just curious... how is her diet.. does she consume alot of refined carbs/sugars, etc.. has she had bloodwork done (to check thyroid/blood sugar, etc)? what kind of foods (carb/fat/protein ratios) is she consumming--and how often is she eating.. does she drink enough water? everything needs to be considered.. so many factors can bring u to a plateau type of scenario.
if she's craving sugar or refined foods or just too many carbs and she is craving them or always seemingly hungry..taking something to help with glucose tolerance factor might help... ie: ALA, diabetic blood sugar formulas usually contain this.. also chromium, fenugreek, bitter melon.. etc. i found that these helped me a great deal..
at the same time it's a good idea to re-examine how she is training (doing a circuit of weights would definitely help to start.. she doesn't have to jump into free weights).. how much cardio is she doing how often.. and what time of day (in the morning? on empty stomach?)
perhaps if she eats like a saint, she needs to incorporate cheat meals to boost metabolism?..
i only recently added some of the above herbs to help with insulen insensitivity (and thus fat burning is more efficient and boosted). i also re-examined my diet (when i was eating what carbs, what fats and how much, etc), and i busted through my plateau like it was nothing..
i make a point of having regular but unscheduled cheat days now (staggering calories).. and i switch up my training regularly in a number of ways. i also have a tendancy to overtrain (which can rend the same results)..
u probably have all this covered.. but i thought i'd mention it.. i think all of these factors should be considered before considering aas.. if they are not rectified, she will never lose that stubborn last bit of abdominal fat/water.
i have the same problems.. i have used anavar as well.. i never had any problems coming off of it (i've never used PCT after a cycle of just anavar). i've done much larger doses.. but everyone is different... it's best not to make assumptions with aas.. and best to start off at a very conservative dose and titrate up slowly after she can observe her reaction on the drug. also.. it's a good idea for her to have base blood work done one way or other so that if blood work is off in the future.. she will have an idea if it had anything to do with aas, etc. i haven't covered everything i can think of here.. and i don't want to go on about it, as u may have already considered these things and are only interested in info on anavar/PCT...
but u'r asking in the right section as far as advice goes.. there are sum ladies here that are far more knowledgable than i on aas/PCT in general. miss muscle as always..
and supergirl is also very knowledgable.. somewhere on here she has a post on women's PCT issues.. good read.

I need help with my wife. She has been working out regularly for 2 years now and has dropped down quite a good amount of weight, but now she has hit a dead end and has been struggling to loose some excess fat on the thighs and tummy. She is anxious about using anavar to cut down the excess fat and to loose more weight and to tone down. Currently she is 119lbs and her height is 5'4''. She works out regularly, mostly cardio but no weight training.
My questions to you are as follows:
1) Will 2.5mg anavar each day for 6 weeks give good results? I do not want her to start off with more than 2.5mg since this will be her 1st time using aas.
2) Will she need to do her PCT after the 6 weeks? If so, then what do you recommend in her case? I did read in one of supergirl's posts that St. John's Wart for depression and Nolvadex for Estrogen Rebound might be needed. But in her case with such low dosage do you think Nolvadex is required? If so, then what dose do you recommend?
I really need your help with this and I would appreciate any feedback from all the professional ladies out there.
Thanks in advance.
