Methyltestosterone is a synthetic anabolic steroid used widely in clinical medicine. It is essentially a derivative of testosterone but more stable. It is chiefly used to treat individuals who have either a deficiency or lack of testosterone in the body. Testosterone is essential for the development of sexual characteristics and growth of the body. In the last decade, the drug has also been used to treat advanced breast cancer in females.

Esterified estrogens and methyltestosterone combination is used to treat the symptoms of menopause in patients who did not get relief after being treated with estrogens alone. These symptoms may include a feeling of heat, sweating, and warmth in the face, neck, or chest ("hot flashes"); and dryness, burning, and itching in the vagina. Esterified estrogens are a man-made mixture of estrogens. Estrogen is a hormone that is produced by the body in greater amounts in females. It is necessary for normal sexual development of the female and for regulation of the menstrual cycle during the childbearing years. Methyltestosterone is a man-made form of testosterone, a hormone that is produced by the body in greater amounts in males and small amounts in females. Menopause symptoms occur when the hormone balance changes in the female body. This combination of hormones will relieve the symptoms of menopause by adding more hormones to the body.

As it applies to athletes and bodybuilders, the structure of  Methyltestosterone really limits its use to very precise applications. It’s 17-alpha-methyl alteration allows it to survive its first pass through the liver. Other than that, this alteration, as mentioned in the previous paragraph, contributes to the hepatoxicity (liver toxicity). Fortunately this compound actually doesn’t have adverse effects on cholesterol and, and has been shown to lower plasma viscosity. However, since this is just an orally active testosterone, we can expect aromatization (conversion to estrogen) as well as virilization. In addition, as with any form type of Testosterone, it will convert to Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which can contribute to both prostate enlargement and hair loss. Taking endogenous hormones will almost always affect your natural testosterone levels, and Methyltestosterone is no exception to this. Using Methyltestosterone will result in significant decreases in plasma levels of gonadotropins (LH and FSH), gonadal steroids, sex hormone binding globulin, free T3 and T4, as well as thyroid binding globulin. Typically, it is recommend Arimidex (Anastrozole) at 5mgs/day to help lower estrogen levels or a similar ancillary compound.
A methyl-testosterone product used for extensive time periods can cause severe hepatoxicity, so use is best limited to 6, maximum 8 weeks on end followed by an off-period of equal length or longer.

In conclusion, most will find methyl-testosterone to not be worth their while. The side effects are ever present, and while they can easily be combated with a combination of arimidex and finasteride, it seems a bit idiotic to pay 15 or more dollars per day on ancillary drugs that will reduce the anabolic activity, while spending only 1-2 bucks at most on the steroid itself.

Side effects that usually do not require medical attention (report to your prescriber or health care professional if they continue or are bothersome):
acne,burning or irritation in the mouth,headache,sexual difficulties; changes in sexual desire can occur in either male or female patients, and excessive doses can cause impotence in men
