Equipoise can also produce distinct androgenic side effects. lncidences of oily skin, acne, increased aggression and hair loss are likewise all possible with this compound, although will typically be related to the use of higher doses. Women in fact find this drug quite comfortable, virilization symptoms usually unseen when taken at low doses. Boldenone does reduce to a more potent androgen (dihydroboldenone) via the 5alpha reductase enzyme (which produces DHT from testosterone), however its affinity for this interaction in the human body is low to nonexistent We therefore cannot consider the reductase inhibitor Proscar to be of much use with Equipoise, as it would be blocking what is at best an insignificant path of metabolism for the steroid. And although Equipoise is relatively mild, it may still have a depressive effect on endogenous testosterone levels. A combination of HCG and Clomid/Nolvadex® may likewise be needed at the conclusion of each cycle to avoid a "crash", particularly when running long in duration.
Equipoise dosage
Although Boldenone (Equipoise) stays active for a much longer time, Equipoise is injected at least once per week by athletes. Equipoise is most commonly used at a dosage of 200-400mg (4-8 ml, 50mg version) per week for men, 50-75 mg per week for women. Should a 25mg Boldenone version be the only product available, the injection volume can become quite uncomfortable. The dosage of Boldenone schedule can be further divided, perhaps injections given every other day to reduce discomfort. One should also take caution to rotate injection sites regularly, so as to avoid irritation or infection. Should too large an oil volume be injected into one site, an abscess may form that requires surgical draining. To avoid such a problem, athletes will usually limit each injection to 3ml and reuse each site no more than once per week, preferably every other week. With Equipoise® this may require using not only the gluteus, but also the outer thighs for an injection site. Of course all problems associated with 25mg and 50mg dosed products are eliminated with the newer 100 mg and 200mg/mI versions of this steroid, which clearly give the user much more Boldenone dosage freedom and injection comfort.
