Effects
- Muscle hardness & definition: Highly valued for a dry, 'hard,' defined look because it does not aromatize and causes little water retention.[7][4]
- Lean-mass preservation (cutting): Commonly used in cutting cycles to help preserve muscle while losing fat; weak as a standalone mass-builder.[2][8]
- Anti-estrogen activity: Has mild anti-aromatase / anti-estrogen properties, which is why estrogen-related side effects are uncommon with it.[4]
- Moderate anabolic effect: Moderate anabolic and mild-to-moderate androgenic activity versus testosterone; not a potent bulking agent.[8][3]

What it is
Drostanolone enanthate (the enanthate-ester form of drostanolone, the parent of "Masteron") is an injectable anabolic-androgenic steroid (AAS) derived from dihydrotestosterone (DHT).[1][2] It was originally a breast-cancer medicine and is now used non-medically, mainly in cutting/"hardening" cycles to preserve muscle and improve definition.[1][3][4]
How it works
Like other AAS, drostanolone is an agonist of the androgen receptor (AR), switching on genetic changes that increase protein synthesis (anabolism) and reduce muscle breakdown.[2] As a DHT derivative it is not a substrate for aromatase, so it cannot convert to estrogen and produces no estrogenic water retention or gynecomastia.[1][2] The enanthate ester does not change these effects — it simply slows release from the injection depot, extending the half-life so injections can be less frequent.[5][6]
Risks & side effects
Most important: The biggest concern is cardiovascular: like all AAS, drostanolone suppresses HDL ("good") cholesterol and can raise LDL, producing an atherogenic lipid profile that accelerates heart-disease risk — studies report HDL falling by 30–70% during a cycle.[9][10] It also shuts down natural testosterone production, so post-cycle recovery planning is needed.[11]
Common
Serious
- Atherogenic lipid profile accelerating coronary artery disease, heart attack and stroke risk over time.[9][13]
- Virilization in women — deepened voice, clitoral enlargement, facial hair — which can be irreversible.[11][14]
- Premature cardiovascular disease and prostate enlargement reported with chronic androgen excess.[14]
Safety & harm reduction
Dosage context
Commonly-reported (non-medical, not a prescription) figures for the enanthate version are roughly 400–600 mg per week, injected once or twice weekly, typically within an 8–12 week cycle.[11][15] These are forum/coach-level figures, not clinical guidance; sources disagree on exact half-life (cited anywhere from ~2 to ~10 days), so treat all numbers as approximate and be conservative.[11][16][3]
