Side effects
Like all anabolic steroids, winstrol also has some side effects. These effects are rare and most people tolerate them without a problem. The most common side effects include:
- jaundice
- hepatic necrosis- common
- liver cancers (rare)
- testicular atrophy
- decreased libido
- depression, insomnia, anger, mood changes
- nausea, vomiting, diarrhea
- gynecomastia
- deepening of voice in women
- hair loss
- hair growth in women
- fluid retention
- increased blood sugars
- decrease HDL cholesterol
While most of these changes reverse after stopping the drug, some of the virilizing effects may be irreversible. For women who do take this drug, a word of warning. The drug should be stopped at the first signs of virilization because some of the masculine features may not reverse even after the drug is stopped. Winstrol has also been associated with reports of extensive liver damage which can be life threatening. Therefore, it is highly recommended that anyone using anabolic steroids regularly has their liver function regularly monitored.
