Mastaplex 200 mg is an oil-based drostanolone enanthate injectable manufactured by Axiolabs and dosed at 200 mg/mL in a 10 mL vial.
Mastaplex 200 mg is an injectable anabolic-androgenic steroid containing drostanolone enanthate, a long-acting DHT-derived anabolic agent. Drostanolone is structurally a modified form of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) featuring a methyl group at the carbon-2 alpha position, which significantly enhances its resistance to metabolic breakdown by the 3-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase enzyme in skeletal muscle tissue. The enanthate ester attached to the 17-beta hydroxyl group extends the half-life to approximately 7–10 days, allowing for less frequent administration compared to the propionate ester.
In clinical medicine, drostanolone was formerly approved for the treatment of inoperable breast cancer in women, marketed under brand names including Masteron, Masteril, and Drolban. It is no longer manufactured for clinical use, having been superseded by more effective treatments with lower side effect profiles. In non-medical bodybuilding contexts, drostanolone enanthate is commonly referenced during cutting phases and contest preparation for its anti-estrogenic properties and reputation for producing hard, dry muscle appearance with minimal water retention. Such use falls outside approved indications.
Drostanolone exerts its effects by binding to androgen receptors in muscle tissue, promoting muscle growth and fat loss while resisting metabolic breakdown. As a DHT derivative, it is not a substrate for aromatase and therefore cannot be converted into estrogenic metabolites, which distinguishes it from testosterone-based compounds and contributes to its "dry" profile. Non-medical use at supraphysiologic doses carries risks including suppression of endogenous testosterone production, lipid profile disruption, and androgenic effects such as accelerated hair loss in predisposed individuals.
Mastaplex 200 mg uses MCT oil as its carrier oil, providing the oil base for the drostanolone enanthate formulation.
Drostanolone enanthate is a long-acting DHT-derived injectable anabolic steroid with a distinctive profile, characterized by its extended release, lack of estrogen conversion, and reputation for producing a hard, dry physique aesthetic.
Drostanolone enanthate is the enanthate ester of drostanolone (2α-methyl-17β-hydroxy-5α-androstan-3-one), a synthetic anabolic steroid derived from dihydrotestosterone. The methyl group at carbon-2 alpha significantly enhances the anabolic strength of the compound by increasing its resistance to metabolism by 3-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in skeletal muscle tissue. The enanthate ester attached to the 17-beta hydroxyl group increases lipophilicity and slows absorption from the injection site, extending the therapeutic window compared to the shorter-acting propionate ester.
The pharmacokinetic profile of drostanolone enanthate includes a half-life of approximately 7–10 days, which supports less frequent administration than the propionate ester. Once in the bloodstream, the ester is cleaved by esterases to yield free (active) drostanolone. Research has demonstrated that drostanolone competes with androgen binding sites but does not interact with estrogen receptors, indicating that its effects are mediated through androgen receptor binding rather than estrogen receptor interaction.
Drostanolone enanthate is approximately five times as potent as natural methyltestosterone. As a DHT derivative, it is not a substrate for aromatase and hence cannot be aromatized into estrogenic metabolites. In bodybuilding contexts, it is valued for its ability to produce a hard, dry look, particularly at low body fat levels where its cosmetic effects become most visible.
Drostanolone enanthate's half-life of 7–10 days supports less frequent administration than the propionate ester, while its inability to aromatize distinguishes it from testosterone-based compounds and contributes to its "dry" profile.
Axiolabs produces several injectable anabolic products referenced in different contexts. Mastaplex 200 mg is a drostanolone enanthate product, placing it among the longer-acting injectable options alongside Testaplex E 250 (testosterone enanthate) and Decaplex 250 (nandrolone decanoate).
For a shorter-acting drostanolone ester, Mastaplex 100 (drostanolone propionate) offers more frequent administration with a half-life of approximately 2–3 days. For bodybuilders considering other DHT-derived compounds for cutting, Primoplex (methenolone) is commonly referenced for similar applications with a milder profile. The choice between these compounds depends on individual goals, injection frequency preference, and tolerance for androgenic side effects.
The information below is provided for educational reference only. Drostanolone enanthate is a prescription medication in many jurisdictions; medical use requires appropriate diagnosis and clinical supervision. Non-medical use falls outside approved indications.
In non-medical bodybuilding contexts, drostanolone enanthate is commonly referenced in the range of 200–600 mg per week, with beginners typically starting at 200–300 mg per week, intermediate users at 400–500 mg per week, and advanced users sometimes referencing up to 600 mg per week. Due to the long enanthate ester, doses are typically administered once or twice weekly to maintain stable blood levels.
| Use Case | Common Reference Range | Injection Frequency |
|---|---|---|
| Bodybuilding (non-medical, beginner) | 200–300 mg / week | Once or twice weekly |
| Bodybuilding (non-medical, intermediate) | 400–500 mg / week | Twice weekly |
| Advanced (non-medical) | 500–600 mg / week | Twice weekly |
In non-medical bodybuilding contexts, drostanolone enanthate is frequently referenced as a stacking compound during cutting cycles, often combined with a testosterone base. It is commonly stacked with Testaplex E 250 (testosterone enanthate) or Testaplex P 100 (testosterone propionate) for synergistic effects, as both provide an androgenic foundation while drostanolone contributes hardening and anti-estrogenic effects. A typical cycle of drostanolone enanthate lasts 8–12 weeks.
Some users report that drostanolone can partially reduce the need for aromatase inhibitors on moderate testosterone doses, but it is not a complete replacement at higher testosterone doses. Cycle structure, duration, and support compounds should be considered in the context of individual experience, health status, and bloodwork where possible.
Drostanolone enanthate is a DHT-derived compound and can accelerate hair loss in individuals predisposed to male pattern baldness. Finasteride will not help because it targets 5-alpha reductase, which does not affect DHT derivatives. Acne flare-ups are also commonly reported, particularly in those prone to acne. Lipid profile monitoring is relevant as DHT-derived compounds can negatively affect HDL cholesterol, with HDL suppression increasing with cycle duration.
Drostanolone enanthate suppresses endogenous testosterone production, and running it without a sufficient testosterone base can lead to libido crash, mood changes, and other symptoms of low testosterone. It should not be run as a standalone compound without a testosterone base.
Drostanolone enanthate suppresses the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, and post-cycle therapy is commonly recommended after a cycle. Agents such as Clomiplex (clomiphene citrate) and Tamoxiplex (tamoxifen citrate) are frequently referenced for this purpose. Due to the long enanthate ester, PCT should typically begin approximately 2 weeks after the final injection to allow for ester clearance.
Dosing strategies and support protocols should account for individual experience and health status. The information above is for educational reference and does not constitute medical advice.

Answers to common questions about Mastaplex 200 mg, drostanolone enanthate, dosing, and product characteristics.
Mastaplex 200 mg contains drostanolone enanthate, an injectable anabolic steroid. Historically, it was approved for treating inoperable breast cancer in women but is no longer manufactured for clinical use. In non-medical bodybuilding contexts, it is commonly referenced during cutting phases for muscle hardening and anti-estrogenic effects, though such use falls outside approved indications.
Drostanolone enanthate has a half-life of approximately 7–10 days, which supports less frequent administration than the propionate ester. In non-medical contexts, it is typically referenced as being administered once or twice weekly to maintain stable blood levels. This is distinct from medically supervised dosing, which is individualized by a clinician.
Yes. Drostanolone enanthate suppresses the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, and post-cycle therapy is commonly recommended after a cycle. Agents such as Clomiplex or Tamoxiplex are commonly referenced for this purpose. Due to the long enanthate ester, PCT should typically begin approximately 2 weeks after the final injection to allow for ester clearance.
Drostanolone enanthate binds to androgen receptors in muscle tissue, promoting muscle growth and fat loss while resisting metabolic breakdown. It is a modified form of dihydrotestosterone with a methyl group at carbon-2 alpha that increases its anabolic strength. It does not aromatize to estrogen, contributing to its reputation for producing a hard, dry physique appearance.
In bodybuilding discussions, the anti-estrogenic effects of drostanolone enanthate become apparent around weeks 3–4, with reduced water retention and a visibly tighter midsection if body fat is reasonably low. Early signs of muscle hardness and improved vascularity begin to appear in lean individuals during this period. Full steady-state effects for the enanthate ester are typically reached by weeks 8–12.
There is no universally "best" injectable for cutting. Drostanolone enanthate is commonly referenced for its hardening and anti-estrogenic effects, but Primoplex (methenolone) and Testaplex P 100 (testosterone propionate) are also widely discussed. The appropriate choice depends on individual goals, body fat levels, and tolerance for androgenic side effects.
Both are drostanolone esters, but they differ in release rate. Drostanolone enanthate has a half-life of approximately 7–10 days, supporting less frequent administration. Drostanolone propionate has a shorter half-life of approximately 2–3 days, requiring more frequent injections. Axiolabs offers Mastaplex 100 as its drostanolone propionate product.
Both are DHT-derived compounds used in cutting phases, but they have different profiles. Drostanolone is generally considered more aggressive for producing a hard, dry look with strong anti-estrogenic properties, while Primobolan (methenolone) is often described as milder and more sustainable. Axiolabs offers Primoplex as its methenolone product.
In non-medical bodybuilding contexts, 400 mg per week is within the commonly referenced range of 200–600 mg per week, typically at the intermediate level. Mastaplex 200 mg contains 200 mg/mL, so 400 mg would equal 2 mL per week. Dosage appropriateness depends on individual factors and the overall cycle context.
Mastaplex 200 mg is labeled at 200 mg of drostanolone enanthate per mL. It is supplied in a 10 mL vial, giving 2,000 mg of total labeled drostanolone enanthate content per vial.
Lab testing information for Mastaplex 200 mg is not available on this page. For product-specific testing inquiries, please contact customer support.
Yes. As a DHT-derived compound, drostanolone enanthate can accelerate hair loss in individuals with a genetic predisposition to male pattern baldness. Finasteride will not help because it targets 5-alpha reductase, which does not affect DHT derivatives. If you are already experiencing hair thinning, drostanolone may accelerate the process.
