Methyltestosterone (Android 5, Android 10, Android 25, Metandren, Oreton, Oreton Methyl, Testred, Virilon) Oxymetholone (Anadrol-50) (Note that while the above anabolic steroids remain available in at least one formulation, many of the above-listed brand names have been discontinued.) Ethylestrenol (Maxibolin) and stanozolol (Winstrol) were ...
A steroid hormone is a steroid that acts as a hormone. Steroid hormones can be grouped into two classes: corticosteroids (typically made in the adrenal cortex, hence cortico-) and sex steroids (typically made in the gonads or placenta ). Within those two classes are five types according to the receptors to which they bind: glucocorticoids and ...
Androstenedione, or 4-androstenedione (abbreviated as A4 or Δ4-dione ), also known as androst-4-ene-3,17-dione, is an endogenous weak androgen steroid hormone and intermediate in the biosynthesis of estrone and of testosterone from dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). It is closely related to androstenediol (androst-5-ene-3β,17β-diol).
Mesterolone. Mesterolone, sold under the brand name Proviron among others, is an androgen and anabolic steroid (AAS) medication which is used mainly in the treatment of low testosterone levels. [2] [3] It has also been used to treat male infertility, although this use is controversial. [2] [4] [5] It is taken by mouth.
Testosterone undecanoate, or testosterone 17β-undecanoate, is a synthetic androstane steroid and a derivative of testosterone. [ 33][ 34] It is an androgen ester; specifically, it is the C17β undecylate (undecanoate) ester of testosterone. [ 33][ 34] A related testosterone ester with a similarly very long duration is testosterone buciclate ...
Steroids and their metabolites often function as signalling molecules (the most notable examples are steroid hormones), and steroids and phospholipids are components of cell membranes. [60] Steroids such as cholesterol decrease membrane fluidity. [61] Similar to lipids, steroids are highly concentrated energy stores. However, they are not ...
