Finasteride affects urinary steroid profiles and can potentially hide steroid abuse in sports drug testing.

The document concludes that better biomarkers are needed to detect long-term oral testosterone use in athletes.

New tests detect finasteride and dutasteride in urine quickly and easily.

New signs like changes in blood markers, physical symptoms, and behavioral shifts may help detect hidden steroid use in athletes.

The 39th Manfred Donike Workshop discussed methods for detecting misuse of steroids, gene doping, and the complexity of identifying drug residues in urine, highlighting the ongoing efforts to improve global anti-doping work.

Researchers developed a reliable method to measure testosterone and epitestosterone in urine for medical and anti-doping use.

Epitestosterone may counteract testosterone's effects and has roles in body processes like prostate growth and hair distribution.

The study found that urine metabolites M1b or M4 are the best indicators of ATD use in horses, with detection possible up to 77 hours in urine and 28 hours in blood.

5α-reductase inhibitors can interfere with doping tests by masking banned substances.

The document concludes that finasteride can reduce nandrolone detection in doping tests, suggesting frequent testing and setting metabolite level thresholds for detection.

Taking Saw palmetto and Pygeum africana can change the levels of certain steroids in urine, which could cause confusion in doping tests.

The document concludes that there are still unknowns about the effectiveness, risks, and detection of performance-enhancing drugs, and doping remains a challenge.

Scientists have developed a new method to detect steroid abuse in athletes using cell-based tests, which could be the future of anti-doping methods.

A yeast-based test can detect the steroid methyltestosterone in urine longer than traditional methods.

Forensic hair analysis for drugs is now more reliable and accurate.

Hair cortisol levels can show increased stress during late pregnancy but only for up to six months.

Anabolic steroids can build muscle and strength but have risks and need more research on their clinical benefits and side effects.

High testosterone to epitestosterone ratio in hair could predict male-pattern baldness.

More research is needed to understand how testosterone is maintained in adult males.
