Also in the definition phase, in which a lower dose of anabolic steroids is used than under normal use, methenolone must still be used in relatively high doses. Since the objective of definition phase is not building new muscle, anabolic steroids during this period are not used in high doses. Methenolone is an exception in this sense, because it must be taken in high doses for it to fully show its strength.
It is among the safest forms of injectable steroids. Methenolone is a derivative of dihydrotestosterone, which is very popular among bodybuilders (and especially women, for its low androgenic effects.) Further evidence of mild nature of methenolone is that it was also used in the treatment of children, infants and premature infants in order to promote weight gain without signs of adverse effects and toxicity. This makes it easy to see where the source of the attraction of this anabolic steroid comes from, especially so for the community of athletes and bodybuilders, as a substance that exhibits weak androgenic effects and very few side effects. To the long-term users, it brings only small increases in muscle and strength, but for the beginners, this substance produces considerably good results with minimal side effects. Gains are quite durable. It is almost harmless to the liver. Does not aromatises, sometimes mentioned is the occurrence of mild acne, it does not cause a significant increase in blood pressure and cholesterol levels remain normal. Prolonged use slightly affects the formation of testosterone. Since the substance is a derivative of DHT, it causes excessive hair growth and for a particular genetic disposition causes excessive hair loss.
