Anabolic Steroids

It is not only professional athletes that take anabolic steroids.

Both men and women through continued use may experience acne, a

bloated appearance, rapid weight gain, clotting disorders, liver damage,

premature heart attacks and strokes, elevated cholesterol levels, and

weakened tendons.

Women experience side effects such as: facial hair growth, a deepened

voice, breast reduction, and menstrual cycle changes.

There are many health hazards that go along with using steroids. Therefore, long after you give them up, you may still develop side

effects. This process is called

“stacking”. Steroids can be an extremely

dangerous thing to toy with, which is why there is a huge debate today over

whether or not they should be available.

Steroids can lead to behavioral effects such as “roid rage”-which is

feelings of invincibility and outright aggression. It is any

male, female, and even adolescents who take them-all with the desire to look,

perform, and feel better.

“Pyramiding” is the process where users slowly escalate steroid use,

reaching the peak and mid-cycle, then tapering the doses toward the end. Additionally, unlike

other drugs, steroid dangers may not be manifest for months, years, or even

decades.

There are many physical side effect that men and women who use

steroids face. Some side effects for men include: reduced sperm count,

impotence, development of breasts, shrinking of the testicles, and pain during

urination.

Steroid users may suffer from heart disease, liver cancer, depression, extreme

hostility and aggression, eating disorders, stunted height, acne, and the risk of

HIV and Hepatitis B by sharing needles for injection.
