The Controversy of Nandrolone

Nandrolone which is also known as as Deca-Durabolin) has the IUPAC name 17b-hydroxy-19-nor-4-andro-sten-3-one, and is an anabolic steroid which occurs naturally in the human body, but only in tiny quantities. Nandrolone is used in the treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.It is also used for some aplastic anaemias.Nandrolone
Nandrolone is an anabolic steroid which has recently caused a great deal of controversy after a number of big name athletes have been banned from competition after failing tests for this drug. These people include Linford Christie, Mark Richardson and Dougie Walker (all well known British sprinters), and Merlene Ottey (the Jamaican former 200 m world champion), as well as Dieter Baumann (the German 500 m runner). After protesting their innocence, all were subsequently cleared by their national athletics organisations, although the International Amateur Athletics Federation fueled the controversy further by overturning the reinstatement of Christie and Walker. As well as athletes, French soccer star Christophe Dugarry tested positive for nandrolone after a match last year, and following a Wimbledon quarter final in 1998 Czech tennis player Petr Korda also failed a test. But the fact that so many sportsmen have tested positive for the same substance in such a short space of time has led to speculation that the testing procedure may be flawed, or inaccurate.
