Durabolin (nandrolone phenylpropionate) is an anabolic steroid that has been used in clinical settings to aid recovery from surgery, trauma, and chronic debilitating illnesses. Scientific support for its use comes from its known effects on protein synthesis, nitrogen retention, and muscle mass maintenance. Several studies from the 1960s through the 1980s explored nandrolone's role in promoting wound healing, preserving lean body mass, and supporting recovery in catabolic states (e.g., postoperative patients, burn victims). For example, research has shown that anabolic steroids like nandrolone can counteract muscle wasting and improve nitrogen balance in patients recovering from major surgery or injury (J Clin Endocrinol Metab, 1971; Br J Surg, 1974). However, the evidence is not uniformly robust: most studies are small, older, and sometimes lack rigorous methodology by today’s standards. Modern surgical recovery protocols rarely include anabolic steroids due to concerns about side effects (e.g., virilization, liver toxicity, cardiovascular risk) and the availability of safer alternatives such as nutritional support and physiotherapy. Still, nandrolone's use in surgical recovery has a scientific basis, particularly for patients at high risk of catabolic complications, but it is not widely adopted in current clinical practice due to risk-benefit considerations.
