I have a medical question for the forum regarding therapeutic and body-building use of oral C17a-AAS (Oxymetholone, Anavar, Diandrol, etc) and would appreciate your collective input. The general medical community is versed poorly in steroidal drugs and many of you represent a great group with real life experience in side effect profile, negative experiences and performance use with some of these medications. I've come here asking for your insights and thoughts, if you'll please bear with the background narrative...
I have a medical condition that over time can cause bone marrow failure. Mine is less severe. People who have a severe form of this disorder are first given danazol or oxymetholone on a daily basis to boost marrow (increase blood cells such as white, red and platelet counts).
I enjoy working out, biking and being as active as I can. My blood is mildly affected, but very slowly declining over the years. Partly why I am here, I have more fatigue and less stamina so find working out such a chore, and I don't want to wait as my quality of life suffers. My thyroid and testosterone are "normal". I met a German doctor at a conference who was giving low-dose danazol to a patient with some good results, just to keep him feeling better, keep on weight. I reached out to him and eventually was referred to the study in the US, which I don't qualify for- yet! Not everything has to be done on a research basis, but that's the system. I'm seriously wanting to take my health and quality of life into my own hands.
All that said, what are your thoughts on using these drugs (Oxymetholone, Anavar, Diandrol, etc) alone? Thoughts on a preference of drug or a regimen for safety that doesn't involve pinning? You all cycle these meds within a larger multi-drug regimen from my reading. I would be using it for my bone marrow and hopefully energy/endurance/weight effect. In your opinions, not seeking medical advice, would I be doomed to testes shrinkage? Liver toxicity? Gynecomastia? for likely no benefit in the realm of performance enhancement? Not a problem to get blood followed, part of my monitoring protocol anyhow.
Many thanks to all that reply.
