Androstanolone, also known as dihydrotestosterone (DHT), is an endogenous androgen and anabolic steroid. It is used medically mainly for the treatment of male hypogonadism, delayed puberty, and certain kinds of breast cancer, though less frequently than testosterone. It is not widely approved for therapeutic use in many countries today, and is more often used in specific clinical cases or research settings.
