Test Cyp vs. Nandrolone; Prostate trouble

[kx250rider]

Just curious on this... I had some Nandrolone 300 mg/ml (same as Deca, if I'm correct), which was going to expire soon, so I used it last week when I was out of T Cyp. I noticed that I have trouble getting my bladder all the way empty for the past few days. I also think I caught a mild flu bug, which could also explain swollen glands (incl. prostate), I guess. Also no morning wood this week

Anyone have this happen on Nandrolone? Normally I'm in great shape in those areas.

Thanks, Charles

Oh ya bro, have u never heard of 'deca dick'? I was always told to just run more test than deca to prevent this. I hope u have a good pct planned.

It's my limited understanding that the prostate responds to DHT which is converted from testosterone. If your prostate was responding negatively to the testosterone, it would have taken some time to release, covert to DHT and then inflame your prostate.

So my guess would be the cyp, not the nandralone deconate (deca). Two of the most popular prostate management drugs are Proscar and Avodart, both of which block the conversion of testosterone to DHT.

But before you go whole-hog on blocking DHT with a finesteride (Propecia/Proscar) or deutesteride (Avodart), I've read somewhere that DHT plays a role in determining muscle hardness, sex drive, etc. etc. So you don't want to completely nuke your DHT unless your prostate is in dire trouble.

Just my 2 cents -- HTH

Proveron is a good option for DHT conversion but it also causes prostate swelling, you need to run test with the deca even 200mg/wk is enough to keep the penor working. As far as the prostate go see your dr. Better to be safe than sorry!

Thanks for the input... It's going back to normal, and it's been a week and a half since the Nandrolone. The T hasn't ever done that to me, at least at the doses I'm on (300 mg 2x/week per Rx). I also had a mild flu bug, and my armpit glands swell up too when I get flu/colds sometimes. I think I agree that taking the Nandrolone as a swap for T, threw me out of whack for a couple weeks. I feel better that I'm not alone in having had the "labor strike" in the manhood department with this stuff.
