A prohormone is a hardcore supplement that will help build muscle and help the body recover faster from exercise. These supplements are designer steroids that are taken orally and processed through the liver. Some of these products are stronger than others and have more side effects. These muscle builders come in two different forms wet and dry. Wet are normally used in bulking cycles and dry for cutting or leaning out. Wet cycles or "bulking cycles" normally produce more estrogen in the body so some athletes use a estrogen blocker with their cycle. Dry compounds or "cutting compound" can cause joint pain so using a joint support supplement maybe nesecary. Both dry and wet compounds should be taken with a good liver support supplement and a post cycle therapy supplement.
Prohormones are used mainly by athletes looking to increase size, strength, endurance, reduce recovery time or add lean body mass. They used for increasing muscle mass or reducing body fat levels. Prohormones are popular among bodybuilders and athletes since the effects include gains in muscular strength and hypertrophy. The main purpose of prohormones is to supplement or enhance the strength of hormones that are naturally in the body.
Prohormones are available on a variety of forms, including pills, capsules, liquid or even dermal patches. Dosages vary on the specific prohormone compound.
How long should my cycle length be?
Most people who use prohormones allow for 30 day cycles. 30 days is recommended. Some more experienced advanced users go for about 45 days. The reason that this time is allocated for this is that taking a prohorome is strenuous on the body and organs and as a result you can harm your body if not taken properly. The stress on the liver is to much for the body to handle if there is longterm continuous use with out breaks and post cycle. To combat the harshness it is advised to use On Cycle Support during the cycle, this will increase strength of the liver and remove toxins from the body during the cycle.
Who uses prohormones?
These muscle enhancing supplements are used by many different types of athletes. Most athletes use these products to increase speed strength and size. These products are used in all different sports but they are most common in bodybuilding. Women are also starting to use mild versions of prohormones such as epistane that have a lower androgen effect. It is not recommended that woman take high androgen supplements like superdrol or Halotest. Women should consult with their doctor befor using these types supplements.
Men use many different types of pros and have less chance of sides than women do. This doesn't mean men shouldn't use these products without caution. It's strongly recommended to study the compounds you are considering on using to learn the possible sides incorporated with the compound.
Prohormone Side Effects:
A pro can be a very dangerous supplement if abused. It is recommended that you never run a cycle longer than 8 weeks followed by a good pct (post cycle therapy). However some products like methylstenbolone are more toxic on the liver so shorter cycles are recommended. An average max cycle for these types of compounds is 4 weeks. Some side effects include liver damage, hair loss, gyno, acne, increased body hair and aggression. Most of these side effects are pretty rare though. Remember to never take more than recommended by the manufacturer. It's recommended that users running higher dose cycles to have blood work done during your cycle to check liver values.
How old should I be before taking prohormones?
We suggest that you wait until you are at least the age of 21 before taking prohormones. Prior to the age of 21, your body is still growing, and your body's natural production of testosterone is massively high.

Stacks:
Many advanced users stack several compounds in order to get maximum results from their cycle. Normally when your stacking these types of supplements its best to use single compounds instead of premixed stacks. The problem with using a premixed stack is you may get more of one compound than you want. Most of these products have sweet spots. Lets use h-drol for an example according to many of the forums out there 75mg is the sweet spot for this compound. Now lets say you have a halodrol product that is mixed with 10mg of Methylstenbolone. In order to get the proper amound of hdrol you will get more than the recommended dose of M-sten.
