Prohormones are precursors to hormones that can increase muscle mass and strength, decrease body fat, and improve energy. They can have negative side effects and some are illegal under the Anabolic Steroids Control Act. Professional advice is recommended before use.

Prohormones are components that are converted into hormones in the body. They are also known as pre-steroids or precursors to complete hormones. They are typically used by many bodybuilding athletes to increase lean muscle mass and strength. Their benefits are very similar to anabolic steroids, and for this reason, they are very popular among athletes.

These components have been used for many years, especially with the aim of increasing specific hormones in the body, such as testosterone. Athletes also often use prohormones to increase muscle size and strength, increase energy, and reduce muscle recovery time. They can also be used to decrease levels of body fat and have been used as part of many weight loss programs.

The process of converting prohormones into full-blown hormones in the body involves a complicated enzymatic process that occurs in the liver. It is also possible that not all of the prohormone is converted to a complete hormone. This process can also be highly dependent on the saturation level of the enzymes responsible for this conversion.

Some of the more popular prohormones available on the market include 1-androstenediol (1-AD) and 4-androstenediol (4-AD). Both are converted to testosterone in the body and can provide significant increases in muscle size and strength. Other products available will generate similar increases, but may provide other benefits, such as increasing estrogen conversion and stimulating additional androgenic elements.

Since the use of prohormones can have negative side effects, it is always recommended that people are aware of the possible effects they could experience, in addition to the benefits. There may be a health risk associated with some prohormones when consumed in high doses, and it is best to seek professional advice in this regard. Side effects of prohormone use can include hair loss and enlarged prostate. In general, many of these side effects can be minimized by using the correct supplementation dosage. These side effects may also be the result of a genetic trait, and it may be helpful to know what medical problems may run in the family.

Many prohormones have been classified as illegal under the Anabolic Steroids Control Act. This may be largely due to the negative side effects that they can cause in both adults and children.
