A composition is provided including a first prohormone for increasing the concentration of a Class I parent androgen in a subject in vivo, and a second prohormone for increasing the concentration of a Class II parent androgen in the subject in vivo. The first prohormone includes a first carbon-carbon double bond at the 1 position, and a first 17&bgr;-hydroxy oxygen appended to the 17 position. The first prohormone further includes a first 17-position promoiety is appended to the first 17&bgr;-hydroxy oxygen as a substitute for the 17&bgr;-hydroxy hydrogen of the Class I parent androgen. The second prohormone includes a second carbon-carbon double bond at the 4 position and a second 17&bgr;-hydroxy oxygen appended to the 17 position. The second prohormone also includes a second 17-position promoiety appended to the second 17&bgr;-hydroxy oxygen as a substitute for the 17&bgr;-hydroxy hydrogen of the Class II parent androgen.
