Usage

General Description

3beta-(Methoxymethoxy)androst-5-en-17-one, also known as Mestanolone, is a synthetic androgen and anabolic steroid. It is derived from dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and is commonly used in the treatment of hypogonadism and male infertility. Mestanolone is a controlled substance and is classified as a Schedule III drug in the United States. It is primarily used for its anabolic properties, promoting muscle growth and increasing strength, but it also has androgenic effects, such as promoting the development of male sexual characteristics. Mestanolone is not approved for use in women and can cause virilization effects, and it is important to use it under the supervision of a healthcare professional.
