Oxandrolone was approved for treating alcoholic hepatitis, Turner’s syndrome, and weight loss caused by HIV. In addition, the drug has shown positive results in treating anemia and hereditary angioedema and for preserving muscle mass in burns patients. Oxandronolne also has been used with good success for idiopathic muscle mass loss and osteoporosis. At low dose (5-10mg), Oxandrolone binds weakly to androgen receptors and therefore can be used by woman and does not cause virilisation.
Oxandrolone is an excellent compound for females and pre competition body builders requiring advanced skin conditioning. As a muscle building drug for men, its relatively useless – a far better option in that regard is either Tbol or Superdrol, which are considered to be ‘Anavar for men’. However, its worth noting the two particularly superb effects of Oxandrolone, first is the positive effects it has on the rejuvenation of the skin, wound healing, stretch mark reduction and burns treatment and the second its role in post cycle AAS therapy since it offers no aromatisation and is weak enough not interfere with the bodies testosterone recovery.
