Active hormones

[Kazmir]

Not sure if this was posted but couldn't find it so I figured I would post it as it can be very usefull when determining dosages
This is a small list of how many milligrams of active hormone are in 100mgs of hormone + ester (ex. if your taking a gram of test E for instance, you would really only be getting 700 mgs not really a gram)

As you will see you get more bang for your buck with the short esters hence why people seem to say they respond better on lower doses of fast acting esters, mind you this is not a statement in any way to say that short is better than long as they all have their time and place.

EQ
Boldenone Undecylenate: 61mg - hence the reasoning why EQ needs to be ran 600+ mgs for desired effect IMO

MASTERON
Drostanolone Propionate: 80mg
Drostanolone Enanthate: 71mg

PRIMO
Methenolone Acetate: 82mg
Methenolone Enanthate: 71mg

DECA
Nandrolone Phenylpropionate: 63mg
Nandrolone Decanoate: 62mg
Nandrolone Undecylenate: 60mg

TEST
Testosterone Base: 100mg
Testosterone Acetate: 83mg
Testosterone Propionate: 80mg
Testosterone Isocaproate: 72mg
Testosterone Enanthate: 70mg
Testosterone Cypionate: 69mg
Testosterone Phenylpropionate: 66mg
Testosterone Decanoate: 62mg
Testosterone Undecanoate: 61mg

TREN
Trenbolone Base: 100mg
Trenbolone Acetate: 83mg
Trenbolone Enanthate: 68mg
Trenbolone Hexahydrobenzyl Carbonate: 65mg
Trenbolone Cyclohexylmethylcarbonate: 65mg

Yea blaze posted a pretty long detailed list in 2011. : http://www.steroidology.com/forum/anabolic-steroid-forum/596378-real-talk-half-lives-ester-weights.html

I only knew because I saved it the other day to my bookmarks. Either way both are good references to have, and probably should be made a sticky imho. Maybe someone could combine the list etc into one, as I'm too lazy to do it myself.

HALF LIFES
HALF LIFES
I've been read'n alot of threads that make me think that perhaps the functional, practical use of compound half-life may be misunderstood or just completely omitted. I also don't see many post'n bout orals and AI's half-life and their most effective uses. Also I've seen many plan'n cycles based on active -life instead of half-life which is basically a crap shoot when it comes to get'n max gains and keep'n them.


An important consideration when plann'n a cycle at least to me, in particular the timing of dose'n to be administered, is the active half-life of the drug being employed. We can play the (t) game.The half-life may be defined as the time (t) the level is half of the start'n level of a given compound; at time 2t, the level is a quarter of the startn level, and at time 3t, the level is an eighth of the start'n level, and so on.

This information is vital in the time'n of the dose'n when attempt'n to achieve a more stable blood concentration, which leads to greater overall results and maintenance of gains. Some fluctuations of concentration levels are acceptable, and are also mostly unavoidable, but should be kept to a minimum.

This covers the half-life's of the most commonly used steroids, esters and ancillary compounds.

Oral steroids

Drug Active half-life
Anadrol / Anapolan50 (oxymetholone) 8 to 9 hours
Anavar (oxandrolone) 9 hours
Dianabol (methandrostenolone, methandienone) 4.5 to 6 hours ( this is why dbol is wasted unless it is dosed at least twice daily)
Methyltestosterone 4 days
Winstrol (stanozolol)
(tablets or depot taken orally) 9 hours


Steroid esters

The half-life applies to the ester regardless of hormone attached, for example trenbolone enanthate and primobolan (methenolone enanthate) will act very similarly to testosterone enanthate in terms of release rate.

Drug Active half-life
Suspension within 1 hour
Acetate 1 day
propionate 1 day
Phenylpropionate 1-2 days
Butyrate 2-3 days
Valerate 3 days
Hexanoate 3 days
Caproate 4-5 days
Isocaproate 4-5 days
Heptanoate 5-6 days
enanthate 5-6 days
Octanoate 6-7 days
cypionate 6-7 days
Nonanoate 7 days
decanoate 7-8 days
Undeclenate 8-9 days
undecanoate Approx 20 days but math says 19.3 to be exact and yes I am a geek. lol

ancillaries

Drug Active half-life
Arimidex 3 days
Clenbuterol 1.5 days
clomid 5 days
Cytadren 6 hours
Ephedrine 6 hours
T3 10 hours


A practical example is if one was to inject 100mg of testosterone propionate and allow blood levels to peak. In approx 36 hours time (half-life duration from the above tables) and provide'n no other injections had taken place, the level would be reduced to 50mg. Again, a further approx 36 hours down the line and levels would have dropped to 25mg, and the value keeps halve'n every approx 36 hours.

Take it for what it's worth. You may find it useful I hope. But what the hell would I know lol
