HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Tri-Ad Mass by Alchemy Labs

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 4 active ingredients.
  • “Extreme Bulking Matrix” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (355 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Tri-Ad Mass contains 4 active ingredients. Three of them are androsterone compounds—3-Alpha-Hydroxy-5-Alpha-Androstan-17-One, 3alpha-Hydroxy-17-Androstanone, and 3Beta-Hydroxyandrost-5-En-17-One—which are anabolic-androgenic steroids.

The fourth is 3,3-Diindolylmethane (diindolylmethane), a compound derived from cruciferous vegetables that may have effects on hormone metabolism. The product also contains inactive ingredients: rice flour, capsule shell, magnesium stearate, and a delivery system called Rocket Delivery.

Does it work?

Insufficient evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Insufficient

There isn't enough reliable clinical evidence to rate this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: muscle building and athletic performance.
  • We looked for evidence on: Athletic performance, Exercise-induced muscle damage, Muscle strength, Sexual desire, Testosterone support, Lean mass gain.
  • The closest evidence on file: Androsterone is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Athletic performance (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Androsterone is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Muscle strength, Sexual desire, Exercise-induced muscle damage.

The evidence for androsterone in treating fatigue, sexual dysfunction, obesity, age-related low testosterone, and epilepsy is insufficient to rate—we don't have enough reliable data to say whether it works. The same applies to diindolylmethane for benign prostate enlargement, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, cervical dysplasia, and breast pain: the evidence base is insufficient.

In short, the effectiveness of either ingredient for any condition listed has not been established in our data.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Androsterone Diindolylmethane

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Androsterone is possibly unsafe when taken by mouth as an oral supplement. As an anabolic-androgenic steroid, it carries concern for serious side effects including heart disease and liver injury.

It is also a controlled substance illegal to sell as a dietary supplement in the United States. Diindolylmethane is generally well tolerated in short-term studies, though long-term safety is not well established.

Common side effects of diindolylmethane include diarrhea, gas, headache, nausea, rash, and vomiting. A rare serious side effect—a type of allergic rash called DRESS—has been reported.

One case of stroke was reported in someone taking diindolylmethane, though other factors likely contributed.

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Diindolylmethane, Androsterone.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 275 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking Tri-Ad Mass, check with your pharmacist if you take any androgens (like testosterone), estrogen or hormone replacement therapy, water pills (diuretics), or medications metabolized by the liver enzyme CYP1A2. Additionally, be aware that the androsterone compounds in this product are controlled substances illegal to sell as supplements in the U.S., which raises serious legal concerns beyond drug interactions.

3,3-Diindolymethane3 drug types · 269 drugs

Diuretic Drugs

Theoretically, diindolylmethane might increase the risk of hyponatremia if used with sodium-depleting diuretics.
Large doses of diindolylmethane (600 mg daily) have been associated with two cases of asymptomatic hyponatremia in clinical research.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Estrogens

Theoretically, diindolylmethane might increase or decrease the effects of estrogens.
Diindolylmethane might have mild estrogenic or antiestrogenic effects. Theoretically, large amounts of diindolylmethane might interfere with hormone replacement therapy.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, diindolylmethane might lower serum levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro evidence suggests that diindolylmethane can induce CYP1A2. Theoretically, it might increase metabolism of CYP1A2 substrates and lower serum concentrations. This interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D

3-Alpha-Hydroxy-5-Alpha-Androstan-17-One1 drug type · 9 drugs

Androgens

Androsterone, as an androgenic hormone, may interact with other androgenic drugs, such as testosterone, due to their similar mechanisms of action. Both androsterone and testosterone bind to androgen receptors in various tissues throughout the body, leading to similar physiological effects related to the development and maintenance of male secondary sexual characteristics. When taken together, these compounds can potentially amplify these effects, leading to an increased risk of androgenic side effects, such as acne, hair loss, and changes in libido. Additionally, combining androsterone with testosterone or other androgenic drugs may also affect hormone levels and balance in the body, potentially leading to hormonal imbalances or disruptions in the endocrine system.
