In this video, I explains what steroids esters, half lives and detection times are.

The ester the drug is bound to changes the half life and detection time of the drug. The ester does not change the drug itself. For example testosterone enanthate, testosterone cypionate and testosterone propionate all deliver the drug testosterone. The only difference between the three is the half life and detection time. The longer the ester, the longer the half life and the longer the detection time.
The half-life time of a steroid is the amount of time required for the administered dosage to be reduced to one half of the original amount. For example, if an individual takes 100mg of Anadrol, which has a haft life of 16 hours, in 16 hours only 50mg of the substance will be remaining in his/her body.
The detection time of a steroid is the amount of time from ingestion that the drug will show up on a drug test.
This chart summarizes lists the half life and detection times of the most common steroids:
