Medical action:

Methenolone is an anabolic steroid that boosts DNA, RNA, and protein synthesis by stimulating the cell’s genetic apparatus. It also enhances tissue respiration and, furthermore, boosts oxidative phosphorylation, ATP synthesis, and intracellular macroregion aggregation. It stimulates anabolic processes and inhibits the catabolic one caused by glucocorticoids. Methenolone administration leads to increased muscle mass, reduces fat deposits, improves trophic tissues, promotes calcium deposition in bones, retains sodium and water in the body. The increase in erythropoietin synthesis determines the hematopoietic action. The androgenic action may contribute to the development of male secondary sexual characteristics.
