Mibolerone, also known as dimethylnortestosterone (DMNT) and sold under the brand names Cheque Drops and Matenon, is a synthetic, orally active, and extremely potent anabolic–androgenic steroid (AAS) and a 17α-alkylated nandrolone (19-nortestosterone) derivative which was marketed by Upjohn for use as a veterinary drug.
Anabolic steroids are synthetically derived from testosterone and modified to have greater anabolic effects. [7] They work by increasing the concentration of nitrogen in the muscle which inhibits catabolic glucocorticoid binding to muscle. [8] This ultimately prohibits the breakdown of muscle and preserves muscle mass. [9]
When the oil-steroid solution gets into the bloodstream, the steroid oil solution travels into the lungs, therefore causing a coughing fit. There exist several theories on why this phenomenon happens. [9] It is possible that the androgenic effect from steroids activates a variety of lipid-like active compounds which are called prostaglandins. [10]
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]
Ethylestrenol, also known as ethyloestrenol or ethylnandrol and sold under the brand names Maxibolin and Orabolin among others, is an androgen and anabolic steroid (AAS) medication which has been used in the past for a variety of indications such as to promote weight gain and to treat anemia and osteoporosis but has been discontinued for use in humans.

Side effects of trenbolone acetate include symptoms of masculinization like acne, increased body hair growth, scalp hair loss, voice changes, and increased sexual desire. [5] The drug is a synthetic androgen and anabolic steroid [ 6 ] and hence is an agonist of the androgen receptor (AR), the biological target of androgens like testosterone and ...
Boldenone, also known as Δ 1-testosterone, 1-dehydrotestosterone, or androsta-1,4-dien-17β-ol-3-one, is a naturally occurring androstane steroid and a derivative of testosterone. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] [ 7 ] It is specifically testosterone with a double bond between the C1 and C2 positions.
Dimethyltrienolone is an extremely potent agonist of the androgen and progesterone receptors and hence AAS and progestogen. [1] In animal bioassays, it was shown to possess more than 100 times the anabolic and androgenic potency of the reference AAS methyltestosterone. [1]
