Testosterone + deca-durabolin (nandrolone) is a common combo, and not just in bodybuilding. More recently NPP (nandrolone phenylpropionate) is being used, and I will include it in this video as well. Many men use test-deca to bulk, and also for its pain relief effects in joints. But it has well-known sexual side effects aka “deca dick,” as well as side effects on blood pressure, heart health, the prostate, and fertility. In this video I cover why men should avoid test-deca, and harm reduction should they choose to use it despite the risks. If you are considering using test-deca or know someone who is, please watch this video!
