Anavar is known as a good agent for the promotion of strength and quality muscle mass gains, although the mild nature of oxandrolone makes it less than ideal for bulking purposes. Among bodybuilders oxandrolone is most commonly used during cutting phases of training when water retention is a concern. The standard dosage of Anavar for men is in the range of 15-25mg (6-10 tablets) per day, a level that should produce noticeable results. This drug can be further combined with anabolics like Primobolan and Winstrol to elicit a harder, more defined look without added water retention. Such combinations are very popular and can dramatically enhance the show physique. One can also add to Anavar strong non-aromatizing androgens like Halotestin, Proviron or trenbolone. In this case the androgen really helps to harden up the muscles, while at the same time making conditions more favorable for fat reduction. Some athletes do choose to incorporate oxandrolone into bulking stacks, but usually with standard bulking drugs like testosterone or Dianabol. The usual goal in this instance is an additional gain of strength, as well as more quality look to the androgen bulk. Women who fear the masculinizing effects of many steroids would be quite comfortable using Anavar, as it is very rarely seen with low doses. Here a daily dosage of 5mg of Anavar should illicit considerable growth without the noticeable androgenic side effects of other drugs. Eager females may wish to add to Anavar mild anabolics like Winstrol, Primobolan or Durabolin. When combined with such anabolics, the user should notice faster, more pronounced muscle-building effects, but may also increase the likelihood of androgenic buildup.

Dosage of Anavar

Studies using low dosage of Anavar compound note minimal interferences with natural testosterone production. Likewise when oxandrolone is used alone in small amounts there is typically no need for ancillary drugs like Clomid/Nolvadex or HCG. This has a lot to do with the fact that oxandrolone does not convert to estrogen, which we know has an extremely profound effect on endogenous hormone production. Without estrogen to trigger negative feedback, while using Anavar we seem to note a higher threshold before inhibition is noted. But at higher dosages of course, a suppression of natural testosterone levels will still occur with Anavar as with any anabolic/androgenic steroid.

Use Anavar at a level to promote growth

This makes clear that while estrogen is important in this regard, androgen action triggers feedback inhibition as well. In the context of the average bodybuilder using Anavar at a level to promote growth, we would probably expect that maintaining a normal level of endogenous testosterone release would likewise be very difficult.
