…rafficking punishment. As for Mr. Petzke, however, he is getting off light compared to some of the other convictions that have come out of this case. According to federal prosecutors, as well as US District Judge Nathaniel Gorton (the man that passed down the sentence for Mr. Petzke), Petzke was the “money man” as well as a general “gopher” for the underground laboratory at Onyx Pharmaceuticals. Petzke had a number of different responsibilities as…

Cytomel (T3) is also commonly combined with other fat loss agents in order to increase its overall effect, as it does work synergistically with other fat loss agents.

It is in fact a strong indication that the hormone is indeed stimulating the pituitary gland, and is a side effect indicative…
…decreased. LH and FSH are the two important gonadotropins that signal the testes to begin production of Testosterone, while SHBG is a protein that binds to androgens and renders them inactive (in much the same way aromatase inhibitors will bind to the aromatase enzyme and render it inactive). The same study had determined that Letrozole was so effective at Estrogen reduction in men that the test subject’s Estrogen levels were in fact undetectable…
…at HCG will increase circulating blood plasma levels of androgens, notably Testosterone, and subsequently Dihydrotestosterone. This is a naturally expected and desired effect of HCG use. Androgenic side effects include: increased sebum secretion (oily skin), increased bouts of acne (linked to increased sebum secretion), bodily and facial hair growth, benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH), and the increased risk of triggering Male Pattern Baldness (MP…

In this study, LH (Luteinizing Hormone) and FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone) had also increased, which are the two important gonadotropins that signal the testes to begin production of Testosterone. One can easily conclude, based on the data provided, that Arimidex should be an effective addition to the necessary increases in T…

Dynabol offers protective qualities to help preserve lean muscle mass and this is especially important during times of fasting and calorie restricted diet.

The effects of Prolactin on gynecomastia as the result of Trenbolone use often manifests itself in the form of nipple lactation (fluid leaking from the nipples, especially when squeezed or pressed). Increases in Prolactin levels in men also lead to the issue of erectile dysfunction and anorgasmia (the inability to achieve orgasm). There are sev…

Because of the inability to combat water retention and bloating with the use of aromatase inhibitors, there is essentially no defense against the excess water weight and bloating issue aside from adjustments in diet (and even dietary adjustments are limited in their resul…

He claims that after the ordeal, a friend even approached him asking whether or not he had been issued a sample, to which he replied…

The problem seems to be intermittent across the community, and until further research can be conducted that simulate/mimic the exact conditions under which anabolic steroid users use Progestins and experience Prolactin-related side effects, we will never know for sure.
