Methyltestosterone Functions & Traits:
Methyltestosterone is a purehormone that has an added methyl group attached in order for the hormone to survive oral ingestion. The methyl group is attached at the 17th carbon position officially classifying Methyltestosterone as a C17-aa anabolic androgenic steroid. Like all testosterone hormones, Methyltestosterone carries an anabolic rating of 100 as well as an androgenic rating of 100. However, due to the C17-aa alteration, its translating anabolic activity will be significantly less than most testosterone compounds.
On a functional basis, Methyltestosterone provides testosterone to the body that it may be lacking. Due to its low bioavailability and potent estrogenic nature that we’ll cover in the side effects section, this makes it a poor choice for performance. However, we will be able to make one performance exception when we look at the effects of Methyltestosterone.
As a pure testosterone hormone, Methyltestosterone is a perfect synthetic model of the primary male androgen testosterone. While synthetic in nature, once in the body the body will make no distinguishing difference in it and the testosterone it naturally produces. While the primary male androgen, women also produce and need testosterone, which often diminishes during menopause. However, while they need the hormone men need approximately ten times that of women.
Due to Methyltestosterone being testosterone, it will perform all the traits of the naturally produced hormone. The testosterone hormone greatly affects our physical and sexual wellbeing, and to a degree, even our mental function. When levels become low each and every one of these areas can be negatively affected. Conversely, when low levels are combated with compounds like Methyltestosterone functions return to where they’re supposed to be.
