I have been studying this steroid called Deca-Durabolin , and what I discovered is both good and bad due to the side effects. I had known that it was an extremely anabolic, but I studied more about how it works. And its great for significantly boosting the manufacture of IGF-1 , which is a key for bone development as im sure must of u guys already know. So this will actually stimulate bone growth, so it can really raise your bone density and mass. That's precisely why it has been used medicinally for things like major osteoporosis.

The big problem, though, is the severe side effects. I mean serious, often permanent, side effects that you have to balance carefully, especially because I found this for non-medical reasons. For men, it's an almost certainty of shutting down your regular testosterone production, which can lead to infertility and impotence if you don’t believe me check the study .

I'd like to hear from anyone who has done further research on this. What are your thoughts on it if you think it’s worth it or have any ideas to mitigate the side effects.

it's not extremely anabolic it's slightly more anabolic than testosteron with minimal androgenic activity and it lacks the full bone protective effect that testosterone has to offer you have no reason to take
Deca-Durabolin when you can just take testosteron unless you're female bodybuilder + you'll actually end up in an estrogen deficient state because Deca-Durabolin only aromatizes into estrone E1 which is far weaker than estradiol E2 and since your going surpress your own testosteron production there won't be any testosteron to convert to estradiol wich is very problematic
eventually will cause bone demineralization
