Steroids aren’t just synthetic testosterone at all

Some don’t even effect testosterone at all

Anabolic steroids, which is what the article is about, ARE synthetic testosterone variants. Other steroids aren't relevant here.

AAS aren't purely synthetic tesosterone variants. You have 3 common categories; Testosterone and its derivatives, Dihydrotestosterone and its derivatives, and 19-nortestosterone (nandrolone) and its derivatives. On top of that there are a few completely novel steroids that aren't from any of those groups but aren't widely used.
