I guess she has been taking pills with no appropriate guidance.

I am assuming this isnt safe. I have already advised her to get a CBC/CMP/Lipids to look over what is going on. She has had some complaints of headaches, joint pain, and insomnia.


Has anyone seen anyone be on this medication for this long? Any other suggestions other than to stop it and wait to start another cycle?

Side Note:My wife was thinking of running her first mild cycle so thats why this conversation came up with our friend. I was a little shocked when I asked her some questions etc.

My first bit of advice would be to drop the gear and get bloods done

Thanks. that's why I told her.

Anything else other that blood counts
Kidney/liver and lipids?

20mg 3x a week…

why the absolutely retarded protocol?

Can't do anything about it now .. just might as well try to help her..

Part of helping her is understanding wtf she was thinking and why she did that.

Stop taking it. Period. She’ll be lucky if the virilization reverses.

I don’t see how 20mg 3x a week did that. She must be really sensitive to it

Undoubtably because she took 20mg doses. The same total weekly dose split daily likely wouldn’t have done it.

Also to be honest. I just know tip of the ice berg. Who knows if she was doing it everyday at one point. I wouldn't be surprised if she was doing this for 8 months....

She has told me the symptoms before but I didn't know as much(said maybe 3 months ago). After this forum, anabolics book, and looking up studies. I was a little shocked about her practices


Even for some of these guys who take stuff randomly surprised me. As long as I lifted weights I knew you need to cycle, apparently some don't know. Even if it wasn't on my radar for a long time. I guess some people just talk to "bros" at the gym. I am sure y'all see that here with random posts.


Regardless.
I told her to stop. One of our mutual friends is going to go with her to get blood work. He is gonna get his baseline. He will be running his first cycle (but not like her)

I know a girl who was dating a guy that put her on tren and test. Her voice is deeper than most males now , the guy is gone, she stays single and absolutely hates the world now!
