Common NameEpiandrosterone
DescriptionEpiandrosterone belongs to the class of organic compounds known as androgens and derivatives. These are 3-hydroxylated C19 steroid hormones. They are known to favor the development of masculine characteristics. They also show profound effects on scalp and body hair in humans. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Epiandrosterone.
