All 17-Alkylated Steroids are not created equal...or are they?

[dudewhatsupyo]

Hey guys I was looking around online and a question popped into my head. The major problem with 17-alkylated steroids is their hepatotoxicity. On a mg to mg basis, are all oral steroids just as toxic to the liver? For instance, the medical community uses Methy-test (Testred) to treat many hypogonadal issues and the reccomended dosage is 10-40mg/day. Most people dose Dianabol in the 10-40mg/day range as well. And finally Methasterone (Superdrol) is usually dosed around 10-30mg/day range. In your experience, how do the 17-alkylated steroids listed (or others not listed) compare in liver toxicity and the gains acquired while using them? Are they all just as toxic per mg, but have different anabolic qualities?

stuff like winstrol, methl-test, halo, are all really bad for your liver

dbol, tbol, drol are not as bad for your liver, but they are not super healthy either

var is slightly more mild but still not very good to take for long

all are anabolics. which means you will either gain a ton of mass, or at least lean mass/strength

17-alkylated is 17-alkylated and will affect the liver the same per mg the only difference is the additional side effects of the compound that is 17-alkylated that separates them.

For one, the medical community rarely ever uses methyl test to treat hypogonadal issues. In fact, it is a dead practice.

Two, each oral AAS has it's own degree of toxicity. They're NOT all equally toxic per mg...not even close. The doses used with some orals are completely unacceptable in comparison to others. Some commonly used doses with certain orals will kill you when using other orals. For example, many, many guys have run 150 mg of Anadrol per day without issues, but running 150 mg of methyltrienolone per day will likely lead to complete liver failure within days.

It is a BIG mistake to assume all orals are equally toxic per mg.
