    IMO a steroid is a substnace with the steroid ring in it... this includes also hormones that arent anabolic at all.. for example cortisol is a steroid hormone for sure.

    why do so many people argue about superdrol being a steroid and others saying no its not, and if it were it would be illegal?

    It IS a steroid , its an anabolic hormone that requires no conversion in your body, (if it did convert it would be a prohormone and not a steroid). Just because its legal doesnt mean its not as steroid. Its a loophole in the system that makes it legal.

    This also includes ALL hormones. Insulin is a steroid , thyroid is a steroid, there are steroids that asthmatics use to stop an asthma attack. Melatonin, seritonin, etc are also steroids, adrend****, too.

    WRONG!

    Those are hormones. Steroids are chemicals based on the sterane skeleton, thats it. I have attatched a picture of sterane so you can see what im talking about

    it sure doesnt... insulin is a peptide hormone, the hormones asthmatics use are peptide hormones and they also use some steroid hormoes too (similar to cortisol), but those are not used in an acute attack.. Melatonin and serotonin are not steroid hormones. Adrenal cortex produces several steoid hormones, u are right in that. Thyroid is a gland and the hormones it produces are aminoacid derivatives.. The sterane skeleton thing is right... steroid hormones are based on cortisol..

    this is correct. steroids don't just mean anabolic steroids.

    synthetic hormone bro, thats what a steroid is. most legal supps are not like this at all. there are exceptios though, like superdrol and halodrol but thoses are technically hormones too

    yea bro, all kinds of sh_t used to be legal back in the day. you could literally walk into a longs or something and buy dbol and test. btw, i definately believe that superdrol and halodrol will eventually be illegal. i hope that halodrol stays legal long enough for me to at least try it though

    superdrol is relatively similar to andro and 1-test. apparently its a certain molecular structure that didn't make the recent list of banned pro hormone supps that our genious president decided to make illegal. btw, ive heard that it is relatively similar to masteron
