It is such a versatile steroid hormone that it has some biological activity on virtually every tissue in the body.

Botanicals and nutritional agents include Cissus quadrangularis, Tribulus terrestrials, Withania somniferum, Pfaffia paniculata, Hemidesmus indicus, Rubia cordifolia, Panax spp, Serenoa repens, Pygeum, Catuaba, zinc monomethionine aspartate, L-Glutamine, L-Threonine, glucuronolactone, and several flavonoids.
