Testosterone Cypionate
What is Testosterone Cypionate?
Testosterone Cypionate 250mg also known as Deop-Testosterone is a controlled substance, which means it is regulated by the government and can only be obtained by a doctor’s prescription. The testosterone’s roots can be traced back to 1889, when a Mauritian physiologist Dr. Charles Brown- Sequard when he injected himself with a concoction of testicular fluid. In 1935, Swiss researcher Leopold Ruzicka and German Researcher Adolf Butenandt discovered how to synthesize it for commercial purposes. They were awarded The Nobel Prize in chemistry for the same. It is a self-injectable drug, which means that you can inject it into your muscle after a certified doctor shows you how to do it. The drug should be injected into the buttocks and should not be injected into the veins.
Benefits & Advantages.
Some advantages of Testosterone Cypionate 250 mg are: –
- The effective half-life and duration of action of testosterone can be controlled
- It improves the bioavailability of testosterone
- The dosage is easier to manipulate
- The time between administrations is significantly increased
Uses of Testosterone Cypionate
Testosterone Cypionate 250mg is used for two purposes, first being Testosterone Replacement therapy used for treating hypogonadism, where men don’t produce enough sex hormones testosterones. Low levels of testosterones can cause mood changes, poor concentration, erectile dysfunction, and low sex drive. Additional effects include loss of body hair, muscle mass, anemia and osteoporosis. In Bodybuilding circles, Testosterone Cypionate 250mg is widely used for muscle gain, the drug remains effective for 7-8 days, requiring only weekly dosage. Some common side-effects of the drug include acne, pain and swelling at the injected area, hair growth, gynecomastia (breast enlargement), frequent erections, and mood swings. If a person experiences Chest Pain, Shortness of Breath, Discomfort in the upper body, weakness in a particular area, slurred speech, frequent need to urinate, Nocturia (need to urinate at night), trouble in urination, weak urine stream, dribbling at the end of urination, pain while urinating, inability to empty the bladder, prostate cancer, nausea, vomiting, stomach pain and swelling, frequent bruising, pale-colored stool, tiredness, loss of appetite, dark colored urine, yellowing of the skin or the whites of the eyes, fast pulse, coughing up blood, reddening of face, headache, confusion, blood clots and decrease in mental alertness, it is recommended that a individual to seek medical help immediately. Before taking the drug, the person should do a blood test to know whether they have low levels of testosterone.
What if person Misuse Testosterone Cypionate?
Misuse of the drug can lead to heart diseases, stroke, liver disease, mental/mood problems, abnormal drug-seeking behavior, or improper bone growth in adolescents. Overdose of the Testosterone Cypionate 250 mg can also lead to depression, irritability and tiredness, which can last from weeks to months.
Dosages
For Adults, the dosage is 40-500 mg injected every 2-4 weeks. While for children aged 12-17, it depends on the child’s need, so it is important to consult a doctor before using the Testosterone Cypionate 250 mg. It hasn’t been confirmed whether the Testosterone Cypionate 250 mg is safe for children under 12, so it is better to refrain from using it.
How does Testosterone Cypionate work?
Muscle Fiber Precursor Cells called “satellite cells” is activated and increased in numbers by Testosterone Cypionate 250mg. These cells can become incorporated into existing muscle fibers to make them bigger once activated, or the satellite cells can fuse together and themselves form new muscles. Control Centers can also get increased by Testosterone Cypionate 250mg nucleuses (myonuclei)—present within a muscle fiber, thereby also increasing the number of available androgen receptors that testosterone can bind to within muscle. When combined with training, which increases the sensitivity of androgen receptors and the consumption of essential amino acids necessary to support protein synthesis, the effects of Testosterone cypionate 250mg on muscle and performance is significantly increased. Testosterone Cypionate 250mg is also anti-catabolic because it blocks the ability of catabolic hormones like cortisol to bind to their primary receptors. Thus, Testosterone Cypionate 250mg is both an anabolic and anti-catabolic steroid, at the same time. This makes it important for building and maintaining muscle mass, and for rapid exercise recovery. Testosterone Cypionate 250mg is an ester of testosterone – the primary male sex hormone (androgen) in humans. In chemical terms, esters are organic (carbon-based) compounds derived from acids in which at least one -OH (hydroxyl) substituent is replaced by an -OR (alkoxy) substituent. Esters are significant in biology, often serving as lipids (fats). Per example, cholesterol is the most common steroid hormone (and technically a lipid) that serves as a precursor to many biologically important hormones, including testosterone, estrogen, cortisol, and progesterone. As such, it might help to think of Testosterone Cypionate 250mg as a modified form of the natural testosterone your body produces, containing an ester bond with cyclopentylpropionate at the carbon-17β position. This alteration to the chemical structure of testosterone makes it a “prodrug,” meaning your body converts it into a biologically active form after you administer it. Even though Testosterone Cypionate 250mg is a synthetic androgenic anabolic steroid, it is still considered a natural hormone since your body metabolizes it into the bioidentical form of testosterone. Testosterone is a powerful hormone with both anabolic and androgenic actions in the body. Androgens are steroid hormones that provide masculine features, such as body/facial hair growth, deepening of the voice, increase in muscle size, etc. Anabolic steroids are simply hormones that promote growth of certain tissues (such as skeletal muscle). Research demonstrates the efficacy of Testosterone Cypionate 250mg for increasing protein synthesis, which in turn helps build muscle (in conjunction with proper diet and exercise). However, this does not mean that a therapeutic dose of TRT will produce superhuman muscle growth. (In other words: Don’t expect to turn into a pro bodybuilder just because you’re using testosterone cypionate for TRT.) Nevertheless, Testosterone Cypionate 250 mg is certainly beneficial for supporting healthy muscle growth and fat loss, especially in males who have a hard time making much progress in the gym due to low Testosterone. Therefore, while taking the drug, it is recommended that the individual must live a healthy lifestyle, in order to see its effects. Thus, idling, over indulgence of junk food, and drinking of beer and other unhealthy beverages should be avoided.
Testosterone Cypionate 250 mg helps in controlling weight and increases energy and muscle mass. For men with low testosterone, the treatment can greatly reduce the fats in the body and increase muscle size and strength. Few men even reported a change in lean body mass, but no change was observed in strength.
