no, in fact corticosteroids can cause fat gain, and muscle wasting. The exact opposite effect of anabolic/androgenic steroids
Simply put, its a pathway where larger molecules are made from smaller intermediates and requires energy. This is the opposite to catabolism.
it is anabolic
An anabolic steroid is any of a group of synthetic steroid hormones used to stimulate muscle and bone growth. Anabolic steroids, or anabolic-androgenic steroids are a class of steroid hormones related to the hormone testosterone. which results in the buildup of cellular tissue especially in muscle.
anabolic
Anabolic steroids, officially known as anabolic-androgen steroids
In physiology any process that builds up a tissue (whether it be muscle or bone or fat etc.) is called anabolic (as in "anabolic steroids", which build muscle). The opposite is catabolic, which refers to those processes that break down tissue.
An anabolic is another term for an anabolic steroid - a class of steroid hormones which promote the growth of tissue.
it could be anabolic and catabolic
