Funded Activity Summary

This program will expand research and policy development to overcome androgen misuse (off label testosterone prescribing for invalid indications) and combat androgen ('anabolic steroid') abuse for performance and image enhancement. Beyond expanding ongoing research, it will develop a new focus in developing drugs to accelerate recovery from androgen abuse, thereby preventing relapse during the slow natural recovery period typically lasting 6-18 months or longer
