Product Description:

17α-Methyltestosterone is a synthetic anabolic-androgenic steroid (AAS). It is a derivative of testosterone, modified by the addition of a methyl group at the 17α position, which significantly reduces its first-pass metabolism in the liver, allowing for oral administration. Its primary historical and clinical application has been in the treatment of conditions related to androgen deficiency, such as delayed puberty in males and certain types of breast cancer. However, its most prominent and recognized use is as a potent anabolic agent to promote muscle growth, increase strength, and accelerate recovery. This has led to its widespread misuse in sports and bodybuilding as a performance-enhancing drug. Due to its potent androgenic and anabolic effects, 17α-methyltestosterone is associated with significant health risks, including hepatotoxicity, cardiovascular issues, and endocrine system disruption. Its use is strictly controlled and banned by most major sports organizations. It is classified as a controlled substance in many countries.
