Although all anabolic steroids have androgenic effects, some of them paradoxically results in feminization, such as breast tissue in males, a condition called gynecomastia. These side effect are caused by the natural conversion of testosterone into estrogen and estradiol by the action of aromatase enzyme, encoded by the CYP19A1 gene. [105]
Side effects of oxymetholone include increased sexual desire as well as symptoms of masculinization like acne, increased hair growth, and voice changes. [5] It can also cause liver damage . [ 5 ] [ 6 ] The drug is a synthetic androgen and anabolic steroid and hence is an agonist of the androgen receptor (AR), the biological target of androgens ...
Side effects with anabolic agents are very serious and are not to be ignored. Side effects include: acne, blood clots, aggressiveness, hallucinations, mania, stomach pain, headaches, dizziness, high blood pressure, testicular or scrotal pain, premature male baldness, hear attack, stroke, and liver or kidney failure.
Side effects of testosterone undecanoate include symptoms of masculinization like acne, increased hair growth, voice changes, hypertension, elevated liver enzymes, hypertriglyceridemia, and increased sexual desire. [11] The drug is a prodrug of testosterone, the biological ligand of the androgen receptor (AR) and hence is an androgen and ...
Side effects of metenolone esters include symptoms of masculinization like acne, increased hair growth, voice changes, and increased sexual desire. [6] Metenolone esters are synthetic androgens and anabolic steroids and hence are agonists of the androgen receptor (AR), the biological target of androgens like testosterone and dihydrotestosterone ...
Side effects from prolonged use are likely to include infertility in both men and women, as well as other steroid side effects such as acne and hirsutism. [8] Unlike most other anabolic steroids, THG also binds with high affinity to the glucocorticoid receptor, and while this effect may cause additional weight loss, it is also likely to cause additional side effects such as immunosuppression ...
Oxandrolone is an androgen and synthetic anabolic steroid (AAS) medication to help promote weight gain in various situations, to help offset protein catabolism caused by long-term corticosteroid therapy, to support recovery from severe burns, to treat bone pain associated with osteoporosis, to aid in the development of girls with Turner syndrome, and for other indications.
The desired effects of steroid precursors however, are often not seen as they do not bind well to androgen receptors. [46] Examples of prohormones include norandrostendione, androstenediol, and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). [45] These steroids have little desired effect compared to anabolic steroids, but have the same side effects. [47]
