<!-- History, society, and culture -->
== Use in sports ==
Drostanolone propionate was first described in 1959 and was introduced for medical use in 1961.<ref name="Llewellyn2011" /><ref name="RingoldBatres1959" /><ref name="Publishing2013" /> In addition to its medical use, drostanolone propionate is used to ].<ref name="Llewellyn2011" /> The drug is a ] in many countries and so non-medical use is generally illicit.<ref name="Llewellyn2011" /><ref name="FFFLM2006" />

Drostanolone propionate is used primarily by athletes who need to retain strength while losing mass. It is beneficial to runners and athletes who must remain in a certain weight class.{{Citation needed|date=January 2010}}


==Medical uses==
It has gained popularity in the bodybuilding community as a diuretic and muscle defining drug. Individuals interested in using the drostanolone propionate are those that are looking to add muscle hardness and density to their physiques, nearly always for the purpose of bodybuilding competitions.{{Citation needed|date=January 2010}}
The principal clinical indication of drostanolone propionate in the ] as well as international markets was the treatment of advanced inoperable ] in women.<ref name="Llewellyn2011" />


] is part of the complex therapy for some kind of ], particularly the ones associated with hormone-active tissues like breast or ]. Some types of ] cells, expressing ]s (called ER+ cancers), use ] for their growth and dissemination. That is why drugs that block estrogen receptors or decrease their expression on the cell membrane, ]s, could limit the tumor spread and size. Drostanolone propionate has been FDA approved<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cder/ob/docs/obdetail.cfm?Appl_No=012936&TABLE1=OB_DISC|title=Orange Book: Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations|website=www.accessdata.fda.gov|access-date=2016-03-15}}</ref> as an ]ic drug for the treatment of breast cancer. By the time of its release, there were not many alternatives for patients with breast cancer and drostanolone propionate was a revolution for these patients. As it has lower ]ic rate compared to ], the risk of ] is much lighter. Due to this fact, women, who usually do not respond well to any AAS, were having much greater chance to survive cancer. Drostanolone propionate can also be used for breast tumors that do not respond well to other treatments or also as ] for advanced incurable tumors. The effects of the product depend of course on the dose and period of administration. The risk of virilization becomes greater with high doses and continuous administration period.
Drostanolone propionate can increase muscle hardness and density, giving an individual a more complete appearance when competing on stage.{{Citation needed|date=January 2010}} However, an already rather low body-fat level is needed for it to take full effect.{{Citation needed|date=January 2010}} Drostanolone propionate can promote increased strength while keeping body fat the same or even lowering it, something can help to prevent muscle loss while dieting.{{Citation needed|date=January 2010}} This can also allow strength athletes or those athletes in sports which have weight classes to increase performance without the risk of being raised into a higher weight class or add mass that may hinder performance.{{Citation needed|date=January 2010}}

==Pharmacology==

===Pharmacodynamics===
{{Relative androgenic to anabolic activity in animals}}

Drostanolone propionate is a ] of ].<ref name="Llewellyn2011" /> Like other AAS, drostanolone is an ] of the ] (AR).<ref name="Llewellyn2011" /> It is not a substrate for ] and is a poor substrate for ] (3α-HSD), and therefore shows a high ratio of ] to ] activity.<ref name="Llewellyn2011" /> As a DHT derivative, drostanolone is not a ] for ] and hence cannot be aromatized into ]ic ]s.<ref name="Llewellyn2011" /> While no data are available on the ]ic activity of drostanolone, it is thought to have low or no such activity similarly to other DHT derivatives.<ref name="Llewellyn2011" /> Since the drug is not ], it is not known to cause ].<ref name="Llewellyn2011" />

Drostanolone propionate, via its active form drostanolone, interacts with the AR and activates a cascade of genetic changes, including increased ] (]) and decreased ] ] (]). It also induces a reduction or inhibition of ] or ]s in the ]s, which is linked to its ] effects.<ref name="INCHEM">{{Cite web|url=http://www.inchem.org/documents/pims/pharm/pim901.htm|title=Drostanolone (PIM 901)|website=www.inchem.org|access-date=2016-03-15}}</ref>

===Pharmacokinetics===
Drostanolone propionate is not active via the ] route and must be administered via ].<ref name="Llewellyn2011" /> The ] of the drug via this route is approximately 2&nbsp;days.<ref name="Llewellyn2011" /> It has a much longer elimination half-life via intramuscular injection than drostanolone.<ref name="Llewellyn2011" /> Drostanolone propionate is ] into drostanolone, which is the active form.<ref name="Llewellyn2011" />
