Anavar = Lethargic

ad

Hello eroiders,

I have recently run into an issue that I wanted to get some feedback on from the community. Has anyone experienced lethargy/tiredness on Anavar? And I’m not talking about 100mg/day, I’m on what I would consider a moderate dose of Anavar (40mgs/day - split 20am/20pwo) and I’m just so tired and sluggish during the day it’s affecting my work and my workouts.

I know when orals are processed through the liver it can cause stress and elevated values hence leading to less properly functioning liver Which will make you tired sometimes. I do take tudca which seems to help, but I really want to know if anyone else has this extreme lethargy with Anavar and what you do to combat it.

Any thoughts are appreciated!
Thanks,
Zanda

Nobody here mentioned this, but you need to supplement anavar with testosterone. Anavar shuts down your natural test production and has no androgenic effects on its own. Be sure you're doing TRT while on anavar.

Yet to try tudca but run N-A-C, Liv 52 and ALA.

I personally get lethargic and lack of appetite on all orals. Some worse then others. It usually starts right away, I always use 1000mg Tudca per day on orals, so I'm in the same boat as you.

Something also to consider is all Labs anavar is slightly different due to the RAW's they use - I have used some that has made me feel wired and energetic and some that has made me feel subdued and tired. Try a few different ones maybe but do get some bloods done to check on liver values.

Can you please tell me which brand of Anavar gave you the wired and energetic feel? And which to stay away from. Please PM me if the forum rules do not allow such discussion on open forum.

We both know there is a lot of fake anavar out there. It has a higher production cost which is why less scrupulous sources substituting anavar for other compounds. Makes me wonder if some of the versions you used were fake. Who freaking knows? I've seen it all when it comes to what UGLS will do to cut costs. I personally expect consistent reactions to compounds.

EVERYONE reacts and handles compounds differently. Only blood work will give you the real answer. I can run 50mg of anadrol, winny or dbol with no issues but on 20mg of Tbol I can’t eat. Everyone’s different bro!

I am directly the opposite , I can run Tbol up to 50mg no problem basically no sides atleast nothing I can't handle .

Dbol I just flat out can't run at any level, Anadrol I have to run lower than 50mg or I can't eat , but Winny I can run pretty high especially the Injectable.

Could be a liver issue, could be Covid, could be heat or allergies.
Bloodwork is the only way to know for sure.

Lol with no bloodwork it’s like finding a needle in a haystack.

Extremely lathargic?... how bout stop taking drugs, see a doctor, and proceed from there...

Yeah zanda I can put my two cents in here since VAR is my oral of choice I usually run as a cutter @ 60mg/day. I have not had any issues with lethargic sides as a matter of fact I get insomnia it I ingest too late in the day.

Remember in a cycle you are throwing your body into a rollercoaster where hormones are rapidly stepping up and down. Are you sure your E2 is in check throughout your cycle ?

As everyone mentioned orals can elevated liver levels and function. Which can cause lethargy.
Only why to tell for sure is to get bloods.

How long have you been running Var?

How is your appetite??

Maybe its not legit var. Var's raws are pricey so some give you another cheaper oral. Could be superdrol or adrol which are known to cause lethargy in most people.

9 reviews so far this year it’s hard to tell what might be going on... I recommend bloods every 3 months if you’re going to be blasting like that.

Basically any oral from Anavar to Superdrol can and will cause some lethargy.

Some people are just more susceptible to bad sides from orals to the point that they really cant do oral runs , and it undoubtedly has something to do with your liver . Likely your liver values were below normal before you started the run , or you have some hepatic issues in general.

Either way if possible get some bloods done.

You may be having some underlining health issues from extended usage of steroids. I am thinking possible liver issues since lethargy is the most common symptom people report with liver disease.. It is hard to say with so little information. Bloodwork is needed. Honestly I would get on some serious liver cleansing protocol ASAP and stop all steroid usage.

Depends what else you taking besides var too bud ? looking at your reviews this year seems like you been on cycle for sometime so could be many other factors man.

Good call bro see how the bloods look and go from there these long cycles and blasts can take a toll and catch up to you especially orals combined with other harsh injectables.

I felt sluggish on it but I don’t know if I can contribute it to the Anavar. We were working a lot of hours, I was using 6 IU of HGH. I don’t sleep that great and I got a 3 week respiratory illness during the portion of the cycle I was on it. I was running it at 50 split am pm. I thought it made me not that hungry as well, until I’d been on it 4 weeks, then my natural appetite returned. You could try a preworkout supp. No matter how lethargic I feel, that always gives me enough to get to the gym and through a workout.

If your liver is stressed that could sure make you lethargic. Good luck to you with your labs
