Category: Anabolic Steroids

Specific type of steroid, primarily used to promote muscle growth (anabolism). They are synthetic derivatives of testosterone, the natural male sex hormone, and are designed to enhance protein synthesis in muscle cells, leading to increased muscle mass and strength.

• Anabolic refers to the muscle-building effects of the steroid, while androgenic refers to the development of male sexual characteristics (e.g., facial hair, deep voice).

• Examples of anabolic steroids include testosterone enanthate, nandrolone decanoate, and methandrostenolone.
