Oral turinabol (4-chlorodehydromethyltestosterone) – anabolic steroid which is similar in effects and chemical structure to methandrostenolone. The word “oral” in the title means that this anabolic remedy is taken orally (by mouth). Unlike methandrostenolone is turinabol that contains an additional chlorine atom at the fourth carbon atom. The drug was first developed by the German pharmaceutical company Jenapharm and patented in 1961. Creator is Albert Stachowiak.

The drug can be described as Methandrostenolone, without the effect of fluid retention in the body.

This delayed acting steroid. During the course turinabol weight, power output and relief progress very slowly, but from the words of athletes these results are better.

Another distinctive feature of the drug – the lack of estrogenic effects (because not exposed to aromatization, due to the addition of the chlorine atom in the molecule), that is, side effects such as fluid accumulation, gynecomastia, etc. almost never occur. Although there are reviews, which reported on the development of gynecomastia, the mechanism of its development remains unclear. The most likely reason is the presence in the composition of methyltestosterone, which is associated with the peculiarities of the synthesis.

Also, it was determined that reduced the concentration of SHBG, therefore increasing the level of free testosterone in the blood. There is evidence that turinabol reduces the risk of blood clots in the blood vessels and heart.

Synonyms: Turinabol, Turamoth, Turanabol, Turinabolos, Turnover.

Steroid profile

Historical background

To achieve success in the Olympic games, starting with the 60-ies of the last century, East Germany has developed some of the most effective anabolic steroids, including oral turinabol. The developers have described it as a combined version of Methandrostenolone and Oxandrolone with moderate anabolic effect (comparable to testosterone) and a low incidence of side effects.

Turinabol cycle

During the preparation for the Olympic games was the optimum dose of the drug that caused the least side effects is 20-40 mg per day, in three divided doses, but bodybuilders are often neglected by these recommendations, bringing the dosage up to 100-150 mg a day.

The drug can be used as in muscle mass gaining and drying. Turinabol cycle does not require using of gonadotropin (if not more than 6-8 weeks), but FCT is held by the estrogen receptor blockers (tamoxifen). Turinabol is considered to be one of the most simple and safe in bodybuilding, so often recommended to beginners. For the first course optimal dosage is 40 mg/day for 6 weeks. This allows to obtain impressive results, both in terms of growth of quality muscle mass and progress the speed and power of the results.

For muscle mass is better suited combined cycle: Turinabol (20 mg) + Testosterone Enanthate 250 mg per week (or Sustanon 250). The average duration is for 6 weeks.

Athletes who are not interested in mass and try to increase speed and endurance (boxers, wrestlers, runners, etc) recommended a lower dose – 10-20 mg per day. Note, however, that in recent years using of Turinabol has become problematic in terms of anti-doping steroid, as recently discovered (2012) long-lived metabolites are determined for six to eight months. A great contribution to this incredibly long period of discovery introduced the latest developments in the field of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.

It should also be noted that on the black market is a lot of fakes (sometimes with another active principle), whereby the obtained results do not always justify the expectations.

Turinabol side effects

Turinabol is an anabolic steroid for oral ingestion, however, it creates a toxic effect on the liver, comparable to methandrostenolone. In general side effects are rare and most often associated with exceeding the duration of the course and high doses. This drug strongly inhibits the secretion of testosterone. Possible erectile dysfunction after the cancellation, there have been cases of the development of premature ejaculation.

Violations of the liver: cholestatic jaundice, necrosis of hepatocytes with liver failure, liver cancer. From the biochemical parameters determined by increased levels of bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase and transaminases. Cholestatic jaundice may develop after 6 months and more (is toxic origin) and is manifested by bile stasis in the capillaries with hyperbilirubinemia and increased alkaline phosphatase activity. When applying for several years may increase the frequency of liver cancer.

Was recorded in the official report a carcinogenic effect in 5 years of using turinabol at relatively high doses.

Endocrine disorders: Turanabol less than other medications for men can cause: inhibition of spermatogenesis and impotence (secondary to decreased secretion of gonadotropins and testosterone with testicular atrophy and oligospermia), prostatic hypertrophy (predominantly in the elderly); epididymitis; priapism. Boys may be precocious puberty, frequent erections, the risk of suspending growth.

Neurological disorders: agitation, confusion, insomnia, depression.

Metabolic: decreased glucose tolerance; increase in low density lipoprotein (LDL); the acceleration of the excretion of creatinine; increase in the content of creatine kinase; swelling relatively rarely observed due to a slight delay of sodium and water; a delay of potassium, calcium and phosphorus. Patients with prolonged bed regime may develop hypercalcemia.

Other: puberty can prematurely close epiphyseal zones of the bones with stunted growth.

In women, the drug rarely may cause a decrease in the secretion of gonadotropins; the phenomenon of virilization (acne, hirsutism, coarsening of the voice, increased libido, menstrual irregularities, clitoral hypertrophy, muscle development). Pregnant women may develop virilization of the female fetus. Frequency data of adverse effects in Turanabol low.
