Endogenous androgens are responsible for normal growth and development

include growth and maturation of the
prostate, seminal vesicles, penis, and scrotum; development of male
hair distribution, such as beard,
pubic, chest, and axillary hair; laryngeal enlargement, vocal cord
thickening, and alterations in body
musculature and fat distribution. Drugs in this class also cause
retention of nitrogen, sodium, potassium,
and phosphorous, and decreased urinary excretion of calcium. Androgens
have been reported to
increase protein anabolism and decrease protein catabolism. Nitrogen
balance is improved only when
there is sufficient intake of calories and protein.
Androgens are responsible for the growth spurt of adolescence and for
eventual termination of linear
growth, brought about by fusion of the epiphyseal growth centers.
In children, exogenous androgens accelerate linear growth rates, but
