The effects of Testosterone Propionate begin just one day after the first injection. The product has itself all the benefits of other testosterone esters but with fewer water retention.

Just to remember, Testosterones main properties show an increase of strength and muscle mass, training aggressiveness, improved post training recovery.

While using Propionate you will shortly notice an improved muscle pump and appetite, that’s to say after one or two days of use.

The main difference between testosterone esters that are propionate, cypionate, and enanthate is the different durations of effectiveness. Contrarily to the others, propionate has a very short duration of effect requiring to administrate every two days. On the other hand it is comparatively much faster acting. This is because esterified forms of testosterone are absorbed more or less slowly into the muscle, but once in the bloodstream, as the ester chain is removed, the active form of the hormone is available.

Also depending on the ester attached to the17b hydroxyl radical, the hormone active life will differ. Those of Propionate is quite short, but despite a high rate of aromatization, it doesn’t cause as gyno as other esters.

Testosterone propionate at 50 to 100 mg every 2 days can be combined with Winstrol Depot (50 mg every 2 days), and 25 mg of Oxandrolone daily.
Side effects:
Testosterone propionate induces an increase of IGF-1 levels up to 20%, which in turn can be responsible of developing some cancers, increasing size of some organs like intestines, kidneys … IGF-1 also reduces bodyfat levels in the same way growth hormone does. Knowing that, you will adjust your diet with some of essential fatty acids, omega 3 three fatty acids and other good vegetable oils such as olive oil plus fatty fishes like salmon, sardine etc…

It should be noted that Propionate also severely suppresses HPTA function. Consider to use HCG and / or Clomid for a good recovery.

Of course, testosterone being aromatized to estrogen, more precisely to estradiol, an anti-estrogen like Clomid should be used.

Women should also consider the strong androgenic activity of testosterone. This includes deepening of the voice, facial hair growth and clitoral enlargement.

Another side effect of steroids is on cholesterol: good one diminishes as bad one increases.Blood pressure and triglycerides levels are also negatively affected. However, these parameters don’t evolve noticeably at doses fewer than 600 mg per week.
