Substance Overview and History

Nandrolone Decanoate is commonly known as Decа Durabolin. Has been in use since it was first introduced by Organon in 1960. It was formally approved as a prescription medication in 1962. The decanoate ester connected to nandrolone enables a slow release of the substance into the bloodstream after injection, with an effective duration of around three weeks. "Nandrolone shares similarities with testosterone. Is known for its enhanced capabilities and reduced androgenic impacts because it converts to dihydronandrolone a less effective androgen compared to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). This characteristic has led to its popularity in enhancing muscle mass and strength while minimizing androgenic and estrogenic side effects.
