Was it worth it!?

[LittleMs.Lace]

So did my first cycle of Decca this summer. Now my voice sounds like crap. It's getting annoying always thinking up excuses for why I sound different to friends and family. It has been four months since stopping cycle. Is there ANY HOPE for my voice softening more over time? Any suggestions would be more than appreciated. How could a 6 week cycle of such a low dose do so much harm...ugh...

Ya I'm realizing that now. My husband thought it was female friendly. Apparently not because I experienced all the side effects plus major gains. I did 1/2 cc or 125 mg once every 9 days for 6 weeks....so I've now been told it can last in your system 3 more weeks after final shot causing more damage. So technically it's been 3 1/2 months and my voice still sucks. Can't yell at my kids without sounding like a dude... Think I still have hope for my voice to return over time? Waaaaa poor me. Lol

I knew there had to be a guy somewhere behind the deca!! damn men sticking their noses into female friendly compounds

You know ladies, some men like a woman that doesn't sound mousy. There was a lady that had a sitcom in the nineties, Brett Butler and the show was grace under fire. She had a deeper voice for a woman and it was really nice.

To be very honest LittleMs.Lace & answering your Thread tittle "Is it worth it ?"
For me, no
I ran a Primo cycle for 8 weeks, never had any sides, but was in constant fear that my voice would change.. I stopped it at 8 weeks, because to me the risk was still there & I wansn't willing to take it.

My voice never changed, but as a women & someones that enjoys to sing, I think I would have been totally devasted it if my voice changed..

So is it worth it ?? Nope, not to me..

Sure, I love to push myself & look the very best I could, but it's totally possible the natural way too.
You can be lean & look your best without the use of AAS.. not saying I'm against women using AAS, just a personnal preference.

Most women do stick to var & Primo because of the milder sides,
bu,t nothing is set in stone, u could still have deepening of the voice with either, so what it comes down to, is, would u be ok if you experience any of these sides ?
You should really do your own research & make your own educated decision, I know husbands/boyfriends "think they know what would work best for us" but when it comes down to compounds that could "irriversably" have sdes that could impact your body, you really have to make your own decisions & weigh in the risks..


Honestly most women that experience voice deepening never fully recover, your voice might recover some, but, it's highly unlikely it will be back to how it was before.

The good thing is, you know now what the risks are & I'm sure you'll have more control of what you do in the future.


Best of luck 2 u~

Ugh..you're right Mrs.P...fantastic pic btw! ..I have become an introvert now because of my voice. I'm starting to learn to accept and live with it, but the lying about it really is not my thing. I know how to work out and eat clean. I chose to run a cycle and now I'm living proof of the damage aas can do to not only your body, but your psyche... Do you compete?

Thanks for the compliment LittleMs.Lace
I don't compete, just not my thing.

And yoru right, you have to make the best of it, give it some more time, hopefully it will get better.
And if it doesn't, that's ok too, I know u hate it, but try & not to let it define u.
You keep doing your thing

Take care~
