Ok, open up, here comes the spoon.
You are a male. Males have a hormone called ‘testosterone’. It’s an important one. So important in fact that some males need to use exogenous (that means from the outside) sources of it because their own natural production is too low to sustain a healthy life. So it’s kind of a big deal.
Your endocrine system is complicated and relies on a negative feedback loop to produce appropriate amounts of testosterone on a daily basis. Generally this system works fine, day in and day out, for the entirety of your life. But it is possible to disrupt this feedback loop.
Winstrol (stanozolol) is an anabolic androgenic steroid. It disrupts the natural rhythm of your hormones. While using winstrol your natural testosterone production drops to very low levels. If you use it long enough it’ll shut down entirely. While testosterone levels are suppressed other hormones are affected as well. Estrogen and more importantly estradiol are no longer being converted from testosterone because, well, you have very little testosterone. Low e2 leads to joint pain, mood swings, sleep disturbances, fatigue, erectile dysfunction, et al. It’s no good.
Estradiol is also cardio protective. It’s good to have healthy levels. In fact, higher levels are beneficial to your cardiovascular system. It’s also highly anabolic (muscle building). Low e2 is bad for muscles and for your heart.
Clenbuterol is cardio toxic (![]()
). So while you’re using a drug that’s bad for your heart you’re also using another drug that is reducing a hormone that’s good for your heart. That seems like a very bad combination.
The trade off is between health and some additional weight loss. Now you can lose weight without either of these drugs, so it’s not as if they’re necessary and you have no choice. There are also many, many other ways to effectively cut with the aid of drugs but without the risk of this combination you’ve stumbled upon. You pretty much chose the worst possible cycle for your health and with a modicum of effort you could find pretty much anything that would be better than this.
Is that “helpful”, champ?
