Compounds of structural formula I are modulators of the androgen receptor (AR) in a tissue selective manner. They are useful as agonists of the androgen receptor in bone and / or muscle tissue while antagonizing the AR in the prostate of a male patient or in the uterus of a female patient. These compounds are therefore useful in the enhancement of weakened muscle tone and the treatment of conditions caused by androgen deficiency or which can be ameliorated by androgen administration, including osteoporosis, osteopenia, glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis, periodontal disease, bone fracture, bone damage following bone reconstructive surgery, sarcopenia, frailty, aging skin, male hypogonadism, postmenopausal symptoms in women, atherosclerosis, hypercholesterolemia, hyperlipidemia, obesity, aplastic anemia and other hematopoietic disorders, inflammatory arthritis and joint repair, HIV-wasting, prostate cancer, cancer cachexia, Alzheimer's disease, muscular dystrophies, cognitive impairment, decreased libido, premature ovarian failure, and autoimmune disease, alone or in combination with other active agents.

The invention relates to a traditional Chinese medicine anti-fatigue health-preserving preparation, which is prepared from the following raw materials in parts by weight: 1-15 red ginseng, 10-50 maca, 10-50 astragalus, 5-30 angelica, and 1-15 tangerine peel , Green tea extract (theanine) 1‑15. This preparation is based on the treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome based on the theory of traditional Chinese medicine and modern medicine. The symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome involve limb weakness, low libido, joint pain, headache, forgetfulness, depression, insomnia, and difficulty in thinking. The state of health is called "slackness", "laziness", "tired limbs", "restlessness of limbs" and "reluctance to move limbs" in traditional Chinese medicine. In this preparation, red ginseng and astragalus invigorate qi, invigorate spleen and nourish blood, angelica sinensis, liver and spleen meridian nourish blood and activate blood, tangerine peel regulate qi and invigorate spleen, dry dampness and reduce phlegm, maca and green tea extract (theanine) directly resist fatigue, Depression, nerve relaxation, anti-insomnia, increase memory. The combination of the six medicines can strengthen the spleen, nourish the heart and calm the nerves, regulate qi, soothe the liver and nourish the blood, regulate the body's endocrine, stimulate the nerves, and the body fluid systems to cooperate and interoperate independently, so as to relieve fatigue and relieve symptoms related to chronic fatigue syndrome.
