Home > Glossary > A B C| Androgens are hormones that contribute to male secondary sexual properties including voice deepening, genital development, semen production and body hair growth. Androgens used to increase sports performance are primarily testosterones and their precursors. Although supplementation with these hormones has been found to help anaerobic athletes and bodybuilders by increasing lean body mass, the full extent of the side effects is still under investigation. |
