Yes, some are still legal. There are some that are legal and can actually be considered supplements and some that are just "grey area" unbanned steroids. I will list most of them below, to the best of my memory:
Legal prohormones considered supplements:
Delta-2-androst-17-one
androsterone
1-androsterone
4-androsterone
Legal hormonal considered supplements (may be anti-estrogenic or anti-cortisol)
Androst-3,5-dien-7,17-dione
7-Keto DHEA
7-OH DHEA
andrenosterone AKA 11-ketoandrostenedione
11-ketotestosterone
"grey market steroids"
2a-3a-epithio-17a-methyl-5a-androstan-17b-ol
2a, 17a-dimethyl-17b-hydroxy-5a-etiocholan -3-one
4-chloro-17a-methyl-4-ene-3,17 diol
4-chloro-17a-methyl-1,4-diene-3,17 diol
[3,2-c]pyrazole-5alpha-etioallocholane-17beta-tetrahydropyranol
13-ethyl-3methoxygona-2, 5(10)-dien-17-one
17a-methyl-1,4-Androstadiene-3,17diol

Yes.
prohormones. These prohormones are inactive and need to be cleaved or modified to become biologically active peptide hormones.
I wouldn't considering their both hepatoxic. Prohormones are stressful enough on the liver without adding something like Hydrocodone, that would be a bad combination.
Yes, prohormones can generally be taken with creatine, as they serve different purposes in bodybuilding and fitness. Prohormones are designed to enhance hormone levels and promote muscle growth, while creatine helps improve strength and performance during high-intensity exercise. However, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional before combining any supplements, as individual responses and potential side effects can vary. Always ensure that you are using reputable products and following recommended dosages.
Yes, prohormones can potentially cause birth defects if taken during pregnancy. These substances can alter hormonal levels and may interfere with fetal development, leading to various complications. It's crucial for pregnant individuals or those planning to become pregnant to avoid using prohormones and consult with a healthcare professional regarding any supplements or medications.
Tribulus stimulates the production of luteinizing hormone. This in turn increases production of testosterone. Small amounts of Testosterone are converted to estrogen via the aromatase enzyme. So Tribulus may increase estrogen as well. DHT prohormones do not convert to estrogen. There are many other non DHT prohormones that do not convert to estrogen as well. Delta-2-androst-17-one and 4-chloro-17a-methyl-androst-1,4-diene-3b,17b-diol are two common non-aromatizing AKA non estrogenic compounds.
Halodrol liquid gels are not classified as traditional anabolic steroids, but they are considered prohormones. Prohormones are substances that convert into anabolic steroids in the body, which can lead to muscle growth and increased strength. Halodrol specifically is known for its potential effects on muscle mass and performance, but it is important to note that its use can carry risks and side effects similar to those of steroids. Always consult with a healthcare professional before using such substances.
Taking Extenze, a male enhancement supplement, alongside prohormones can pose potential health risks due to the combination of ingredients that may affect hormone levels and cardiovascular health. Both can lead to increased blood pressure, hormonal imbalances, or other side effects. It's crucial to consult a healthcare professional before combining these substances to ensure safety and avoid adverse reactions. Always prioritize safety and informed decision-making regarding supplements.
Yes. Legal steroids of all kinds are abused. The term "legal steroids" commonly refers to the non-prescription and unregulated products that are being used within the bodybuilding community. These "legal steroids" are designed for bodybuilders and very serious athletes to offer similar anabolic-like effects, with minimal side effects. Most of them are simply molecularly modified versions from the original anabolic component or they contain concentrated amount of prohormones, precursors or other growth promotants. These legal steroids can be safe when used as directed, however athletes find that taking more than the recommended dose will drasctically increase the rate of muscle gain. At higher doses(NOT RECOMMENDED), gains of up to 20 lbs of bodyweight in 1 month have been reported.
Legal steroids has 2 modern definitions: Either they are steroids obtained through a doctors prescription for a legitimate medical use, or the term is used in reference to the muscular enhancement products that bodybuilders today are using.The classification "Legal Steroids" is used to define the purpose or intent of the product.The products are legal because they usually contain a "clone" ,imitation of the original anabolic steroids, but since the molecular structure is not identical, it is not classified as an illegal product. Some are prohormones that are not yet on the banned list. Some legal steroids will also contain a blend of concentrated products known in te chemistry community to have anabolic like effects. These products can usually remain on the market for up to 18 months before FDA laws can make modifications to existing laws in order to ban the product.
Prehormone is a biochemical substance secreted by glandular tissue, have no significant hormonal action but is converted into active hormone in peripheral tisuues. Prohormone is a precursor of hormone and have minimal hormonal effect by itself. Dont know the difference..................:-(
