Oxandrolone
Oxandrolone is a synthetic steroid with properties similar to anabolic steroids, often used in medical contexts due to its muscle-building effects. It belongs to the class of 17β-hydroxylsteroids and is structurally related to other corticosteroids but differs in its selectivity for androgen receptors.
Medical Uses
Oxandrolone is primarily prescribed for conditions involving muscle wasting, such as due to HIV/AIDS-related lactic acidosis or severe burns. Its ability to promote lean muscle mass without significant androgenic effects makes it a preferred treatment in certain cases of gender dysphoria.
