Can epitestosterone shots be used to "mask" steroid use?

[Last Samurai]

in order to bring down the T/E ratio so that it's within limits.


and if so, is there any reason a fighter would be reluctant to do this?

 

[Gawd]

I would assume they also measure total testosterone. Anything else would be stupid.

Yes, epitestosterone can be used.

Why not do this? Because its FUCKING expensive. Even to guys making $1M a fight.

Yes, that is why epitestosterone is banned.

It's prohibitively expensive. I'll just leave that there. When you start looking at masking agents and exotic steroids the prices are high and availability is low. Doping is a mostly forbidden subject on this forum so I'm just going to leave this there.

Do not PM me. I have no info. Do your own research.
