Depo tetosterone is the most popular and most used testosterone. Cypionate, like Enanthate (another form of testosterone), is an oil-dissolved injectable form of testosterone with strong androgenic and anabolic effects. It aromatizes quite easily which means that the conversion rate to estrogen, similar to Enanthate's, is relatively high. Several athletes are of the opinion that Cypionate stores more water in the body than enanthate does. The muscle buildup during the application along with the inevitable loss of strength and muscle mass after discontinuing use of one product, are the same with the other. Testosterone Cypionate can be combined with many steroids and thus making it an excellent mass steroid.
This oil based injectable form of testosterone can cause a marked disturbance in the body's endogenous production of testosterone if not carefully monitored and cycled. Athletes claim that this drug produces dramatic size and strength increases, yet some studies disprove any strength gain. It can be stacked with a number of different steroids to yield greater results. Cypionate is produced domestically under the brand name Depo-Testosterone and other manufacturers produce it under generic names.
