Synopsis

Source of validity: Scientific
Rating (out of 5): 3

Methylclostebol is a synthetic anabolic-androgenic steroid (AAS), structurally related to testosterone. Its primary mechanism of action involves binding to androgen receptors, promoting protein synthesis, and enhancing nitrogen retention in muscle tissue. These effects can result in increased muscle mass and improved muscle tone, especially in individuals suffering from muscle wasting or catabolic conditions. Methylclostebol and similar AAS compounds have been used in clinical settings to treat conditions characterized by muscle loss, such as severe injury, chronic illness, or age-related sarcopenia. However, methylclostebol itself is not widely approved for medical use and is more commonly encountered in the context of performance enhancement and bodybuilding. There is scientific rationale and limited historical use for anabolic steroids in the treatment of muscle wasting conditions, but robust clinical trials specifically evaluating methylclostebol are lacking. Most of the evidence comes from studies on related anabolic steroids, which have demonstrated efficacy in increasing lean body mass and improving muscle tone in certain populations. The use of methylclostebol for this purpose is therefore based on extrapolation from the known effects of other AAS, rather than direct clinical evidence. Additionally, the use of methylclostebol carries significant risks, including liver toxicity, hormonal imbalances, and cardiovascular complications. As a result, its use is generally not recommended outside of controlled medical supervision.
