Compare receptor targets, appetite effects, hormone selectivity and clinical research without equating limited data with proven safety.
Monitoring tests associated with metandienone use
What liver enzymes, bilirubin, lipid profiles, blood counts and hormone tests can reveal, and why normal results do not establish safety.
Metenolone acetate: oestrogens and progestogens
Why metenolone does not aromatise, how suppression can still lower oestradiol and why this does not make the compound risk-free.
