Bolden 300

The activity of boldenone is mainly anabolic, with a low androgenic potency. Boldenone has a long undecylenate ester attached to the parent steroid, which causes it to have a very long half-life (it can show up on steroid tests for up to 1.5 years).

Boldenone encourages the increase in nitrogen retention, protein synthesis, increases appetite and stimulates the release of erythropoietin in the kidneys. This drug is commonly used illegally within bodybuilding as a doping drug.

When used to assist in bodybuilding, it is usually taken as a part of a steroid stack which means it is combined with other anabolic steroids, most commonly a potent androgen like testosterone as the ‘base’ of the stack.

Although commonly compared to nandrolone, boldenone lacks progesterone receptor interaction and all the associated progestinic side effects. Boldenone can, however, produce mild androgenic side effects. Oily skin, acne, increased aggression and hair loss are all possible with this compound but rare.

Boldenone does reduce to a more potent androgen dihydroboldenone via the 5-alpha-reductase enzyme analogous to the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), however its affinity for this interaction in the human body is low to nonexistent. Suppression of the HPTA, water retention, possible increase in acne and possible conversion to estrogen, high blood pressure are all side effects associated with Boldenone.

Boldenone is also known to cause anxiety and flu like symptoms which manifest themselves most acutely in short ester versions like: acetate, and propionate (almost unusable), but which are also present in the enanthate, cypionate, and undecyclenate forms.
