Pharma Test 100: Ester-Free Pre-Workout Stimulant
Pharma Test 100 is similar to PHARMA TEST 100, but with a key difference in the carrier. Instead of a water suspension, we use grape seed oil, as in all our injectable products. This oil-based formula may slightly prolong the effect compared to the original PHARMA TEST 100.
History of Synthetic Testosterone
Synthetic testosterone was first synthesized in 1935 by German biochemist Adolf Butenandt and Swiss chemist Leopold Ruzicka, who both received a Nobel Prize for their groundbreaking work.
Role of Testosterone
Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone, crucial for the development of testicles and the prostate. It significantly impacts muscle tissue growth, bone density, and strength. Additionally, testosterone plays a vital role in overall health, well-being, libido, energy, immunity, and the prevention of osteoporosis. Maintaining higher testosterone levels in elderly men has been shown to improve parameters that reduce cardiovascular disease risk, such as increased lean body mass, decreased visceral fat mass, lower total cholesterol, and better glycemic control. Testosterone also influences behavior, mood, romantic relationships, and even career choices. Studies suggest that attention, memory, and spatial ability are key cognitive functions affected by testosterone. Low testosterone levels may be a risk factor for cognitive decline and dementia, making testosterone a key component in anti-aging therapies.
Testosterone in Bodybuilding
Testosterone is highly favored by athletes for its ability to promote significant increases in muscle mass and strength. As a naturally occurring hormone, it remains the most popular anabolic steroid and is typically used as the base of all cycles and stacks. Due to poor oral bioavailability, testosterone is almost always used as an injectable ester or suspension. Long esters release the active agent slowly into the blood, providing stable hormone levels over an extended period without creating peaks.
Conversion and Precautions
In men, approximately 5% of testosterone undergoes 5α-reduction to form the more potent androgen, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), also known as androstanolone. About 0.3% of testosterone is converted into estradiol (the primary female sex hormone) by the enzyme aromatase, expressed in the brain, liver, and adipose tissues. To avoid side effects, it is essential to perform blood work and take aromatase inhibitors (preferably anastrozole) during the cycle and SERMs (clomifene, toremifene) during post-cycle therapy (PCT).
