Clostebol is an androgenic steroid . It is a less potent derivative of testosterone that is metabolically neither converted to estrogen nor to DHT .

Until June 30, 2003 it was available on the German market as "Megagrisevit-Mono" from Pharmacia to treat a slight testosterone deficiency in men. In body building , the substance was misused by female athletes for moderate muscle building, since the anabolic and androgenic components are low and the side effects in women are therefore lower than with the stronger testosterone. Common side effects include hair loss and acne , and when taken orally, a heavy burden on the liver .
