question from a user

I have 2 questions id like to hear from you guys on. What do you think about adding in deca/npp for joint support? And how do you feel about deca/NPP being a replacement for testosterone to aid against hair loss?

AlphaMD's Answer

We are advocates for nandrolone. We have seen it work wonders in regards to helping heal tendon injuries and help patients break through strength plateaus.

Nandrolone is converted to dihydronandrolone (DHN) in the same fashion that testosterone is converted into dihydrotestosterone (DHT) via the 5a-reductase enzyme. While nandrolone is slightly more androgenic than testosterone, it is much less androgenic than DHT. And DHN has almost no androgenicity.

What this means is, in men who suffer from hair loss on TRT who do not want to use a 5a-reductase inhibitor (finasteride or duasteride), lowering testosterone and adding nandrolone can often be the trick to preventing hair loss.
