The Dianabol and Turinbol cycle is one of the most popular steroid combinations used by bodybuilders to achieve rapid muscle growth and strength gains. This plan outlines a 12‑week protocol that balances the anabolic effects of both compounds while minimizing side‑effects through strategic dosing, timing, and post‑cycle care.
Week 1–2
Dianabol: 10 mg per day (morning).
Turinbol: 15 mg per day (evening).
Rationale: The initial lower dose allows the body to acclimate, reduces estrogenic conversion of Dianabol and helps prevent early liver stress.
Week 3–6
Dianabol: Increase to 20 mg per day.
Turinbol: Maintain 15 mg per day.
Rationale: By week 3 the body’s aromatase activity has adapted, enabling a safe increase in Dianabol without significant estrogen rise.
Week 7–10
Dianabol: Continue at 20 mg per day.
Turinbol: Increase to 30 mg per day.
Rationale: A gradual rise in Turinol allows for progressive anabolic stimulation while monitoring liver enzymes and hormone levels.
Week 11–12 (Tapering)
Turinbol: Reduce to 15 mg per day, then discontinue.
Dianabol: Gradually reduce dosage over two weeks.
Monitoring Schedule
Parameter Frequency
Liver enzymes (AST/ALT/GGT) Weekly
Testosterone levels Every 2 weeks
LH & FSH Every 4 weeks
Complete blood count Bi-weekly
Hormonal profile (DHEA, cortisol) Monthly
Safety Protocols
Immediate discontinuation if AST or ALT > 3x upper limit of normal.
Re-evaluate any patient with symptoms: jaundice, abdominal pain, fatigue.
Post-treatment follow-up at 6 weeks and 12 weeks for liver function normalization.
Summary
No direct evidence supports the claim that these drugs increase testosterone via aromatase inhibition or CYP3A4 interaction; the literature primarily discusses potential decreases in androgenic activity due to metabolic pathways.
Theoretical mechanisms involve enzyme induction/inhibition, but clinical significance remains uncertain and potentially harmful (e.g., hepatotoxicity).
Recommendation: Use these drugs with caution in patients concerned about testosterone levels or liver function; monitor hepatic enzymes and consider alternative treatments.
