I know I’m delusional but I’m actually curious.

    So it’s still possible?

    But seriously, I can tell why my chemistry teacher got fed up with my antics lol. Thanks!

      Is it possible in the strictest sense of chemical theory? Yes. it’s “possible” because they share the same building blocks. Is it possible in the context of human capability and practical chemistry? Absolutely not. like I said, even if you had a professional-grade laboratory, the reagents required to force linear fats into steroid rings (such as various organometallic catalysts or Birch reduction chemicals like liquid ammonia and lithium) are: HIGHLY VOLATILE

      EXTREMELY TOXIC

      EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE

      It would be so complex that you probably wouldn’t get a single gram of Nandrolone because of the complexity of the steps alone.
