Epiandrosteron, oswa isoandrosteron, ke yo rele tou 3β-androstrone, 3β-hydroxy-5α-androstan-17-yon sèl, oswa 5α-androstan-3β-ol-17-yon sèl, se yon òmòn esteroyid ak aktivite fèb androjenik. Li se yon metabolit nan testostewòn ak dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Li te premye izole nan 1931, pa Adolf Friedrich Johann Butenandt ak Kurt Tscherning. Yo distile plis pase 17,000 lit nan pipi gason, ki soti nan kote yo te resevwa 50 miligram nan androstrone cristalline (gen anpil chans melanje isomèr), ki te ase yo jwenn ke fòmil la chimik te sanble anpil ak estrone.

Epiandrosterone, or isoandrosterone,also known as 3β-androsterone, 3β-hydroxy-5α-androstan-17-one, or 5α-androstan-3β-ol-17-one, is a steroid hormone with weak androgenic activity. It is a metabolite of testosteroneand dihydrotestosterone (DHT). It was first isolated in 1931, by Adolf Friedrich Johann Butenandt and Kurt Tscherning. They distilled over 17,000 litres of male urine, from which they got 50 milligrams of crystalline androsterone (most likely mixed isomers), which was sufficient to find that the chemical formula was very similar to estrone.
