Morcellators use a blade and suction tube to simultaneously cut and remove tissue, which improves visibility and reduces the risk of perforations and gas embolus that are more likely with multiple equipment insertions.1 And because no energy is used in the uterine cavity, there is no risk of thermal injury.
Legal uses. Anabolic steroids, or anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS), are the synthetic (made in a lab) derivatives of the naturally produced hormone testosterone. They promote the growth of muscle (anabolic effect) and the typical male characteristics of puberty (androgenic effect).atural testosterone is the body's main ingredient for this process, but anabolic steroids can serve as a supplement. Once ingested, an AAS travels through the blood stream to the muscle tissue. It is drawn into the muscle cell's receiving dock, called an androgen receptor.
Many hormones are steroids. Steroids are a class of lipids. All steroids share a carbon skeleton composed of four fused rings. Hormones are compounds used for long distance signaling in both plants and animals. In animals, specialized cells produce hormones and release them into the circulatory system. Hormones travel to target cells in other parts of the body and cause a variety of changes in the target areas. Changes caused by hormones include changes in gene expression in target cells as well as Steroid hormones are soluble in lipids and can easily pass through cellular and nuclear membranes.
