What Is Raw Proviron (Mesterolone)? Raw mesterolone is a crystalline powder, white to yellowish and does not dissolve in water. It is commonly known by its brand name, Proviron. Each Proviron tablet/pill contain around 25mg raw mesterolone powder.Unlike other steroids, raw Mesterolone features very weak or even zero anabolic activity. For this reason, it is not referred to an anabolic steroid. It is administered orally thus no mesterolone injection. Schering developed Mesterolone in 1934. It is rated among the oldest steroids used alongside Methyltestosterone and Testosterone Propionate which were developed and used in medicine in 1935 and 1937 respectively. Testosterone propionate and Methyltestosterone were more known due to their strong anabolic activity. Proviron was considered a weaker steroid thus its popularity did not proliferate compared to the other two steroids. As much as Mesterolone (Proviron) is considered an ancient drug, its positive features still stand out up to date. It is a very effective medication regarding tolerance among users and safety. In the medical field, Mesterolone (1424-00-6) is used to treat reduced well-being in ageing men who suffer lido dysfunction, infertility and low androgen levels. It is one of the best oral anabolic steroids. In medicine, mesterolone (Proviron) was mainly used to correct infertility. While other androgenic or anabolic steroids suppress endogenous gonadotropins causing temporary infertility, Proviron, when used in standard dosages does not affect the levels of LH in the body. However, it is good to not that Proviron does not raise LH levels like some people tend to believe. According to research, Mesterolone boosts spermatogenesis in testes by providing the androgenic effects needed for this process. Proviron steroid is unique in its way but shares some traits with Winstrol, Masteron and Anavar. Performance wise, Mesterolone is not used to boost buildup of muscle mass. However, it plays an essential role during bulking cycles. Its usage is more relevant in cutting cycles, although, its function is also unique in this phase. Schering currently manufactures Mesterolone under the brand name, Proviron, worldwide. It is sold using different names, for example, Asche and Jenepharm in Germany sell it under Pluriviron and Vistimon respectively. Brown and Burke 2

in India sell it under the name Restore. Sadly, Proviron has never been approved as a prescription drug in the US
Raw Proviron(Mesterolone) Chemical Characteristics Mesterolone is a Dihydrotestosterone derivative altered through the inclusion of a methyl group, 1-methyl-dihydrotestosterone, on its 1st carbon. For this reason, this drug does not undergo hepatic breakdown thus can be administered orally. Among the oral anabolic steroids, Proviron is one of the few without C17-alpha alkylated but rather carries a methyl group. Oral Primobolan falls under the same category as Proviron concerning the methyl group. C17-aa oral steroids feature a higher bioavailability than Proviron. This has affected Proviron’s popularity among performance enhancing bodybuilders negatively. Comparing with testosterone, Mesterolone carries an anabolic and androgenic rating of 100-150 and 30-40 respectively. Testosterone rates at 100 in each category. Even with a higher anabolic rating, Mesterolone displays minimal anabolic activities than testosterone. The same case goes to Halotestin that is known for the high anabolic rating but low anabolic activity. Proviron’s androgenic rating is at times lower the androgenic activity levels. As discussed above, this drug displays insignificant anabolic features thus commonly referred to as an androgenic steroid. Just like DHT, its parent compound, Proviron is broken down and metabolised into inactive metabolites rapidly immediately the muscle tissues absorb it. This is the main reason why it has weak anabolic activities. The enzyme 3-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, which is highly concentrated in the muscle tissues, bind to dihydrotestosterone and converts it into a blend with zero anabolic effects. Proviron, therefore, becomes a very weak anabolic steroid. Rumours among bodybuilders have it that Proviron bars androgen receptors found in the muscle tissue thus making its anabolic activities weak. Scientifically, this is not the case. Mesterolone features a superb affinity for Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG), a protein that attaches itself to anabolic steroids, such as testosterone, making them inactive. When Proviron is used together with other anabolic steroids, it boosts the effects and activities of the anabolic steroids through this process. In the end, more testosterone is free to perform its function in the body. 3

Proviron can interact with the enzyme that converts testosterone to estrogen, also known as aromatase enzyme. This steroid hinders aromatase activity by binding itself to the aromatase enzyme and therefore preventing estrogenic side effects. Its anti-estrogenic effects may not be as powerful as those of an Aromatase Inhibitor, but the effect is notable. The levels are dependent on the type of cycle a bodybuilder undertakes.
Raw Proviron(Mesterolone) benefits in bodybuilding (What does Proviron do?)
Bulking cycle benefits Proviron is not the main steroid used by bodybuilders during bulking cycles. Some will not even use when off the cycle. However, including Proviron in a 4

stack, helps a bodybuilder breakthrough a stagnant point along the bulking phase. Progress may begin to wane and at times halt at some point during the cycle for most individuals. Proviron will be of much benefit at this point since it enhances the freedom of other steroids included in the stack thus boosting their level of activity. Competitive bodybuilders use large dosages of testosterone during a cutting cycle, but usually, the dosage is lower during this phase compared to off-season cycle. However, some users opt to take limited amounts of testosterone when of cycle season for some personal reasons. Mesterolone comes in handy in such a case since it gives the required androgen boost. This might be deemed as unnecessary, but it is very beneficial.
Cutting phase benefit Raw Mesterolone is best used, by bodybuilders, during the cutting cycle. During this stage, it displays hardening features similar to those of Masteron. Although, its most significant benefit is its ability to enhance the hardening performance of the other steroids included in the stack. Proviron binds strongly to the androgen receptor enabling the user to burn body fats faster and more efficiently. Considering Proviron’s anti-estrogenic effects, users will suffer minimal water retention, and probably, there will be no need of including a traditional anti-estrogen in the stack. Also, Proviron increases the number of free testosterone. This is of much help since testosterone levels are generally low during this period of anabolic steroid use. Results will be higher for individuals who include Proviron when on low testosterone doses compared to users who do not. In a nutshell, the significant benefit of mesterolone during the cutting cycle is its ability to improve the androgenicity of other steroids included in the stack with the aim of hardening the physique. Effects of Proviron dosage can only be noted if the user is lean.
Anti-estrogenic nature As discussed earlier, Mesterolone (Proviron) is a derivative of DHT. This means that its use does not bring about any estrogenic side effects. Compared to other anti-estrogen pills, for example, Nolvadex, Proviron though not very strong, is a more effective estrogen inhibitor. To make it clear, Proviron hinders the production of estrogen while the other pills suppress the already produced estrogen in the body. Bodybuilders who are sensitive estrogen should use Proviron alongside other steroids. Estrogenic side effects caused by other 5

steroids are mitigated by Proviron when included in the stack. Due to its anti-estrogen feature, Proviron is now used in the medical field to treat breast cancer and gynecomastia.
Fat loss Proviron steroid, just like other DHT derivative, plays a vital role in body fat loss. It promotes the breakdown of fat deposits stored in the body into energy used in the day to day activities. In return, the lipid level in the body is reduced. The reduction in lipid levels is brought about by increased androgen levels caused by Proviron usage. This is why Mesterolone is very efficient during cutting cycles.
Inhibits aromatisation Steroid use can be very daunting especially when users have to deal with aromatisation and the effects that follow. This is a process in which testosterone in the body or that which is administered through the steroids is converted into estrogen. The effects that follow include water retention, weight gain, gynecomastia, hormonal fluctuations among others. Estrogen also stimulates the production of an anti-anabolic stress hormone, known as cortisol. The good news is that Proviron does not aromatise. It hinders this dangerous process by binding itself to the enzyme that promotes aromatisation. Therefore Proviron prevents estrogenic activities and therefore offers protection against the side effects brought about by these activities.
Improves the activity of other steroids To achieve maximum results, bodybuilders stack anabolic and androgenic steroids with Proviron steroid. First, as mentioned earlier, it hinders estrogenic side effects. Secondly, Proviron plays the role of a catalyst for other steroids making them more effective. It can do this since it binds itself to the androgen receptors in the body system. In the long run, all the steroids added to the stack become more active. For example when used together with Anavar or Androlic Steroid.
Reduces sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) 6

Sex hormone binding globulin binds the available testosterone in the body reducing the number of free testosterone. Proviron has a high binding affinity to this hormone, therefore reducing it, resulting in an increased number of free testosterone. The free testosterone promotes muscle build up during bulking and cutting cycles. Individuals who include Proviron in their cycle stack will most definitely enjoy better results.
Corrects male infertility Mesterolone 1424-00-6 is a proper medication for male sub-fertility or infertility condition.In most cases, this problem is brought about by reduced levels of sperm production. Although details regarding male infertility and fertility are not very clear, it is believed that sperm production is dependent on gonadotrophins and androgens, for example, testosterone. These hormones are responsible for stimulating the sexual organs. Proviron, on the other hand, stimulates androgens but it does not affect the gonadotrophins. This translates to satisfying Proviron sperm count boosting fertility.
Perfect for contest preparation Proviron is a perfect companion when preparing for a competition. It aids in maintaining strength, improving muscular visibility and maintaining muscle mass throughout the contest preparation period. Countless bodybuilders have used Proviron for cutting and bulking since it increases the levels of androgen while reducing estrogen levels. In the long run, users enjoy androgenic benefits such as maximum power output and fat burning effects while water retention is minimized.

Treats impotence As discussed earlier, Proviron enhances testosterone. In return, testosterone relieves the symptoms of impotence, also known as, erectile dysfunction. It also amazingly adds libido; this a reason enough for any bodybuilder to add it in a stack.
No mesterolone injection The thought of using a needle on the skin may discourage bodybuilders from using a steroid. Luckily, Proviron is taken orally, just the same way you could take a pain reliever. If you are the type that hates needles, then Proviron should be your choice not forgetting the other bodybuilding benefit it has to offer.
Anti –depressive benefit 8

One of the medical tests done on mesterolone indicated that this steroid could better the psychological state of some users suffering from depression. This has attracted usage among individuals suffering from this condition. Scientifically, the test results were not conclusive since a similar observation was made in the placebo control group. Proviron features high androgenic effects thus can increase hormonal imbalance and male sexual performance. In turn, Proviron improves a sense of well-being, confidence and boosts a positive and good mood in the bodybuilder.
Raw Proviron (Mesterolone) Dosage Mesterolone, the best oral anabolic steroid, is used in two different ways; for medical purposes to treat some illness and for bodybuilding. Proviron benefits are many but can only be enjoyed when the right dosages are administered. The doses recommended for each purpose will be discussed below. A 25mg tablet should be taken a day thrice to treat potency and reduced male sexual features. The total dosage should be 75mg per day. This dosage is administered at the initial stages of treatment. The dosage reduces to 25 mg tablet once per day with time. A similar Proviron dosage is used to treat male infertility. Other drugs are used along Proviron to achieve best results. Performance enhancing bodybuilders use a dose of 50mg to 150mg daily. According to research, Proviron half-life ranges between 12 to 13 hours. The primary purpose of this dosage is to reduce the levels of water retention, mainly caused by estrogen. Also, this dosage ensures that the level of testosterone in the body system is as required to prevent any chances of infertility after the cycle. In most instances, men will use 100mg per day as the minimum dosage. However, both 150mg and 100mg daily doses will be highly beneficial in equal terms. Proviron dosage administration lasts typically for eight to twelve weeks. To overcome a sticking point that mostly occurs at the last weeks of the cycle, a six weeks Proviron course will work the magic. Female users involved in vigorous sports do use Proviron. However, its use by women s highly discouraged. In case a female decides to use it, a dosage of 25mg per day should be enough to enhance muscular visibility. The intake should not exceed four to five weeks otherwise the user will suffer virilization side effects. Proviron and pregnancy are incompatible. Pregnant and nursing mothers should keep off this drug.

If you plan on using Proviron, stacking it with other steroids will do you more good than harm. Mesterolone people also search for Winstrol, Androlic, Primobolan, Anavar and Masteron, which work well with the drug during cutting cycles. It boosts the androgenicity of the steroids used in the stack to give the desired hard physique. Some users may include it in a bulking cycle if it proves to be beneficial to them.
Proviron overdosage No reports so far on the adverse side effects caused by acute overdosage of Proviron steroid during cycles or when running amesterolone PCT. However, unlimited usage of androgens follows severe side effect such as cardiovascular disease, virilisation, psychiatric disturbances, gynecomastia, liver problems, reduced glucose tolerance, tendon damage, withdrawal syndrome, hypogonadal states and gastrointestinal bleeding. A clinical assessment should be done on individuals to determine the symptomatic treatment to be used. Users should have adequate knowledge on when to take Proviron and the dosages to be administered to avoid overdosage.
