Nandrolone Phenylpropionate is an anabolic steroid that is very similar to the popular Nandrolone Decanoate compound. However, Nandrolone Phenylpropionate was the first Nandrolone
compound ever commercially sold. Nandrolone Phenylpropionate hit the
shelves in the 1950’s and was brought to the market by Organon under the
name Durabolin. Soon after Organon would release its Decanoate cousin under the name Deca Durabolin.
Nandrolone Phenylpropionate is a small ester base anabolic steroid
and is commonly referred to as NPP. This product has never been as
popular as the larger ester Decanoate version, in part due to
availability; however, in the modern era it has begun to see a
resurgence in both use and availability thanks in part due to
underground labs.
Nandrolone Phenylpropionate carries with it numerous therapeutic and
performance benefits. The Nandrolone hormone is the most commonly
prescribed anabolic steroid other than testosterone, but the Decanoate
version is the most commonly prescribed Nandrolone form. It is one of
the most well tolerated steroids in both performance and medical
settings, although possible side effects most certainly exist.
Nandrolone Phenylpropionate is a 19-nortestosterone (19-nor) anabolic
androgenic steroid. The 19-nor classification refers to a structural
change of the testosterone hormone in that the carbon atom has been
removed at the 19th position. This simple structural change
gives us Nandrolone, and by adding the short Phenylpropionate ester we
have Nandrolone Phenylpropionate.
Nandrolone Phenylpropionate is slightly more anabolic than
testosterone with a rating of 125 compared to testosterone’s rating of
100. It is also significantly less androgenic with a rating of 37
compared to testosterone’s rating of 100. The reduced androgenicity is
due to the Nandrolone hormone reducing to dihydronandrolone (DHN)
instead of dihydrotestosterone (DHT). This is one of the reasons
Nandrolone Phenylpropionate can be well tolerated at higher doses in
some men than higher doses of testosterone.
Nandrolone Phenylpropionate is also significantly less estrogenic
than testosterone. Both Nandrolone and testosterone aromatize, but
Nandrolone only does so at approximately 20% the rate of testosterone.
Important Note: Nandrolone Phenylpropionate carries a progestin
nature, and this will play into the side effects of this hormone.
Nandrolone Phenylpropionate carries many positive traits that are
similar to many anabolic steroids. However, this compound also carries
functional traits that will far outweigh what some steroidal hormones
can do. The positive functional traits of Nandrolone Phenylpropionate
include:
Important Note: It’s often said Nandrolone forces water into the
joints, thereby providing relief. This is not physically possible. It is
not water, it is the enhancement of collagen synthesis and bone mineral
content that provides relief.
Nandrolone Phenylpropionate is also well-suited for medical treatment
in a host of areas. Although Nandrolone Decanoate is more commonly
used, the Phenylpropionate version is still used with some regularity.
The use of Nandrolone Phenylpropionate has been proven useful in the
treatment of the following:
Despite a host of benefits and purposes of use, in the U.S.
Nandrolone is generally only prescribed for HIV, AIDS and anemia. Its
rate of success in other areas is high, but typically use for such areas
of medicine is found outside the U.S. Some U.S. physicians have begun
to prescribe it for anti-aging purposes, but this still represents a
very small fraction of the total prescriptions.
Through a thorough understanding of the functions and traits of
Nandrolone Phenylpropionate we already have a good understanding of the
positive effects of this steroid. However, to put it in terms that a
performance athlete can appreciate we can be a little more specific.
For the off-season athlete, a bulking cycle, Nandrolone
Phenylpropionate is one of the best steroids he can choose to enhance
muscularity and size. This is one of the best mass builders available
and for many bodybuilders is used in every bulking plan. Despite being a
faster acting Nandrolone form growth will not occur rapidly, but it
will be steady, even and significant. This is assuming you are eating
enough to grow. In order to grow you must consume more calories than you
burn. No steroid in the world can change this truth. But you will get
more out of your growth with a steroid like Nandrolone Phenylpropionate
if you are doing things properly. You should also notice you stay leaner
in your off-season due to the significant metabolic effects of the
hormone. And when it comes to recovery from strenuous training very few
things will beat Nandrolone Phenylpropionate.
Nandrolone Phenylpropionate can also be used for cutting cycles,
although it’s not commonly thought of as a cutting steroid. This steroid
will significantly protect lean muscle mass better than many steroids.
When we diet we must burn more calories than we consume. This is the
only way body fat can be lost. Unfortunately, this puts lean muscle
tissue at risk. When we diet some lean tissue will be lost, but
successful dieting limits this loss, and Nandrolone can provide this
protective measure. And once again the recovery benefits will be
tremendous, especially when recovery can already be incredibly difficult
when dieting due to the caloric deficit.
The final benefits for performance surround the athlete. Many
athletes use low doses of Nandrolone Phenylpropionate for the recovery
and joint relief benefits. These are not masking benefits like
painkillers provide but true relief. Some may also find strength
increases to a degree, although this isn’t a steroid well known for
tremendous strength increasing properties. Regardless, this is one of
the more common steroids used by athletes.
There are several possible side effects of Nandrolone
Phenylpropionate use, but it is also one of the more side effect
friendly. The key to managing and avoiding side effects is understanding
how they occur and proper use of the hormone. For most men serious side
effects should be completely avoidable. In order to understand the side
effects of Nandrolone Phenylpropionate we have broken them down into
their individual categories.
Estrogenic side effects of Nandrolone Phenylpropionate are possible.
Estrogenic side effects of Nandrolone Phenylpropionate include gynecomastia,
water retention and high blood pressure caused by severe water
retention. These side effects can be avoided by the use of an Aromatase
Inhibitor (AI) such as Anastrozole (Arimidex).
There are possible androgenic side effects of Nandrolone
Phenylpropionate, but they are not extremely likely in men. Hair loss in
men predisposed to male pattern baldness is possible as is acne in
sensitive men. However, when it comes to such effects this is one of the
most well tolerated steroids of all. Genetic predispositions will play
the largest role.
Nandrolone Phenylpropionate can have a negative impact on HDL
cholesterol (good cholesterol) and it can be somewhat more significant
than testosterone. This negative effect may be exasperated by the use of
an AI.
The use of Nandrolone Phenylpropionate will suppress natural
testosterone production. As with all Nandrolone compounds, one injection
will suppress nearly if not all your natural testosterone production.
Your genetics will not prevent this and it is something that’s
completely unavoidable with use. Because of this fact, it is imperative
that all men who use this steroid do so in conjunction with some form of
exogenous testosterone. This will prevent the individual from falling
into a low testosterone condition, which comes with a host of very
undesirable symptoms.
Nandrolone Phenylpropionate is not toxic to the liver.
In a medical setting standard male Nandrolone Phenylpropionate doses
will normally fall in the 50-100mg per week range. For female use,
although not commonly prescribed if prescribed it will normally be the
50mg per week range. In almost all medical settings the Decanoate
version is what will be prescribed.
For the athlete or bodybuilder doses can vary greatly. 100mg per week
will provide significant therapeutic advantage with 200mg per week
being more common as this will ensure significantly improved recovery.
In most performance circles 300-400mg per week will be the common dosing
range, and this is a perfect range for building or preserving muscle
tissue. Some will use more, but this will increase the risk of side
effects.
Regardless of the dose use the total dose is normally split into
three equal injections per week or planned out on an every other day
basis for optimal results. 8-12 weeks is the normal period of use for
most athletes. The exception is female athletes who may use the steroid
for 4-6 weeks and normally at a dose no more than 50mg per week if
virilization is to be avoided.

Nandrolone Phenylpropionate Functions & Traits
Effects of Nandrolone Phenylpropionate
Side Effects of Nandrolone Phenylpropionate
[1] Estrogenic:
The reason for estrogenic side effects is due to the Nandrolone hormone
aromatizing. Aromatization refers to the conversion of testosterone to
estrogen. However, the rate of aromatization with this hormone isn’t
high, but high enough to cause issues in some men. It is also a
progestin, and progesterone can activate the mammary tissue and promote
gynecomastia in very sensitive men. Estrogenic or progesterone based,
AI’s will provide the needed protection.
[2] Androgenic:
Important Note: The use of a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor will not reduce
the androgenicity of Nandrolone; in fact, it will increase it and
should be avoided.
Although not extremely androgenic the Nandrolone hormone can promote
virilization symptoms in women. Virilization symptoms may include body
hair growth, a deepening of the vocal chords and clitoral enlargement.
Some women can use low doses without issue, but if symptoms occur use
should be discontinued immediately. If discontinued at the onset of
symptoms they will fade away. If symptoms are ignored and use continues
they may become irreversible.
[3] Cardiovascular:
It is more than possible to use Nandrolone Phenylpropionate without
cholesterol issues or cardiovascular incident, but a healthy lifestyle
is imperative. Regular cardiovascular activity is important as is a
cholesterol friendly lifestyle.
[4] Testosterone:
Once the use of Nandrolone Phenylpropionate has been discontinued and
all anabolic steroids have cleared the body, natural testosterone
production will begin again. However, it will not occur overnight and
will come slowly. Post Cycle Therapy (PCT) is recommended. This will
help stimulate the production of natural testosterone and increase the
odds of a successful recovery. PCT will not complete recovery, it will
still take several months post PCT, but it will give you a better start.
Important Note: Natural recovery assumes no damage was done to the
Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Testicular-Axis (HPTA) during use and that no
prior low testosterone condition existed.
[5] Hepatotoxicity:
