Superdrol (Methasterone): A Tracking Guide for a Harsh Oral Steroid

Superdrol is a brand name for methasterone (methyldrostanolone), an oral 17-alpha-alkylated anabolic-androgenic steroid. It was briefly sold as a "prosupplement" before regulators moved it into controlled status. It is a potent muscle-building and strength compound, and it is also one of the more aggressively hepatotoxic orals people use.

This is an educational tracking guide, not medical advice and not a recommendation. Methasterone is a controlled anabolic steroid in many countries and is not approved for the uses discussed here. If you have already decided to use it, the goal here is to track honestly and reduce harm.

What it is

• A 17-alpha-alkylated oral steroid, a chemically modified relative of drostanolone
• Orally active because the 17aa modification resists liver breakdown, which is exactly what makes it liver-stressing
• Non-aromatizing, so it does not convert to estradiol

What it does

• Drives rapid gains in muscle and strength, often with a "dry" look because there is no aromatization
• Suppresses the body's own testosterone via the HPTA
• Strains the liver and pushes lipids in an unhealthy direction, often quickly

Typical protocol shape

• Described, not prescribed: users commonly report very short runs because of the liver burden
• Almost always paired with a testosterone base to avoid full shutdown symptoms, and followed by post-cycle therapy (PCT)
• Doses reported in the literature and community are deliberately not listed here

What to track daily

• Bodyweight and any rapid water shifts
• Blood pressure
• Appetite, which methasterone commonly blunts
• Any lethargy, back pumps, or dark urine, which can signal liver stress

What to track weekly

• Waist and progress photos
• Resting heart rate and blood pressure trend
• Subjective well-being and mood

Bloodwork worth doing

• Liver enzymes (ALT, AST) before, during, and after - this is the priority for any oral 17aa
• Full lipid panel, expecting HDL to drop sharply
• Haematocrit and haemoglobin
• Total and free testosterone to confirm suppression and recovery

Realistic expectations

• Scale weight can move fast, but a meaningful share is water and glycogen
• Strength gains are real but come alongside real physiological cost
• Suppression is significant, and recovery is not guaranteed to be quick

Common mistakes

• Running it long "because it is working"
• Stacking it with other orals, multiplying liver stress
• Skipping bloodwork, especially liver enzymes and lipids
• Drinking alcohol or using other hepatotoxic substances during a run

Safety notes

Methasterone is markedly hepatotoxic, harsh on lipids, and strongly suppressive. Cases of serious liver injury have been reported. It is a controlled substance and is not approved for muscle building. Anyone using it should keep runs short, avoid other liver-stressing agents, and monitor liver enzymes and lipids with real bloodwork, ideally under medical supervision.
