How come methyltestosterone hurts the liver and Andriol does not?
Andriol is an ester wrapped in castor oil. Therefore it is absorbed into the small intestine quickly, bypassing the liver on that all-important first pass. Q: Can women take Andriol? A: Yes, Andriol has light side effects and is therefore acceptable for women seeking an oral testosterone solution. Q: What size dose should I take? A: This is where we begin to see the differences in dose size, and the advantages of injectable testosterone over this oral version. A 40 mg capsule of Andriol will only contain about 25 mg of testosterone. Obviously, this isn’t much of a dose. In order to be most effective, you’d like the body to consume one of these caplets every 2 to 4 hours. This isn’t practical, but it’s the reality of using oral testosterone. It has to arrive via oil, in small doses, which are administered in a timely dosing pattern. Q: What kind of gains can I expect from Andriol? A: Andriol does deliver some serious muscle gains. They’re not quite on the same level as injectable testos
