Ok, Im no guru with female use of anabolics but my gf has been using for years so here it goes.

I think Deca was a bad choice for you personally. Its nots really a beginners drug thats for sure. The ability to get harsh side effects from Deca is very high and by not trying some of the milder drugs out there like primo, var or even EQ, you dont know what your threshold is. Getting a deeper then normal voice, clitoris enlargement, hair growth in places you never got it before or even possible jaw growth is not something you want to mess around with.

Ok, so there is the semi-lecture. Here is some advice. Dont expect to get too lean using the Deca. When my gf used it, she said she got really bloated. This may not happen to you as side effects generally dont mimick 100% from person to person but she told me its not something she would ever do again if she was trying to get lean. 75 mg/wk seems ok. Most of the girls here will probably tell you that it is a "little" on the high side for a first cycle. See, back to the other point I made, this may not be a high dosage for "you" but it is hard to know since you did not experiment with milder drugs to see how you reacted.

Basically Im kind of torn. I honestly dont know if I would recommend you stay on the Deca and finish the cycle or if you should switch it up and go to something a little more mild. Anavar at 10mg/day is a nice beginner cycle for a female. Id personally say to start at 5mg/day and work your way up. There is also the Primobolan option but honestly, the chances of getting legit primo these days are only a bit better then Arnold coming out of retirement to win the Mr. Olympia this year.

Ill tell you what my gf feels works best for her. EQ. She absolutely loves the stuff. She doesnt get bloated at all on it. She puts on some quality muscle and stays really lean on it. She also says that it is one of the best drugs for strength that she has ever tried. She has even gone as high as 200mg/wk with basically no side effects. Mind you she has been doing this for some years. Of course, I would never recommend such a dose to a beginner. Maybe 50mg/wk, that seems like a good start. Run that for about 12 weeks but always keep aware of side effects. I feel for you woman. Most side effects that males get are meaningless. At least for the most part they are temporary side effects. You women can mess yourselves up for life. I dont mean to gross some of you out but Ive seen some female juicers with some very unappealing areas down south from being careless with the gear. Also permanently deepening your voice is not something that many girls wish for come christmas time.

I dont know what else to add. Sorry, I wish I could help out more but you'll just have to wait for our female gear gurus to come online. Supergirl is usually on late at night and Im sure she can help you more.

Biggie,

Thanks a million for your reply. Funny you should say... I am just into my 2nd week and already extremely bloated. Your comments have me concerned to no end. Especially when speaking of the side effects. I would love to hear more from gals who have tried this. I will look into some of the other things to try. And no prob, lectures are okay, only way to learn. So the big question..

To say on Deca and finish the cycle or get off and take another route. Lookin for the best route for me. Must say though I am gettin' a pretty damn good pump as soon as I start my work out!

Please keep them coming. I am extremly interested to learn more worried about taking another dose.

Thanks again....

Hi AZ... Welcome to Steriodology!!

Biggie hit the nail on the head... Deca is a bit harsh for a beginner.. You can get irreversible sides and you WILL bulk up more so than with a milder androgenic such as anavar. As you are already experiencing the bloat associated.. your libido could go either way.. some say it goes up, others complain it goes down.. kinda like with Fina. . and the thing with AAS, it effects women differently then men obviously, but it also effects each individual woman differently.. so what works for one may not work for another...
With that said..
IMO, i lower your dosage to 50mgs a week if not even lower.. 75 is just too much. Make sure your diet is really clean.. this will help a bit with the bloating and also will allow you to gain lean body mass rather than bodyfat/bulk... If you start experiencing virilization (masculine sides) STOP IMMEDIATELY.. although remember.. deca is long acting and will keep working in the body for a couple of weeks... This is one of the reasons deca is not a beginner's drug because you are not familiar with virilization and when sides become apparent, it is often too late...
also, IMO, i would of suggested a more anabolic steroid such as anavar or light primo for your first cycle...

Honestly AZ.. at this point, just lower your dosage, eat clean, and monitor your body VERY closely... or get off.. but you should definitely be concerned about sides! Biggie mentioned the possible sides you can get.. so just keep alert...

Best of luck and do keep us posted as to what you decide to do.. and any concerns post away.. we are here for ya

luv super

Supergirl--

Thank you for taking the time. First of all to everyone, it's great how everyone helps one another here. I just discovered this site and have to say you are all great and am very happy to know it's out there. With that said.....

Here's my decision. I will drop down to 50 mg and finish the cycle. Question--how long do I stay on this cycle? 4 weeks? I will monitor diet extremely closely - Tons of water and lots of cardio. After I see the results, if I need to try a different AAS I will do some educating on Anavar and light Primo. My body is already more bulky than lean so I'm hoping the bulk doesn't get out of control on this. But I will talk your advise on trying to achieve lean body mass with diet. I already have trouble wearing jeans with my quads being so bulky. Really need to lean it up and especially with my height. Just lookin' a little to thick!

Hell, Lets hope that libido goes up girl!!! Nothing wrong with a little extra stimulation!!

I will keep everyone posted as to how my body is reacting to this. Again, can't thank you enough.....

P.S. How do you post photos here-If results are good I would like to share.


Luv, AZgirl~
