| Long Term Effects of Steroids Hello Gang
Ok, we all know the short term effects that we can experiance when taking steroids, of which, include:
Acne
Liver Damage
Feminizing effects in males (growth of breast tissue / gyno)
Male attributes in females (deepening of voice, excessive hair growth)
Enlarged clitoris (women, DB)
Shrunken testicles
Physical addiction
Reduced sperm count
Impotence
Infertility
Baldness
Pain and difficulty urinating
Enlarged prostate
Baldness
Smaller Breast in women
Menstrual cycle stops
"Roid Rage"
Irritability..
Aggressiveness
Depression
Mood swings
Altered libido
Psychosis
Mental addiction
But what can we expect 20 or 30 years down the line?
As an example to work on, Im a pretty healthy 24 year old male.
Regular blood work all comes out ok, apart from high liver values once, which are now ok.
My cycles range from 1g - 2g but never over 2g a week.
I always take the proper meds along side my cycles (Nolva, ari, proviron) and always take the proper vitamins every day (Multi Vits, Vit C, Garlic, Cranberry, Fish Oil, etc)
Apart from the odd aches and pains, or simple injury, I feel fine.
Now, If i was to say, after this cycle, "thats it - Im going clean!" what effects do you think this would have on me, say, when im 50, clares 51 and we have two kids of 15?
Am I now at a higher risk of suffering from the below, even though I have been clean for 25 years.
Cancer
Liver Tumours
Heart Diesease
Heart Attack
Mental Problems
Am i going to see them get married, am i going to see them grow up? Am I going to leave clare on her own for the last 20 years of her life?
Now - I KNOW that life cannot be predicted. Steroids or no steroids, I could fall down with heart attack any time, I could get testicular cancer at any point - Hell, I could drive home from work tonight and have a head on with a 20 tonne arctic lorry.
Really, I just want your input, as to what you views are on the long term effects of steroid use.
