Side Effects
Like other anabolic steroids, 1-Testosterone can have several side effects, including liver damage, cardiovascular disease, and endocrine system disruption. It is also associated with androgenic side effects such as acne and hair loss.
Legal Status
In many countries, including the United States, 1-Testosterone is classified as a controlled substance, making its sale and use without a prescription illegal.
