"Structural characteristics of anabolic androgenic steroids contributing to binding to the androgen receptor and to their anabolic and androgenic activities. Applied modifications in the steroidal structure". Steroids. 74 (2): 172– 97.
List of androgens/anabolic steroids (alternate) – steroidal androgens/anabolic steroids; List of – steroidal antiandrogens; List of estrogens – estrogens; List of progestogens – progestogens; List of corticosteroids – corticosteroids, including both glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids; List of neurosteroids – excitatory ...
This is a complete list of androgens/anabolic steroids (AAS) and formulations that are approved by the FDA Tooltip Food and Drug Administration and available in the United States. AAS like testosterone are used in androgen replacement therapy (ART), a form of hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and for other indications.
Steroid ring system. This is a list of androgens/anabolic steroids (AAS) or testosterone derivatives. Esters are mostly not included in this list; for esters, see here instead. The major classes of testosterone derivatives include the following (as well as combinations thereof):
Anabolic steroids influence cellular differentiation while favoring the development of muscle cells over fat-storage cells. [138] Research in this field has shown that structural modifications in anabolic steroids are critical in determining their binding affinity to ARs and their resulting anabolic and androgenic activities.

Blood doping is the injection of red blood cells, related blood products that contain red blood cells, or artificial oxygen containers. This is done by extracting and storing one's own blood prior to an athletic competition, well in advance of the competition so that the body can replenish its natural levels of red blood cells, and subsequently injecting the stored blood immediately before ...
The legal status of anabolic steroids varies from country to country. In the U.S., anabolic steroids are listed as Schedule III controlled substances under the Controlled Substances Act, which makes the possession of such substances without a prescription a federal crime punishable by up to seven years in prison. [40]
The drug is a prodrug of testosterone, the biological ligand of the androgen receptor (AR) and hence is an androgen and anabolic steroid. [ 16 ] [ 11 ] It has strong androgenic effects and moderate anabolic effects, which make it useful for producing masculinization and suitable for androgen replacement therapy . [ 11 ]
