Testosterone Propionate, also known as Prop or Test Prop, is a derivative of testosterone (the male sex hormone). This testosterone version has an anabolic/androgenic ratio of 100/100 or 1:1, which means that it is as anabolic as it is androgenic. It has an approximate active life of 2-3 days and detection time of nearly 2-3 weeks and is superior to performance enhancing drugs such as testosterone enanthate, testosterone cypionate, and Sustanon as this propionate version of testosterone gets released faster into the bloodstream than the three drugs.

This testosterone derivative promotes the processes of protein synthesis and nitrogen retention. Since a higher level of nitrogen retention denotes improved ability of muscles to hold more of proteins and therefore enhanced muscle definition. When administered via intramuscular injections, Testosterone Propionate can inhibit natural production of testosterone and Hypothalamic Pituitary Testicular Axis (HPTA), which can be treated with antiestrogens such as Clomid and Nolvadex.

The recommended dose of testosterone propionate for men is 350-2000 mg per week and the advised dose for women is 50-100 mg per week. These doses can be taken with or without meals. For beginners (males), the recommended dose is 400 mg per week and the recommended dose is 20-50 mg per week for beginners (women). This derivative of testosterone can be stacked with performance enhancing drugs and anabolic steroids such as Dianabol, Deca Durabolin, and Equipoise during a steroid cycle but users must be ready with supplies of antiestrogens at end of the steroid cycle.
