Default Women and Winny

How do you gal's feel about taking winny?
What dose should a first time user take?
Has anyone had any sides from using it?
Any info would be great!

If your using tabs, I'd definitely start low. I'd start with 1/2 tab or 2.5mg a day and then up it to 5mg. I'm not a big fan of winny for women but most do well on 5mg a day. I've known women that have used 10 and 15mg a day. And had great results. I'd be a little worried about the side effects though. Unwanted hair growth, deeping of the voice are common sides.

I am not even going to go into details..but there are way better opnions out there...winny should ONLY BE USED AS A LAST RESORT.there are alot of nasty sides...some of which you have forever.

Hi Rose,
I was asking this same question a few months ago. Like the gals said, everyone tolerates things differently... but I'll tell you my experiences so far with oral Winny.

I'm currently 9 weeks out from a show (figure) and I'm using Winstrol for muscle preservation while on my diet and high cardio regimen. Hopefully this will work as I can't afford to lose any muscle. Every time I've dieted for a show, I come in looking "skinny" YUCK!

This is my first time using AAS, I've been training natural for the last 9 years. I've been using 10 mg daily, 5 days a week for the last 3 weeks. My strength went up and I'm much harder. I haven't had any water retention yet. I drink about 1 1/2 gal of water a day and my bodyfat is pretty low. I'm not sure if these 2 things have any impact on water retention or not?

I use it on my training days and I've just recently split the dose in 1/2 (one 5mg in the am and one in the pm). Next week I'm going to try taking 5mg on my days off as well and see what happens. If my voice goes hoarse or gets cracky I'm going to back down.

I did start to get small acne bumps on my face after the first week. Another mod told me to try B-5 to prevent it, and it has been working - the bumps are very rare now.

I'm by no means an expert, just wanted to give you my experiences. Using AAS isn't to be taken lightly. I thought and researched long and hard before making my decision. Like it was said before, some of the sides are life-long. Weigh your options and make sure you are doing it for the right reasons.

One side note: If I could get Anavar, I'd switch over in a second. Everything I've read so far seems to indicate it has the lowest sides of all AAS? Hope this helps...

Keili

i started taking winny about 2 1/2 weeks ago....i don't know a great deal about it.....but my husband has researched AAS for many years....he put me on it....i take a low amount but have experienced some side-effects already....nothing serious....but i feel i should still be cautious....because my husband not being a woman can not know everyway it can effect a woman....when i started taking it i had just come off my menstral cycle and a week later i had another one.....never had that happened before.....so i myself have been curious of all the possible side-effects for a woman.....i too would appreciate any info.....thanks

I personally am not a fan of winny. I believe it causes to many side effects in a woman. If you chose to take AAS then try EQ. I have done 4 cycles of it, ranging from a 12 week to a 26 week cycle of it. In very low dosages. I have had some side effects, but not to the extreme of what I have seen with friends of mine on winny. Good Luck.

i am not a fan of winny or EQ.. i think its best to stay with Var and primo.. winny and eq both have sides that can be permanent.. if i had to do it over again.. i won't have been cheap and i would have done VAR.. now i get the "do you have a cold?" cause my voice is now lower.. you read about the sides and you never think they will happen to you... hello.. they will.. and i was only doing 15mg a day tabs of winny.. both cycles.. and had the deepen of the voice and the acne..
