Source-checked regulatory summary

4-Androstenediol.

S1
Regulatory coverage only

Checked 2026-11-10. Independent clinical review has not been completed. WADAFUK is independent of WADA and does not provide medical advice or an individual anti-doping determination.

Regulatory summary with limited context. A compound-specific science and safety review is still missing.

REGULATORY SUMMARY2026 LIST

Prohibited at all times

4-Androstenediol is covered by S1.1 of the effective 2026 WADA List and is prohibited in and out of competition. S1.1 applies to exogenous administration; its coverage is not limited to the named examples and includes relevant esters. [2]

S1.1; 2026 List, printed pages 5–6 · 2026 rules apply from 1 January 2026. Any 2027 material below concerns future rules from 1 January 2027; it is not current clearance.

EVIDENCE / 01

List year

The 2026 List is the effective edition on this review date. The checked 2027 S1 text showed no change, but the 2027 edition does not take effect until 1 January 2027. [2] [3] [1]

Limits of this evidence
  • Consult the official edition and responsible anti-doping organization for consequential decisions. This reference does not provide medical advice, a TUE decision, product certification or individual clearance.

What remains uncertain

  • Molecule-specific evidence was not sufficiently verified for a substantive public profile in this review. This is a rule-only entry, not a thorough molecule review; absence of reviewed evidence does not establish safety.
  • Chemical registry identifiers, every alias and jurisdiction-specific product availability have not been exhaustively reconciled.
TRACEABILITY

Check the sources.

These are concise editorial paraphrases of selected sources, not a systematic review or a reproduction of source tables. Access depth is shown for each reference; an abstract-only check cannot resolve details found only in a full paper.
