The Truth About Steroids
The Truth About Steroids
The truth about steroids is that they are very dangerous on your bones, kidneys, and liver. Steriod cause heart attacks, high blood pressure, cause serious illnesses to the brain and will kill your sex drive!
Steriods can cause you to have acne, loss of hair, make your testicles shrink in men and breast regression in women. Steroids can affect your mood and cause side effects of feeling happy, weepy, hyped up, with disturbance of sleep, serious psychiatric illness such as mania, aggressiveness and psychosis, delusions, loss of touch of reality. If they take other drugs, it will affect their brain as well.
Steroids can be divide in to two types, anabolic and androgenic, but the distinction in some ways is artificial. Anabolic steroids mainly affect metabolism, immunity and muscle, while androgenic steroids have strong masculinisation effects on women and sometimes feminisation effects on men. But all anabolic steroids will increase masculine characteristics such as thick facial hair if the dosage is significant.
Steroid cycling is a regular pattern of steroid use and non use by athletes or body builders, to get maximum results with minimum side effects, often by using a wide variety of different steroid preparations at the same time stacking, perhaps to avoid detection by timing to non use to concide with major competitions where steroids maybe imposed.
Steroids can also cause your voice to break as well, plus making your whole body broaden, like going from Bruce Banner to the Incredible Hulk! Also some users will do pyramidding with starting with low doses and building up over days or weeks to a peak dose and then tailing off.
In all honesty, steroid abuse may not get you now, but in time the nasty effects will get you in the end and its not pretty.
