MESO-Rx Exclusive Trenbolone facts - series on unique characteristics of different steroids

Basically yes. There's no question that skeletal muscle hyperplasia occurs when combining AAS & resistance training (and even clen, not to mind GH, increase it). The debate was always whether it occurs without drugs... it does.

Skeletal muscle hyperplasia ALSO happens with AAS and NO resistance training.
 
and yet people keep "entertaining " this guy by verbal jousting with him its pretty funny how this guy gets under everones skin , but hey lets keep feeding his ego lol

Does Trenbolone Have Progestagenic Activity or Increase Prolactin?

Q: “Is trenbolone progestagenic? Or does trenbolone increase prolactin? A friend did a cycle of 500 mg/week testosterone plus 500 mg/week trenbolone enanthate and got gyno, when previously he’d done just the testosterone and did fine. This has me concerned about trenbolone.”

A: Trenbolone has near zero progestational activity, as found both in veterinary science and in cell studies. Its activation of the progesterone receptor (PR) is about 100 times weaker than that of progesterone itself. Trenbolone levels achieved during steroid cycles cannot activate the PR to even a small fraction as much as is caused by natural progesterone levels.

At least one veterinary study also found trenbolone to not increase prolactin measurably, despite depressing thyroid levels.

In your friend’s cycle, prolactin may well have increased. Where an aromatizing steroid is used and estrogen levels are not controlled with an anti-aromatase, estradiol levels typically rise. This often but not always causes an increase in prolactin, and sometimes a large increase.

It’s impossible to determine why gynecomastia developed for your friend this time but not on the previous occasion, particularly as no blood test was performed. Uncontrolled increase in estrogen due would certainly have contributed. Elevated prolactin caused by increased estrogen could be a contributor.


Looks like chatgpt also agrees on this. Weird, since literally everyone is warning about tren prolactin sides.

Is it true that trenbolone doesn't increase prolcatin?

Based on the available evidence, it appears that trenbolone does not directly increase prolactin levels, contrary to common belief:

A study on sheep found that plasma prolactin was unaltered by trenbolone acetate treatment, either alone or in combination with estradiol

Human trials for anemia treatment showed that nandrolone (which is structurally similar to trenbolone) actually reduced prolactin levels compared to baseline, while testosterone slightly increased it

Research indicates that only aromatizable androgens (those that can convert to estrogen) seem to stimulate prolactin secretion. Trenbolone is not aromatizable, so it should not directly increase prolactin

The common belief that trenbolone increases prolactin may stem from the fact that it is often used alongside high doses of testosterone, which can aromatize to estrogen and potentially increase prolactin

Elevated prolactin levels observed during trenbolone cycles are likely due to the concurrent use of aromatizable testosterone rather than trenbolone itself

Some studies suggest that controlling estrogen levels through proper aromatase inhibitor use may be key to managing prolactin levels during steroid cycles

In conclusion, the evidence suggests that trenbolone itself does not increase prolactin levels. The perception that it does may be due to its common use alongside high doses of testosterone, which can increase estrogen and subsequently prolactin. Proper management of estrogen levels appears to be crucial for controlling prolactin during steroid cycles involving trenbolone.

Trenbolone decreases prolactin but has progestagenic effects. Specifically, trenbolone activates the progesterone receptor with 35% the potency of progesterone.

See Article on distinguishing progestins, prolactin, and progestagenic androgens (e.g., Tren, MENT, Deca) & SERM vs. AI logic [by Type-IIx]
