Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below Hi. I've been taking anavar for about 10 days now. I'm female. It's my first ever cycle. Started with 5mg split in two doses and now on 10mg split in two doses. My muscles are noticeably bigger but squishy. I've lost all definition and I feel like a whale. My ankles are swollen and sore. Is this normal or should I stop taking it? I'm on a strict diet for cutting but it's not curbing my appetite. I'm freaking ravenous all the time.
Should I stop taking my Anavar?

It could be two things...sounds like you're bloating big time! It could be that your var is actually something else, as it's often faked. Then you could expect the big appetite and bloating. The other thing is you're one of those women who reacts to var with bloating. It's not a given but we do see women on here with that issue.

Anavar takes a few weeks to establish in your body, could be your body reacting to the change in hormones. I've read from other forums that symptoms like this can subside after 14 or 15 days. There is also a chance as Caligirl said that it can be something else that got sold to you as anavar. It's up to you if you want to give it a few more days to see if your body normalizes. There is always a risk when buying non governed substances, and always a risk when starting a cycle of something that alters hormone levels. If it were my wife, I'd say give it a few more days and monitor her carefully since it's already 10 days in.
I'm wondering if you got some dbol. It's a pretty strong reaction. Especially the throat! Good call on stopping it because that's exactly what it feels like. I had a very similar experience with my first supposed var cycle, only it took a bit longer to see the sides. I'd give yourself a week or two but I'd think within a week, your body should have expelled the extra water. Var has a short half life so if it's var, it'll be out of your system within 8 hours.
Keep us posted. I'd like to hear how you make out. I'm glad you shared too. It's such a gamble and you just never know. I hope it clears quickly!
The only thing is her throat is sore and that's a huge red flag. If it were just bloating I'd probably ride it out too for a bit longer. It sure sounds like she got something else. I pushed the envelope on my first cycle of what I thought was var and my voice didn't recover. It's very slight and no one would really know but it did change. I can't sing like I used too (which maybe is a good thing [emoji12]).
Your point is spot on though. There's always a risk!

Nevermind, I didn't catch the throat thing. Good call with stopping.

That definitely sucks, I'm sorry to hear about that. I only use substances from supplement companies, not that it's a guarantee, just because I'm afraid that I'm going to get something fake or even tainted with something toxic. That drastically limits my options though. That's why when I recently got Mk 677(Ibutamoren) I got it off amazon, and it's made by Blackstone Labs.

Thank you very much. I've spent too many years reading articles, studies, and anecdotal info instead of having conversations. This is my first time ever in an online forum of any kind.
I'll have to start a new thread and chat more about cortisol etc...I'd love to pick your brain!

Sounds good! I'm still learning how to use this site. I don't know if I'm able to create threads since I'm not a paying member, I also don't know what is banned from discussion on the elitefitness forum, so if I do something wrong feel free to call me out. Haha

Most likely adrol or dbol. Both two are not meant for females by any means....if I was girl I would never ever run Primo, anavar or any other steroids girls could consider unless it was pharma grade and I knew it was proper pharma grade. To much risk running ugl's when you're a girl. Remember this is some guy in his house or make shift lab with no quality control, he can put whatever he wants in it and chuck a label on something that's the complete opposite. Be careful!!!!
Just wanted to post a quick update. So it's almost two weeks since my last dose and I 'm 99% back to normal. So glad I stopped the second I got the sides. It took about 3 days after stopping before my throat was normal again. And it took over a week to lose all the water I was holding. Defo gained a little fat while on it but I'll work that off - at least it's not a permanent side!

actually the pharm grad market is soo messed up with fakes i would feel safter with a UGL lab thats well known than ordering some human grade on someone. if you have a script and/or walking into pharmacy then yes i agree.

Glad to hear this! good you are feeling better. if you run something again just do alot of research on the lab before hand and if its not well known and you cant find much, move to another lab to research IMO
