NPP 150

VGL Fitness Nandrolone Phenylpropionate (NPP) 150 mg/ml is a short-ester nandrolone with a faster onset and shorter half-life, allowing for more stable blood levels when dosed correctly. Its anabolic activity supports lean muscle gain, recovery, and connective tissue tolerance, with a comparatively lower androgenic profile than testosterone.

Nandrolone Phenylpropionate (NPP)

• Drug Class: Anabolic-Androgenic Steroid (AAS)
• Type: Injectable
• Common Brand Names: NPP, Durabolin (phenylpropionate ester variants)
• Carrier Oil: MCT

Use (Clinical / Recreational):

Clinical:

• Historically used for muscle wasting and recovery-related conditions (nandrolone base compound)

Recreational:

• Used for lean mass gain, joint comfort, strength and improved recovery

Half-Life: ~3–4 days
Administration: Intramuscular injection, every other day (EOD) or 3x weekly (short ester, don’t get lazy)
Typical Recreational Dose: 200–400mg/week
Cycle Duration: 8–12 weeks – Shorter cycles are common due to faster onset and clearance compared to Deca

Primary Benefits:

• Quality lean muscle gains
• Noticeable improvement in joint comfort (individual dependent)
• Strength increases without excessive weight gain
• Faster recovery between training sessions
• Less water retention than Deca for most users

Common Side Effects:

• Acne and oily skin
• Reduced libido if not properly supported
• Possible prolactin-related issues in sensitive users
• Mild water retention
• Injection frequency fatigue (yes, it’s annoying)

Serious Risks:

• Suppresses natural testosterone production
• Prolactin elevation (can impact libido, mood, sexual function)
• Negative lipid changes (↓ HDL)
• Potential cardiovascular strain with prolonged or high dosing

Mitigation / Harm Reduction Tips:

• Always run with testosterone (non-negotiable)
• Keep doses sensible to reduce prolactin-related sides
• Monitor prolactin if libido or mood changes appear
• Regular bloodwork: lipids, hormones, liver, prolactin
• Injection hygiene matters due to higher pin frequency

Stacking Considerations:

• Commonly paired with Test E or Test C
• Often favoured over Deca when shorter cycles or faster recovery is desired
• Can be combined with mild orals (e.g. Anavar, Turinabol)
• Avoid stacking with multiple prolactin-elevating compounds unless experienced and monitored

PCT Needs:

Required unless on TRT

Begin:

~10–14 days after last injection (short ester clears faster than Deca)

Typical Protocol (capsule-friendly):

Option 1 (Standard):

• Nolvadex: 20mg daily for 6 weeks
• Clomid:
• Weeks 1–2: 100mg daily (2 × 50mg caps)
• Weeks 3–4: 50mg daily (1 cap)

Option 2 (Milder, lower sides):

• Nolvadex: 20mg daily for 6 weeks
• Clomid: 50mg daily for 4 weeks

Adjust duration if cycle exceeds 10–12 weeks or suppression markers remain poor on bloods.
