Side Effects

For those men who are suffering from low testosterone condition, encountering complications are quite rare as, in effect, all you are doing is replacing the testosterone that your body should be producing, but isn’t. The potential side effects of using Testosterone Decanoate are still a possibility, but if you keep to the specified dose guidelines you should be able to mitigate any risks.

Estrogenic side effects are possible with Testosterone Decanoate with the most common estrogenic side effect experienced being water retention. Testosterone can and does aromatize and convert to estrogen in the body. The use of an AI (Aromatase Inhibitor) is optional and can help reduce the amount of aromatization that takes place in the body.

Testosterone Decanoate has the potential to cause androgenic side effects. Some of the more common androgenic side effects include as hair loss, increase in body hair, and acne. Hair loss is a major cause for concern for many men, but If you don’t have MPB (*male pattern baldness) in your genetics, then there is no way that Testosterone Decanoate can cause hair loss or balding.

Testosterone Decanoate can have an effect on the good cholesterol or HDL, which may be reduced and the bad cholesterol, LDL, which may increase. There is also a risk that testosterone may thicken the blood by increasing the levels of hemoglobin and red blood cell numbers. That said, those who use Testosterone for therapeutic purposes and within the specified dosing guidelines should not suffer any major impact on their cholesterol.
