Before you go any further
This substance is LETHAL AND NOT TO BE USED IN ANY FISHING SITUATION WHATSOEVER !!!
Listen to the Carp Chronicles Podcast thoroughly, before even thinking of Googling hormones for carp.
This substance is ILLEGAL in the wrong hands, and ONLY available for licensed professionals who have absolutely nothing to do with fishing/aquaculture.
DON`T EVEN THINK OF TRYING TO SOURCE OR USE THIS HIGHLY DANGEROUS SUBSTANCE, OR YOU STAND TO JEOPARDIZE CARP WELFARE ON A SERIOUS LEVEL PLEASE AVOID AT ALL COSTS !!!
This is NOT the Holy Grail, and could potentially wipe out the stock in the lake

If that is the case and It is so dangerous why the **** are people using it
The answer is simple = catch at ALL costs
Environment is number 1

Chris :
Those FEW using it are in it for :-
1- Financial gain via carp matches
2- Fame (Sponsorship/Social Media)
3- As you rightly say, "Catch at all costs" mentality.
Unfortunately, the days of ethics, etiquette, integrity, scruples, sportsmanship, to name a few, have dwindled to a trickle

Sadly, so true
Thank God I can still find some peace and quite away from the circus that carp fishing has become

Or to look at it another way 90% of carp are put into water purely to be fattened up and caught until they die.
Not sure anybody can take the moral high ground in the great scheme of things.

It does sound like you're trying to find out what it is so you can use it wac. Sure, there's been times after a run of blanks in the middle of feb that I'd sell my bottom to a Michael Barrymore pool party to catch one, but really? If you are that desperate, there's plenty of overstocked puddles that you can go to.
Its not the end result that matters, its the chase......

I still think it needs naming. I understand what some say about 'if you name it people will search for it' but right now they ARE searching for it and finding all-sorts to chuck in anyway and and who knows what levels! As some have said the alternatives they are finding are possibly even worse for the lake and its ecosystem 
How is a lake/club/syndicate supposed to ban it if they can't name it? I can imagine some trying to come up with a catch all wording like 'no liquids or powders with hormones or steroids to be used'. That's great but as an example fresh liquid liver can contain some hormones naturally and how many of us have used, or still use, liquidised liver?
