Var & my wife

[bblazer]

My wife is considering a trip to the dark side. She is 38, 6' 1" 155 lbs and 14% bf (DEXA scan). A former pro volleyball player she is no n00b in the gym, and probably puts is more time there than I do. Not BBing, but more "Body for Life" and pilates. A few years ago she had a hysterectomy and is on HRT that includes estrogen, test, and some progesterone. Her diet is not perfect, but significantly better than most Wisconsin wimmins.

Anyway, we have been doing some research and it looks like Var at 5mg/day for 7 weeks is the right option. She wants to lean out more, and develop more lean muscle and definition (her thighs are nearly as big as mine from all that volleyball).

One thing we don't see much of is info on PCT for women. Obviously there is little concern here to get natty test levels back to normal, and Var is even less of an issue in that regard. However, are there other PCT or even on cycle things that women should be concerned about. Obviously with the choice of Var, she is helping prevent virilization and other masculinizing effects. I haven't seen much in the literature to suggest it will play much if any havoc with her HRT, but I'm still not sold on that. She does take 200mcg Cytomel/day and we are aware Var will play with the testing of thyroid levels, but to what extent we haven't quite figured out yet.

If anyone could chime in here and fill in these last few gaps I would really appreciate it.

Thanks!

my understanding is there is no pct for women, its just men that need to do one

 

[SpyWizard]

no need for pct for a woman... she is supplementing with test that will still be there, the "production" of test will be suppressed, but it is already being supplemented..

At that weight/height is is very attractive, congrats.. 14%bf on a woman is very lean..

1-2 5 mg per day
3-8 10mg per day

Just make change to her eating style.. make sure that every time she eats she consumes some protein in that meal and in every meal..

also, no matter what she does, she will not get "big" on this steroid.. not unless she is eating 12K cals per day..

what she will get is some elevated BP (maybe) more strength, `some veins popping, reduced menstral flow (wait, didn't she have a..... never mined)

Slight enlarged clit.. (you lucky dog you)

Increased strength and muscle definition..

Hope that helps..

Good post, agree. The only thing i can say different is 5mg is a very low dose. I have trained numerous women who have ran var, everyone of them ended up with does around the 15mg ED range. That seemed to be the most effect dose.

It is best to start on lower dose and run it for three weeks to see how she responds and to make sure that it is var.

Would you like a copy of this thread in the women's section?

 

[bblazer]

Thanks for all the responses!

Tatyana, I think a copy in the wimmins section would be a good idea. You also bring up a good point about authenticity. On occasion I have heard of dbol (or something else) being sold as Var. As a woman what should my wife look out for if that has happened? Are we talking about growing a mustache like a Mexican bandit, or will things be more subtle?

bw1 - were the ones who ended up at the 15mg/ed range BBing? That seems to be on the high side of what we have read so far. What kind of results were they getting (if that is quantifiable).

Thanks again everyone!

I honestly know very little about wiminz cycles, just common sense. I would actually post on the wiminz board if I were you.
Cuz you sound like a pussy.......jk
You'll get more and better esponses I'd think.
