Just a side note, Masteron is a very strong androgen, not really an anabolic.
Thanks for the clarification but your statement is not totally accurate although has merit. Masteron is a DHT, which is very androgenic. However, it does not form estrogen so the same androgenic side effects that would apply to test, D-bol and EQ do not necessarily apply to Masteron. Let's highlight some characteristics:
Androgenic Effects of Steroids:
Acne
Voice Deepening
Increased Body Hair
Increased Facial Hair
Anabolic Effects:
Virility, Vitality
Increased Strength
Increasing Muscle Size
Enhanced Muscle Recovery
Ok, now let's take a look at Masteron.
1) cannot form estrogen
2) reduction of estrogenic capacity makes it ill-suited for use as a mass-builder
3) increases strength while keeping body-fat the same or even lowering it
4) increase muscle hardness and density
5)
Side effects:

When discussing the side-effects, for once I'm going to go easy. This is because most people are well aware of the side-effects of DHT compounds and scared to death of them because androgenic side-effects caused by mass compounds like testosterone are largely attributed to the formation of DHT at the 5AR receptor enzyme. This may be a time to step back and look what sort of damage DHT can realistically do. An increase in acne is almost always noted, but if that doesn't seem to bother you with other steroids, then why with a short-acting androgen like drostanolone ? Hair loss seems to be the major concern, but if you've dealt with the use of steroids before or are educated to their effects you are aware that it merely speeds up a genetically pre-existing condition of male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia). This condition only occurs in 30% of men and can easily be detected by examining the men on your mother's side of the family. Androgenetic alopecia is passed on through the X chromosome and thus in matri-linear fashion (mothers side). The rule of thumb being quite simple : if you have it, don't touch this compound, if you don't, then you don't have to worry. Yes, it really can be that simple.
That only leaves benign prostate hypertrophy (enlarged prostate) and the related conditions such as prostate cancer. Recent evidence shows that estrogen too is a mediator in the development of this condition, which would lead us to draw the conclusion that a purely androgenic compound, lest taken with a highly aromatizing substance, has considerably less risk for aggravating such a condition than DHT formed by testosterone. These last two paragraphs to show that perhaps the side-effects of DHT are largely exaggerated. But that doesn't mean they just went away because I said so, extreme caution needs to be exercised by individuals at risk for hair loss and prostate problems. But to add one last bit of perspective, keep in mind that this compound is injected and spread across the body evenly. When DHT is formed by testosterone, its formed in androgen specific tissues, meaning its mostly concentrated in scalp, skin and prostate, which isn't the case here.
