Posted on Fri, 11 Dec 2020
Question: 6 months ago I did a steroid cycle. 2 weeks in lockdown started so I abandoned the cycle. The compound was anavar which I run @ 50mg a day. Since then, my face has changed significantly, and has continued to do so long after. The right side of my face is much larger than the left. My right cheekbone is much bigger and my right jawbone is warped. My hairline is also receding rapidly. What is happening?
