PROVIRON HELP GAINS?

I'VE COME ACROSS SOME ARTICLES ABOUT WHY SOME PEOPLE AREN'T MAKING GAINS WHILE ON CYCYLE, BESIDES FROM THE OBVIOUS DIET,TRAINING,AND REST, THE BIGGEST CULPRIT WAS SHBG.PROVIRON IS SUPPOSE TO BE GOOD AT BINDING TO SHBG. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE WITH PROVIRON. HAVE YOU DONE A SIMILAR CYCLE TWICE ONCE WITH PROVIRON ONCE WITHOUT? ANY IDEAS AND INFORMATION IS HELPFUL

ive heard a few times prov binds to shbg, which in theroy would allow more test to be free and be used for building muscle. i dont see it being a huge diff though, im sure it helps but if it really helped that much i think more people would have noticed better gains, also introducing it say 1/2 way into a long cycle would theortically speed up the slowed gains, as one reason gains slow on test is shbg levels get very high after a while(one reason there are advocates of cycles which taper up in dosage continually throughout the whole cycle), and all the test binds to it, so prov would keep so much from binding, but the thing is how well it does this, and i dont think its a huge diff. but i could be wrong

I read some similar studies. I think it deserves some more reseach. In theory is sounds good but I don't know anyone who has tried it. I will give it a shot on my next bulking cycle but that won't be for a while. I do know that some people have huge gains on test while others struggle gaining with normal dosages. This could start to explain it.

Hi mate. Yes you are right, proviron binds extremely strongly to SHBG, in fact more strongly than any other steroid. Therefore proviron use will free up any other steroid that binds to SHBG, such as testosterone, estrogen, and so on. Basically increasing the amount of active steroid in your system, whilst also increasing the rate at which it is cleared from your system.

Now I am an advocate of provion use, I like it as an anti-e and to maintain good sex drive post cycle. But I would not use it specifically for its SHBG binding properties. Frankly it is a lot cheaper to add in some more test than to use proviron just to try and get more active test in your system. In addition it will not have any effect on steroids like d-bol which bind poorly to SHBG anyway. Also we have to remember that your SHBG levels on cycle will be signifcantly lower than off cycle.

But if using it as an anti-e or for some other reason, yes I think you could expect some addtional benefits in the form of more free test (or certain other steroids). I like it anyway.

THANKS BRO

drab, you said shbg levels are lower on cycle, i thought if test was included shbg would rise? why is it lower?

Good ole post!

what ever happened to superchicken?

Sex hormone binding globulin is one use, It also attracts the aromatase enzyme and binds more advidly with it - yet can not aromatize, is two uses, The third and I feel most important use for this drug is as an alternative to using test. How many people have run a tren- winny cycle and thrown in prop to avoid fina dick? Well you throw in the prop, and then you have to worry about anti-e's and water retention - just so you can offer you girl a good stiff pole. Well the reason for fina dick - or deca dick is that these compounds lack dht. Proviron is methylated DHT - adding just proviron to a fina cycle or even a deca cycle will fix the problem, without having to resort to test use if you would rather not.

Coming off on proviron however is not a good idea, since it is also recognized as a 'weak steroid' and will end up causing suppression.
