Testosterone Enanthate Half Life
1.\\\'Enanthate\\\' is Enanthoic acid, but once bound to Testosterone it is properly referred to in chemistry as an ester bond (or ester linkage). Enanthoic acid is bonded to the 17-beta hydroxyl group on the Testosterone structure. Esterified anabolic steroids are more fat soluble, and release slowly from the injection site.
2.Once Testosterone Enanthate enters the bloodstream, enzymes work to break the bond between the ester and the hormone, which takes a varying amount of time. The end result is that the ester is removed from the hormone by enzymes, and what is left is pure Testosterone that is free to do its work in the body.
This process of enzymes cleaving off the ester from the Testosterone molecule is what is responsible for the slower release rates.
Testosterone base with no ester half-life is 2-4hours.But the half-life of testosterone enanthate is extended to 10days.
Testosterone Enanthate dosage
In any case, the total dosing of Testosterone-Enanthate can vary tremendously between beginners and advanced users, but a beginner\\\'s dose will work for any man regardless of experience. For the purpose of performance enhancement, most will need a minimum of 500mg per week, with 1,000mg per week normally being the perfect dose for advanced supplementation. Doses that go above the 1,000mg per week mark severely open the door to possible aromatizing side-effects, and the additional gains will more than likely not outweigh this factor. Advanced performance enhancers who supplement with 1,000mg of Testosterone-Enanthate per week yet want more of a punch will always be better served adding in other anabolic steroids on top of their Testosterone-Enanthate.
Testosterone Enanthate Side Effect
Side effects such as water retention usually occur when using testosterone enanthate. Gyno, increased rate of hair growth, back acne, increased blood pressure, and aggressiveness, both in the gym and out, are possible when using enanthate. The liver is accustomed to processing testosterone, so liver toxicity is normally not a concern except at extremely high doses.
