does anavar make your blood thicker?

[sconoscuito]

everyone talks about how anavar messes with lipids so would that make your blood thicker by any chance?

why Im asking is that if I ever decide to use it, I had a blood clot in my shoulder a year ago and I dont want another one so just wanna make sure.

do you mean increase you blood pressure?

yes i can increase you blood pressure slightly. but not nearly as much as other AAS will.

as for the thickening of blood.... EPO does that.

 

[sconoscuito]

well I thought it raises your cholesterol which makes your blood thicker doesnt it?

When they say thicker blood, it comes from an increase in red blood cells. I don't know if anavar works that way. Dbol does.

hmm I also thought it was the white blood cells that make the blood thicker... I remember my doctor talking about all this when I got my blood clot, they made me take coumadin to get my blood thinner.

I think white blood cells increase when infections set in. I don't think a steady high WBC count would healthy.

chordz is right. increased RBC (increased hematocrit) is what makes blood thicker. erythropoetin is responisble for that. my understanding is that some AAS can stimulate erythropoetin release, and therefore would increase RBC. EQ is noted for this.

all AAS can make your hemo thicker

I think they used to use a-bombs to increase your 'crit also. As mentioned, they probably all do. I believe they will influence your albumin as well (supposedly lower it) which would make your blood thicker.
