View Full Version : Epistane
This drug seems to behave similarly to nolvadex.
Anyone have good feedback on this drug for PCT, or just general use on its own?

i got nothing for ya......just a bunch of threads from bb.com with some clowns pretending to be organic chem masters......

epistane is a prohormone. Not used for PCT at all...Thats like running anavar during pct. Epistane is potent shit to I put on 8 pounds in 6 weeks running epistane alone.

epistane was my first love. did two 4 weeks cycles of it and loved every minute of it. nothing but lean mass and zero side effects. but yeah not used for pct it's a prohormone. some people claim to have used it to reduce gyno because of it's "serm" like properties but i think it's all hocus pocus.

on it now, definitely not a pct drug... its touted as the most mild pro hormone available.

News Flash: It's a STEROID. Stop saying pro hormone... there are like two pro hormones currently on the market. And now with the bb.com raid, 99% of the remaining PRO HORMONES will be obsolete.
A few smaller online merchants sell them but that's it. No pro hormones. Designer STEROIDS - yes. Big difference. Nevertheless, it should not be used during PCT. It's a nice designer steroid though. I like it better than Anavar and D-Bol. Stock up while you can.

tomato tomatto... whats the difference? its one thing and is converted in the liver into another... steroids are just plain ol hormones, modified or not but they don't go into the liver and convert into another hormone, so i repeat: pro hormone.
is PH not another word for "designer steroid" anyway?

No. It's a steroid and that is different from a pro hormone. That's why I get touchy about it. You wouldn't compare the likes of cholesterol to a full on anabolic steroid, would you?

My apologies for trying to clear up some misinformation. I guess that's also frowned upon here. Seems like nothing is encouraged but idiocy and flaming. I came to this forum because I heard it wasn't shit... maybe I heard wrong.
Pardon my retarded small balls then, please. My enormous ego prevented me from knowing Epistane did not convert in the liver, hence why it's considered a steroid and not a prohormone.

Five people in this thread have already commented on it, including me.
Yes it's cheap, and yes it works. It's mild and effective. I'm actually really liking it, and will probably stock up before it disappears. It's nice to use for a little boost.. once a year or so between cycles. Great to have right now too during my diet.

I've been cranky as **** today and shouldn't have had a meltdown. It just struck a nerve. Sorry man.
Time to smoke a joint and spend time with my woman to counteract this tren. I've been off for a year and just started banging back some good dosed androgens (test prop, tren ace and drostan. prop). In any event, Epistane is actually one of the better legal drugs out there right now. I tolerated it very well and for the low sides and low price, I'd say it's nothing to laugh at.
Some people still think these are fake steroids or pro hormones and brush them off. But conventional oral steroids can get old. Lots of the good ones are pretty toxic are convert to potent estrogens so a mildly anti estrogenic steroid like Epistane isn't as bad as people would think.
At the very least, it's better than most stuff out there for the price point. I scooped up a dozen bottles of it for $20 USD when there was a big online sale. Gave it all away to friends though because I can't tolerate orals well.
kloan
27-09-2009, 02:55 AM
ah yes tren... i too will know thy self in due time.
anyway, no worries bro i dont hold a grudge... we all have our moments. i agree epistane is probably one of the best orals out there. the fact that its so mild really keeps my doubts at bay (re: sides).. though that could very well be a false sense of security considering its still relatively new, and hasn't gone through tests of any sort to determine potential long term effects.
however, id still like to stock up. $20 is crazy cheap... i wish id seen that sale.

Epistane/Havoc/Hemaguno
Innovators: IBE, RPN, Spectra Force
Nomenclature: 2a-3a-epithio-17a-methyl-5a-androstan-17b-ol
Pill Size: 10mg or 12.5mg depending on what brand you use
Dosages: 20-50mg
Side Effects: Milder on liver and lipid levels than other methyls. Known to cause lower back and calf pumps.
Reputation: There has had some spectroscopy and compound identification issues with these products, but from personal experience with it, is still a solid product. Many users have taken this compound as a solo run for gynecomastia reduction due to it's SERM-like and anti-aromatase properties. It is also a popular compound for use with the 'pulse method' of taking orals. Users can expect to see significant gains in both strength and mass.
I have used it twice and it was amazing stuff.

Everyday for 4 weeks. Taper it up run 20mg/30/40/40 and you will get exactly 4 weeks out of the bottle. Watch out for back pumps in the 4th weeks. Also split up your doses throughout the day. Half life is only six hours.

I believe the pulse method is used to limit being shut down. I have a friend that does it this way and for him it works. For one whom is on trt it just doesn't matter. So dosing ED would yield more gains. Tell you one thing if I were to do Superdrol I would limit it to workout days only.

IMHO the pulse method is useless. You want to be growing on your days off too. Shutdown is very minimal even ED. You won't even notice you came off minus the faster muscle growth.

Although I wouldn`t pulse it, I had a friend who pulesd M1T and got really good results. We noticed the change on him before he even told us what he was doing. BUT, this guy is a genetic freak... Eats chips almost everyday and drinks alot of pepsi and considers st huberts a decent meal!
St Huberts is delicious man! Better than Swiss Chalet I think.

Most are selling the black and green bottle one. Havoc I think its called? Is that the one you guys used?

The black and green one is the original from IBE. The RPN Havoc comes in two varieties of bottles... ones black with yellow and red, and the other is a clear bottle with yellow and red.
The retailers you found, are they selling it at the sale price? If so, PM me. :)
its ranging anywhere from $25 - $45 online at a few U.S. sites.

Its the same product even across all clones. There is just different ways of listing the chemical structure name.
example Epistane/Havoc list
----2a,3a-epithio17a methyl-17b-hydroxy-5a-androstane
----2a,3a-epithio-17a-methyl-5a-androstan-17b-ol
Same thing...both add up to Epitiostanol
There has been no change in the ingredients since its intro...just the naming of the product....and there are several clones listing the same thing....E-stane,epidrol,havoc,epistane.
And please have good PCT if/when you use it.

Not that i haven't found success in finding it, its if it really is available. Supplement suppliers have dead links or no stock. As for Ebay ... just not into paying the exorbitant price of shipping and the product of the two sellers who do have it.
Also after some reading it looks as if PrimaForce, once RPN, Havoc is the product to have. IBE is underdosed. Who's to say now how the product is.
Any event hope all who are using it have great results.
Its the same product even across all clones. There is just different ways of listing the chemical structure name.

Only reason I ask is because my bootle say on it

Servings per Container: 90

2,3a-Epithio-17a-methyletioallo cholan-17b-ol 10 mg

Same shit, different pile. Some providers will use different nomenclature but that's known to happen with pro hormones and designer steroids.
It's all "Epistane". I highly doubt any of it's underdosed too. It's cheap as hell and it's all being sourced by the same dirty factories in China. There have been a few assays to show that there were different peaks with a few initial batches of someone's product (I think it WAS IBE's product after all) but in any event... we're talking about micrograms. This stuff's cheap enough that if you're missing a couple of mgs from a bottle, you really have nothing to be too concerned about. Just go with a more reputable company until it's completely pulled off the internet stores.

Its not the best option, but its better than some oral only cycles.. i would still tell ya test e is THE best first cycle. I ran a oral only as a first cycle (m1t)... got gains no doubt, but i wish i woulda started with pinning test e at 500mgs a week.

Horrible idea...thats running back to back orals with no break. If you value your liver then dont do the above. Epi is still hepatotoxic the above would give you no time to get your liver values in check. Plus the your lipid profile would be way out of whack...and your natty test would be very very suppressed.
The typical and safe rule in the PH/DS world is:
time on + pct = time betteween cycles.....so 4 weeks epi...plus 4 weeks pct = 8 weeks till your next cycle
Play it safe dude and read up.

If you`re using nolva for pct and plan on using it for 4 weeks or something in that range, I wouldn`t worry about it. I`d even be willing to bet the pro hormones are more harsh on the body than the nolva...

Azza, you should start your own thread in the supplements section.
If I am not mistaken you are talking about
pre workout supplements designed to increase energy and pump. They are essentially nitric oxide/energy supplements and you would not need to take any cycle support nor post cycle support for these . Also, you are unlikely to see any meaningful results from these products and your money would be much better spent on food.
As far as protein goes, tons of the sponsors above sell protein buy the tub. Check out the supplements section for more on this.
Finally, I strongly discourage the use of Epistane at this time, until you gain some experience and do a ton of reading. Unlike the supplements you listed, Epistane is essentially a legal steroid (in the US).

I used it for my first cycle and it made the water weight come on sooner than the test enth would alone. Now I'd rather just frontload with some suspension along with the test, that way I feel on cycle as soon as I start my cycle.
Decent oral, low toxicity, doesn't aromatize, very cheap.. but it's nothing special.
