Sustanon 100 is a testosterone-based injectable medication commonly used for hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in males with testosterone deficiency. It is a blend of short- and medium-acting testosterone esters that provide a steady release of the hormone over time. Manufactured by several pharmaceutical companies, Sustanon 100 is considered effective for maintaining stable testosterone levels.
CompositionSustanon 100 contains a combination of three testosterone esters:
Testosterone Propionate (20 mg): A fast-acting ester that provides an immediate increase in testosterone levels.Testosterone Phenylpropionate (40 mg): A medium-acting ester that sustains hormone release over a few days.Testosterone Isocaproate (40 mg): Another medium-acting ester that extends the duration of action.This combination ensures a rapid onset of action and a prolonged effect, typically lasting up to 1–2 weeks after administration.
Uses of Sustanon 100Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT):Treats male hypogonadism caused by insufficient natural testosterone production.Alleviates symptoms such as fatigue, low libido, depression, and muscle loss.Delayed Puberty: Helps induce secondary sexual characteristics in males with delayed puberty.Masculinization in Transgender Men: Used as part of gender-affirming hormone therapy.Catabolic States: Occasionally used in cases of severe weight loss or muscle wasting due to chronic illness.Mechanism of ActionSustanon 100 works by supplementing testosterone levels in the body. Testosterone is essential for maintaining:
Muscle mass and strengthBone densitySexual function and libidoEnergy levels and moodThe combination of esters allows for both immediate and sustained release, ensuring consistent testosterone levels without frequent injections.
