First Time Var User - Looking Puffy/Bloated

Hi guys,

Female, 32, 5 foot 1, usually 56kg. Been weight training almost 8 years, competed twice when i was 26. First var cycle, not sure if it is legit although my source is through a good mate so i’d hope so. End of my second week, feeling a bit stronger but nothing major, back pump which sucks. I wanted to know if it would be normal to put on 3-4kg in 2 weeks. scales went from 56kg to 59.4kg, i look fluidy and my tummy looks like shit, usually have definition in my tummy. I am taking it to put on lean muscle and by no means think it is for cutting, but is that weight gain normal and should i look worse than before i took it. look a bit puffy and didn’t think water retention was meant to be a thing with var??? on 10mg slip over the day. Any thoughts, every thing i’ve read people get hard af and look good but i look like a bloody potato and looked better 2 weeks ago!!

Var is frequently faked. My guess is what you really have is dbol. Same thing happened to me when using sub-par supplier.

Real anavar won’t cause water retention.

Dammit, yeah I thought from everything I’ve read it shouldn’t. If it is dbol will i gain muscle and loose the water once i discontinue use?

can I get lean muscle gains from it, or should just stop taking it?

If it’s dbol you need to stop using it immediately unless you like the androgenic side effect like deepening of the voice, facial hair…etc

Even at 10mg split? I haven’t had any sides at all. I’ve read a few female thread that had got a bit water logged in the first 2 weeks of Var and then come right, does that sound right or should i not have any water retention at all and look hard? Its so hard to tell because i say i look fluidy and friends at my gym say i look lean but i just don’t look how i usually do and my stomach is off.

It may be dbol or anadrol… or maybe, you are a bad responder to this drug. I saw it once, actually two girls bought the same var from the same lab, took it at the same doses, same schedule and guess what? One girl got great results, dry, hard, dense, great pumps and the other one, got puffy, felt very bad, problems with blood pressure caused by water retention, so… About Var, I think some can get great results while other cannot… I’m the one that cannot use it, I’ve tried several times, but aways get too much water retention… don’t get any of it while on EQ or even DBOL… strange but true

I’m actually the same way. It’s all about sensitivity to DHT. Proviron and masteron can make me end up feeling like trash. I can use eq all day and be golden.

That’s so weird aye! Well this was my one go at cracking into the mild steroid world, was a fail so will just say it wasn’t meant to be. I have tried Anvarol the legal alternative from Crazybulk in the UK and got mad results. Was just looking forwards to getting a bit more size on my lower body. oh well. Cheers for the reply brother!!

Yes man! Trial and error… this is the start point for everyone that wants to use steroids… you’ll need to try and see how your body/ mind respond to the drug. Same as you, I’m using EQ for 2/3 years non stop… my blood is ok, hematocrit ok, red blood cells is ok and I don’t need to do donation or use any meds for it… EQ keep RBC a little above, but thats the point! A little.

If she wants to use var, IMO, I would try another source or change the drug, try primo or EQ… primo is a great choice for girls… Winstrol can do the same effect you just got from var, some get super hard and some get puffy/ soft of Winstrol…

Yea man. I agree. I’m comfortable with my overall size so running eq off and on (more on than off haha) is easy. I use no anti e, no donation except for routine draws every 10 weeks for overall health functions etc. zero anxiety blah blah blah. Trial and error.

Stop taking it. Too many androgenic side effects, as someone else stated. I know it sucks, but the sides can be irreversible.

My guess is you don’t have anavar.

Anavar at 10mg a day won’t give you back pumps or bloating. 10mg dbol would do all of that.

If you are going to say ignorant things in here maybe you should go elsewhere. In nearly 20 years I’ve never seen real anavar cause androgenic side effects in a woman under 20mg a day.

Anavar is often faked and it’s obvious when it is.

If you’re gonna argue with someone you should look at the context of what they’re saying. She’s concerned her var is faked with dbol because of extreme water retention. I’ve had faked var, and said, as a woman, she should stop taking it if there’s a chance it’s not the real deal. Dbol isn’t a good choice for females, as I’m sure you’ve observed in your 20 years of being an ‘iron monster.’
