Metabolite Identification
Common Name6β-Hydroxytestosterone
Description6beta-Hydroxytestosterone, also known as 4-androsten-6b,17b-diol-3-one, 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. Thus, 6beta-hydroxytestosterone is considered to be a steroid. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 6beta-Hydroxytestosterone.
