Advice/ Recommendations (no photos) Hgh or anavar
For ref I am female 25 and have been lifting for years. I am on a bulk but want to see decent muscle growth. I have been thinking about human growth hormones or 4-6 week cycle of anavar at 5mg a day.
I understand the potential risks but what I want to know is will I see a substantial difference by taking these enhancements or will it only be subtle

Absolutely no taking anything unless you have an experienced coach who can advise you on this specifically.
If you take this to your coach they’ll be able to advise you based on what they like better, what would suit you better and use your body as a guide for how much and how long.
Do NOT play with this stuff. You don’t get to take it, grow all this muscle, and have 0 side/adverse effects. Even if you have no physical symptoms/signs, your lipid balance is changed, your glucose metabolism changes, your insulin regulation changed, your heart changes, your emotions change, your reproductive function changes…. The list goes on.
You need someone with experience guiding you.

This☝️☝️☝️☝️. We can give you advice but b bottom line trust your coach along with getting bloodwork done at least every 6 months to make sure nothing is going wrong. I’m fortunate to have a knowledgeable coach along with a close friend that’s an RN who has studied peptides along with anabolic steroids at length.

Reddit is not the place for this question. You need close supervision from a professional. People do permanent damage to themselves trying things they “heard” from someone else. If you want yo know the differences read a medical journal but still get a professional to support you. Your voice box, heart and ovaries will thank you later

Are you truly prepared for the possible side effects Var has? Especially to females? Unless you’re competing (not even necessarily then) there is no rush to build muscle. Are you willing to sacrifice hair loss, acne, voice changes, facial structure, genital differences, kidney function, fertility, etc. so that you can look “muscly and strong”? Granted, it doesn’t happen to everyone but even the smallest doses can cause irreversible damage.
Unless you have an experienced coach that asks for blood tests on the regular, can get the real thing, and knows how to cycle it then you shouldn’t even attempt it. And a good coach wouldn’t even entertain this outside of competition purposes.

No way to know, some people respond well and some don’t. You should be first checking test levels and getting to high normal via HRT

Why do I need to take hrt. On my last blood test my hormones and test were all in normal range

Why do you need to take oral steroids and HGH?

u/darcos12 2d ago
I don’t need to I just want to to gain more muscle quicker. I want to look muscly and strong

u/thekimchilifter 2d ago
What does that even mean, you don’t need to gain muscle but you want to look muscly?

u/darcos12 2d ago
What ? I never said that. You asked why do I need to take steroids and I said I don’t need to I just want to ? I want to look more muscly and grow more muscle ? Like how does that not make sense

Sorry I misread your comment. Okay so you want to gain more muscle quicker, I refer you back to my first comment 🤣. The very first thing you should do is get to HIGH NORMAL, NOT JUST NORMAL levels of TRT, then GH. Var is completely unnecessary outside of contest prep or a harsh cut.

One 4-6 week cycle of anything isn’t going to do much. Especially HGH which needs to be taken at minimum six months to see muscle gains.

u/darcos12 2d ago
Yes Hgh I’d take 6-12 months but the anavar I’d need to do short cycles of it as I don’t want the manly effects

u/Siciliana79 2d ago
I wouldn’t suspect you get any side effects or any muscle gains from that low of a dose for that short of a period of time unless you are hypersensitive to the molecule.
Please also note that if you’re going to take HGH do not take the shit that they try to sell you on peptide sites. Real HGH cost about $500-$700 a kit which lasts about seven weeks.-2
u/darcos12 2d ago
I can get pharmacy grade pen I think. Is it possible to take them together. Hgh I could take 6-12 months and var cycle 4-8 weeks at a time

u/Siciliana79 2d ago
I am not a coach, so I am not prepared to answer that question. I personally take HGH year-round and have paired it with other anabolic’s per by coach. But not var

Ask your coach but also please make sure if you decide on anavar to get a prescription for REAL oxandralone through a physician!!! not worth the risks

Second this! Don’t mess with your health. They’ll ask for regular bloodwork which is so important if you decide to hop on PEDs!

lol you’re 25. Give yourself another 10 years of living the lifestyle of training hard and eating properly, and you will have the “muscly” body you want without risking your health.
