Dostinex (Cabergoline)

Reduce serum prolactin levels with Dostinex (Cabergoline) during PCT

Dostinex (Cabergoline) is an effective medication often recommended as an essential part of any post cycle therapy (PCT) protocol, particularly during and/or after an anabolic-androgenic steroid (AAS) cycle involving steroids that aromatize and convert to a female hormone called estrogen.
In this overview, we take a quick look at the origins of Dostinex (Cabergoline) while explaining how this drug works as an effective PCT medication.

1) The origins of Dostinex (Cabergoline)

The first thing to know is that Dostinex is the brand name of the drug known under the generic name Cabergoline.
The creation of Cabergoline or “Caber” as it is affectionately known in the bodybuilding community, began in 1986 by an Italian pharmaceutical company known as Farmitalia-Carlo Erba Spa.
However, over the years the drug was bought up by major pharmaceutical companies, first by Pharmacia and then by Pfizer in 2002.

2) What is Dostinex (Cabergoline)?

As a medicine, Dostinex (Cabergoline) is used in the medical field for the treatment of prolactinomas. This is a benign form of tumor located in the pituitary gland and which causes the lactotroph cells of this organ to indiscriminately secrete prolactin into the body.
The medical world has embraced Dostinex (Cabergoline) because of its potency as a dopamine agonist that helps regulate the amount of prolactin in the body.

3) How does Dostinex (Cabergoline) work?

As a dopamine agonist, Dostinex (Cabergoline) binds to D2 receptors located in your body and inhibits the release of prolactin in the body.
Dostinex (Cabergoline) also indirectly reduces the amount of prolactin already secreted in the body and thus prevents severe estrogenic side effects such as gynecomastia.
Caber is ideal for bodybuilders who are on cycles consisting of exogenous testosterone-boosting AAS such as trenbolone and nandrolone. These steroids are known to convert to estrogen when administered in a process called aromatization.
Estrogen is a female hormone that can cause a number of feminizing side effects in male bodybuilders, including water retention and male boobs (gynecomastia).

4) Why is Dostinex (Cabergoline) used in bodybuilding?

Dostinex (Cabergoline) is used by bodybuilders during and/or after an AAS cycle or a stack involving the use of estrogen converting steroids.
As already mentioned, cabergoline inhibits the secretion of prolactin by the lactotroph cells of the pituitary gland.
Cabergoline also helps reduce serum prolactin levels in the body to prevent escalation of feminization side effects.
