Superdrol (Methasterone or Methyldrostanolone) is a potent DHT-derived oral steroid with extremely high anabolic activity and low androgenic properties. It is known for producing dramatic increases in muscle size, strength, and training intensity in a very short timeframe. Its popularity stems from the fact that it delivers dry, hard gains with minimal water retention.
Despite its effectiveness, Superdrol 15mg is also one of the more hepatotoxic oral compounds on the market. It requires proper cycle support and should only be used for short durations by experienced users. Superdrol does not aromatize into estrogen, but it may still cause estrogenic-like side effects due to other hormonal imbalances created during the cycle.

Androgenic effects – acne, oily skin, hair thinning

Half life & detectability
