List of androgens/anabolic steroids (alternate)

From WikiMD's WELLNESSPEDIA

Androgens and anabolic steroids are a group of hormones that play a crucial role in the development and maintenance of male sexual characteristics. They are also used in medical treatments to stimulate growth and appetite, induce male puberty, and treat chronic wasting conditions.

Androgens[edit]

Androgens are a group of hormones that primarily influence the development of the male reproductive system and secondary sexual characteristics. They are produced primarily in the testes, ovaries, and adrenal glands. The principal androgens are testosterone and dihydrotestosterone (DHT).

Anabolic Steroids[edit]

Anabolic steroids, also known as anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS), are synthetic derivatives of testosterone that are designed to maximize the anabolic effects (tissue building) while minimizing the androgenic effects (male sexual characteristics). They are used in medicine to treat conditions that occur when the body produces abnormally low amounts of testosterone, such as delayed puberty and some types of impotence.
