Anastrozole is an antiestrogen medication that is often used in sports, especially among bodybuilders and representatives of strength sports.
The main purpose of taking Anastrozole is to prevent the development of gynecomastia, fluid retention in the body and other side effects that may occur after a prolonged course of powerful anabolic steroids.
Here are some properties of the medication:
- significant reduction in the level of aromatization (up to 80% of the initial level);
- powerful inhibitory effect;
- blocking of estrogen levels;
- Quick action: the maximum concentration of the active substance in the blood is reached 2 hours after ingestion.
In sports, Anastrozole is used in two situations:
1. When side effects from steroids appear, such as primary signs of aromatization and estrogenic effects. In this case, the dosage of the medication ranges from 0.25 to 1 milligram per day.
2. To suppress the estrogenic effects that may occur during and after completing a course of anabolic steroids, as well as to prevent relapse. In this case, the dosage may vary depending on the individual body response.
Before a course of steroids as a preventive measure with therapeutic dosages.
