Half-Life

One of the mildest and most tolerable anabolic steroids. No aromatization, very low androgenic effect. Mild suppression. Ideal for women or those sensitive to side effects. Weak mass builder alone — best combined.

Mechanism of Action

Does not aromatize. Does not 5α-reduce significantly. Mild AR binding. Notable for uniquely low hepatotoxicity despite oral availability. Immune-modulating effects documented in HIV patients.

Methenolone in HIV wasting: effects on weight and lean body mass

Porro LJ, et al. · 1995
