Synopsis

Source of validity: Scientific
Rating (out of 5): 2

Methylclostebol is a synthetic anabolic-androgenic steroid (AAS), structurally related to testosterone and closely resembling clostebol. Its use in bodybuilding is primarily aimed at enhancing muscle mass, strength, and overall athletic performance. The rationale for its use is based on the well-established anabolic and androgenic effects of this class of compounds, which are known to promote protein synthesis and muscle growth. However, there is very limited direct scientific research or published clinical trials specifically on methylclostebol's efficacy or safety in humans for bodybuilding or muscle enhancement purposes.

Most evidence supporting its use comes from extrapolation of data on other similar anabolic steroids, as well as anecdotal reports from users. Methylclostebol is known to be used illicitly in the bodybuilding community, and it is listed as a banned substance by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). The lack of formal studies means that efficacy, optimal dosage, and safety profile are not well established. The risks associated with its use may include liver toxicity (as with many oral AAS), hormonal imbalances, cardiovascular strain, and other typical steroid-related adverse effects.

In summary, while the scientific rationale for methylclostebol use in bodybuilding is based on its anabolic properties, the direct evidence supporting its efficacy and safety is weak (rated 2/5), relying mostly on indirect evidence and anecdotal experience rather than robust clinical trials.
