Methyltestosterone is a 17 alpha alkylated oral steroid that is a form of testosterone,it is the principle male sex hormone and an anabolic steroid found in mammals and conserved through most vertebrates, although fish make a slightly difference from called 11-ketotestosterone.It is primarily secreted in the tests of mails and the ovaries of female, although small amount a re also secreted by the adrenal glands.
The methyltestosterone steroid is an oral form of testosterone. The oral testosterone is inactive, because a good part of it is used in the liver metabolism and it is decomposed, so only 5-10% will be present in blood. If you will analyze carefully, you will observe that this steroid is a 17-alfa methyltestosterone, meaning that on the C-17 molecule’s position is growing a methyl group, so the Methyltestosterone is decomposed and it is inactivated in the liver area .
