Time off for women

Like title says, how long should women take off between cycles? My girlfriend did a 4 week var cycle at 5mg ed and really enjoyed it. She would like to run it again, but I can’t seem to find anything on this topic.
 
Assumably like a guy she has health markers possibly impacted by PED use, which will ideally require time off to recover etc.
 
Depends on how serious she is, competing, etc.

Alex Kikel recommends 4-6 weeks on and at least 6 weeks off for women.

My wife always takes at least 4 weeks off. We have found doing things like 12 weeks is totally unnecessary and a great way to go backwards in progress. So we stick to 4-8 weeks. Her level of muscle is decidedly advanced.

Thanks Hyde, I figured blood markers would have to recover but wasn’t sure if there were any other factors.
I told her 3 months to be safe, but sounds like your wife has had a good experience with 4-8 weeks so 8 weeks sounds good.
What does she typically run?

That goes back to the context of her needs, my first point. My wife is a professional strongwoman. Understand that some people have zero qualms doing whatever will make them strongest, regardless of longterm consequences.

Typically, Var ranging from 10-20mg. Maybe with some Rad or LGD here and there, or 10mg Superdrol instead ranging from 4-7 days/wk for 3-4 weeks before a contest where she can afford to be heavier. In between blasts lately, we’ve been running 20 mcg as an anabolic & metabolic aid on those 4-6 weeks off blast. 12.5mg Anadrol treated her incredibly well.

I would be looking at things like Osta and Var at 5-10mg for muscle growth, LGD at 10-20mg PER WEEK spaced out. For strength & cutting, Var and Rad are better options.

Anadrol and Superdrol are the best for both, but the most intense on that list. My wife used for 6 years before trying those.

Remember you can lower total drug exposure if you can’t get smaller dosages by limiting doses to acute preWO use. So if you can’t get smaller than 10mg caps of Var, and therefore can’t split them, you can still get great results by dosing say 4x a week to limit weekly dose to 40mg total. That’s very close to 5mg daily (35mg). Not as ideal, but it absolutely works fine. Better than just taking more gear for the sake of it.

Oh wow, yeah she doesn't compete so probably sticking to var, maybe have her try osta next. How long would you recommend to run osta? I believe she did 5 weeks of var, I had said 4 earlier, for her first cycle at 5mg.

Right, that's a good point. I had given her some of my script var. They were 10mg pills that I cut in half for her, but my insurance nipped that script recently.

I would keep all runs for the casual user at 4-6 weeks on, with at least 6 weeks off. And if you start getting sides you don’t like, stop immediately. If the voice is scratching, it’s deepening. Lower voice is one of the very first changes, and if it happens it’s basically forever. Most all other changes besides hairloss & growth will largely revert over time whenever she finally completely stops steroids. So clit & jaw bone may become permanently enlarged, but only a fraction of what they could swell to on the blast. Boobs tend to fill back out some. Hair growth will slow back down, but if there are new follicle locations those will still be permanent.

Word of advice: if you aren’t getting it from your script, always Roidtest your Var. For $30 you can be sure she isn’t about to take Dbol or Winstrol. If they are lying about the compound you also have zero reason to assume the dose is correct, so it could be big virilizing doses of those as well.

If you try SARMs, always spend more to buy from the most reputable company you can, since they don’t make test kits for those that I’m aware of. They’re more of a gamble, in that regard.

Copy that. Appreciate the advice. Will definitely do a roidtest if going ugl.

Would go MA or Supreme for sarms.

I would not want my chick to lose her hair. I think T var would be great for women, mild on side and mild on hair

Are you referring to Trenavar/Trendione? Because if so that’s literally a direct prohormone to Tren base, one of the worst possible compounds if virilization is a serious concern. Many other compounds would be used before considering Tren for a woman.

I believe hair loss/growth is a risk regardless. Both compounds are mild.

Yes, it will be with everything because women, like all humans, respond to different compounds uniquely with effects/side effects. You are always watching out for negative sides to consider. Even if you get along great with Var in one cycle and Rad in another, that’s not a guarantee that a combination won’t be a problem.
