text: Exemestane has been used in doping to raise luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) levels, which in turn increases the ratio of male over female sexual hormones and so improves performance. The drug also counteracts gynecomastia as well as fat and water retention following excessive aromatase production due to testosterone doping.
  Along with other aromatase inhibitors, exemestane is on the World Anti-Doping Agency's list of prohibited substances.
