Testosterone Cypionate: Uses, Side Effects and Common Brands
Testosterone cypionate is the longest derivative of testosterone. The half-life of this substance is two weeks. This substance, by entering body, acts as a natural male hormone. The main disadvantage is its increased aromatization (conversion to estrogens), as a result of which the risk of the appearance of so-called “female traits” in men increases significantly, as well as the likelihood of excess water being retained in the body. This drug has a 100% anabolic effect, as well as 100% androgenic. There is also no toxic effect on liver. It has a high conversion into estrogen.
Testosterone Cypionate gained the greatest popularity among athletes in the United States not only because of its availability (unlike many similar products, its price is relatively low), but also because of its high anabolic effectiveness. The main purpose of it is to gain muscle mass and increase strength indicators. It goes on sale, as a rule, in the form of an oil solution for injection.

Properties and Effects
- Increases power indicators;
- Provides a significant increase in muscle mass. (However, due to the easy conversion into estrogen, about thirty percent of the weight is lost after completing the intake because it is a liquid);
- Stimulates the production of red blood cells, which contributes to an increase in the oxygen mass of the blood;
- Maintains a positive nitrogen balance;
- Supports spermatogenesis;
- Improves phosphorus metabolism.
Combination
Especially often, this drug is used in combination with drugs for gaining muscle weight. The optimal dose is one injection per week (possibly due to prolonged breakdown, less often) with a dosage of 250 to 500 mg. Novice athletes can use this drug not only in combinations, but also individually.
This drug is best combined with nandrolone decanoate. It is worth saying that in such a combination the dosage of each component is about 200 mg weekly. To reduce the effects of estrogen, a combo with Tamoxifen, which should be taken every day, up to 10 mg is used. In the process of therapy, Mesterolone is also recommended.
Side Effects
- Excess estrogen.
- Gynecomastia with seals and a small swelling around the nipples.
- Loss of hair on head.
- Water retention in the body and, as a consequence, swelling.
- Acne.
