I am trying to help a female friend and I could use some advice. Last year she was running a short cycle of winny @ 20mg ED. She really liked the results she was getting (especially the strength gains, since she likes to use heavy weights), and at first she did not notice any sides. After about 5 weeks, however, she noticed that her voice was starting to change, and she stopped right away. It wasn't a major change, but it never went completely back to normal.

So when she asked me for advice on her next cycle, I advised her against using winny again, and instead she is now into her third week of anavar @ 10mg ED. The problem is that she is complaining that the anavar is not working as well as the winny. To be honest, I am a little surprised. Sure, compared to the winny, she is only using 1/2 half the dose, but isn't anavar supposed to solve all of your life's problems even at only 10mg? She is using papervar from the cat, so I am assuming that the problem is not due to underdosed or fake product.

What should I tell her?
