Here are the effects you can expect from steroids:enlargement of the heart,shrunken testicles,elevated cholesterol,sterility,gynecomastia(you'll grow excess breast tissue) and increased risk of cancer.Of course the gains are not even comparable.Steroids will make you grow 1000 times faster.\nCreatine is safe when used as directed.The increased size comes from gains in strength and intramuscular water storage.Tell your cousin he's a lazy sot and everyone will laugh when his nuts are the size of cashews or smaller.Then when he's impotent for at least two weeks after his cycle ends.\nSteroids are either androgenic or anabolic in your body.Creatine is an amino acid compound present in all muscle tissue and to some degree in your liver.It's an adenosine tri phosphate pre curser(ATP) and is stored as phosphacreatine in your body.Creatine is legal where as steroids are not.Tell your cousin to join USAPL after his cycle so he can be embarassed when I not only beat him,but he fails his drug test and I pass.

I'm not sure who he thinks he's fooling trying to say he used the steroids with knowing they were steroids. Right Barry!  I always puts things on my tougue and rub on my body without knowing what they are.  You knew the rules.  You should've made sure what it was before doing them if you wanted to stick around for your standing ovation.

See an opthamologist or get a second opinion. Steroids should not be used in the eye for any long period of time. It may not be too late to reverse the effects..

As an ex-model, steroids had done wonders for my body and my career. I've done them the smart way, under the supervision of a doctor (who's my friend) and few famous professional body builders (I'm a female)\nIt depends how you do steroids, what amounts in what period of time you do, what kind of "antidotes" you use after the "cycle" to clean out your liver/kidneys and whole body.\n\nOne thing that I will vouch for 'till the end of my days is Human Growth Hormone. It is not considered a 'steroid" but you can think of it as one. hGH has saved my life, rebuilt all destroyed organs in my body (as a youngster, I did lots of heavy drugs while partying too much), it made me totally healthy. Since a kit works for 7 years ahead, my body STILL burns fat on it's own, all my wrinkles from tanning too much dissapeared, my hair and skin are just flawless. all doctors I told the truth to, confirmed that it is because I took hGH. When I first started taking it, I was only 18- it made me grow 2 inches taller. And I didn't get any side effects from it, because I took prescribed dosages.\n\nSteroids are not totally "evil". It's evil and wrong to take them without previous research and supervision of those who know how to take them safely.

STEROIDS DO NOT CAUSE YOUR PENIS TO SHRINK! People who say that are ignorant to what steroids really do. Yes they will shrink your testicles but you'd have to take a lot of steroids to notice. I was on steroids for about 2 years and I have no regrets. Even if your testicles shrink up into you, once you stop the steroids, they will come back down. E-mail me if there's any specific questions you have. Steroids have been big in the news lately and most are ignorant and don't know the real facts. Any drug is dangerous if you abuse it. Advil, asprin, diet pills, vitamins they're all dangerous if you really want to get into it.-

Yes, now they have to keep up with it though.  They can't just walk away now that they got stronger testing.\n\nNote to John C: All steroids are illegal without a prescribtion in the U.S, which is what were talking about.

Yes, and it's Testosterone.\nSee site below for more details:

A steroid is a lipid characterized by a carbon skeleton with four fused rings. Different steroids vary in the functional groups attached to these rings. Hundreds of distinct steroids have been identified in plants and animals. Their most important role in most living systems is as hormones.\n\n \nSteroid skeleton. Carbons 18 and above can be absent.In human physiology and medicine, the most important steroids are cholesterol, the steroid hormones, and their precursors and metabolites.\n\nIn conversations, the term steroid is often used more restrictively in specific contexts. For instance, steroid in common medical usage by non-endocrinologists usually refers to corticosteroids, nearly always glucocorticoids. In an athletic or body-building context, steroid commonly refers to anabolic steroids.\n\nCholesterol is an important steroid alcohol, being a common component of animal cell membranes. However, a high level of it can cause various conditions and diseases, such as atherosclerosis. Most other steroids are synthesized from cholesterol. Also, various hormones, including vertebrate sex hormones, are steroids created from cholesterol.\n\nThere are also various specific categories of steroids, including:\n\nAnabolic steroids - used by athletes to increase performance \nCorticosteroids - affects metabolism and electrolyte excretion \nSex hormones - androgens, estrogens, and progestagens \nProhormones - precursors to actual steroid hormones. They were manufactured by bodybuilding supplement companies until they were banned from the supplement market. \nPhytosterols - steroids naturally occurring in plants. \nSteroid hormones produce their physiological effects by binding to steroid hormone receptor proteins. The binding of steroid hormones to their receptors causes changes in gene transcription and cell function.

Plants, like fruits and vegetables, can be genetically engineered to produce bigger fruits. Steriods are naturally produced by the adrenal gland in mammals. Fruits are not mammals. I have never heard of fruits on steroids. Steroids are very powerful and very toxic. I have taken steroids for 3 years for an inflammatory autoimmune disease. You are probably referring to anabolic steroids. Since steroids are so dangerous do you think the Food and Drug Administration would allow them to be in fruits without your knowledge. Eat the pomegranate. The antioxicdants will do you both some good. There are no steroids in that fruit.

The use of anabolic steroids among athletes has been widely discussed in the press and the medical literature. Sports organizations generally condemn steroid use in the interest of fair competition, while sports physicians often focus on the dangerous side effects and health risks. Anabolic steroids or their breakdown products have been detected in athletes for many years, and black-market steroids are distributed to athletes at all levels of competition. This brief review describes how and why these agents are used by athletes, their effects on body size and athletic performance, and their known side effects.\n\nMisuse of anabolic steroids, growth hormone and other ergogenic aids is a complex problem. General solutions include education and motivation of athletes to avoid these drugs, state and federal regulations to limit their production and distribution, and unannounced drug testing of competitors.\n\nDefinition of Anabolic Steroids\n\nAnabolic steroids are more precisely characterized as anabolic-androgenic steroids. They include testosterone, the primary male sex hormone, and all chemically altered derivatives of testosterone that have anabolic (tissue-building) and androgenic (masculinizing) properties. Synthetic anabolic steroids have greater anabolic activity than androgenic activity when compared with testosterone; in large quantities, however, the synthetic steroids also have strong androgenic effects. Anabolic steroids have medical indications in the treatment of refractory anemias, hereditary angioedema, certain breast cancers, hypogonadism and starvation states.\n\nAthletes use anabolic steroids in the belief that these drugs increase body mass, muscle tissue, strength and aggressiveness. Testosterone and the synthetic anabolic steroids combine with an androgen receptor in skeletal muscles and other organs. This steroid/receptor complex stimulates production of RNA/DNA, which in turn leads to increased protein synthesis (Table 2). In muscle, increased amounts of actin and myosin are produced under the influence of anabolic steroids. These force-producing contractile proteins result in increased strength. Anabolic steroids have more dramatic effects on nitrogen retention and muscular development in females, in boys and in men who have been castrated or are otherwise deficient in natural androgens. Anabolic steroids may also exert positive effects on the growth of skeletal muscle by antagonizing protein breakdown. \n\nIn addition, anabolic steroids may produce an effect that is regulated through the central nervous system. Athletes commonly say that they are far more aggressive, experience less fatigue and recover more quickly from weight-training workouts when they are using steroids. Since minimal increments in muscular performance or psychologic benefit may constitute the difference between winning and losing, athletes may perceive these small, difficult-to-measure changes as crucial to their overall performance. Athletes often feel that they can perform weight-training workouts at a higher intensity and for longer periods under the influence of anabolic steroids. The more intensive training program leads to increased muscle mass development and improvement in strength and power. However, little or no scientific evidence supports this notion.\n\nIn athletes who do not use steroids, a strength stimulus (lifting) and an adequate diet will result in increased passage of amino acids into muscle cells and a subsequent increase in protein synthesis. Strength training without steroids will increase the number of steroid receptor sites in muscle. Strength-training programs, especially when combined with anabolic steroid use, cause not only an increase in steroid receptor sites but also saturation of these receptor sites. This results in increased protein synthesis and prevention of protein breakdown.\n\nTo date, most studies that have shown significant gains in muscle mass and strength with steroids have utilized the fo

When I look at his before pictures and him in the present there is no doubt in my mind that he has/is using steroids. Mark Mcguire and Sammy Sosa are others that have probably used steroids.

my experience has been that usually they will explain all the details at check-out and make sure that all is correct.\n(dose,timings,side-effects - if any , etc ...)

I reckon most of the above are partially correct but they don't really address your question. \n\nWe are all aware of the side effects from steroid abuse (note abuse) Steroids or testosterone can be taken depending on type and dosage while being monitored by a doctor quite successfully. It's the monster bodybuilders and 'self medicaters' that 'stack' steroids daily who are likely to have complications and even die.\n\nThere is no one hormone aside from testosterone that will help you. HGH supplementation does work but only with a few products on the market- Most claim miracles - not really true. You do not take this until you pass 30. It stimulates the pitutary (sp) gland as it secretes less as we get older. It works and side effects are minimal - you must be under medical supervision once again.\n\nTestosterone does work but using the same caution as above\n\nUse -  Creatine / Glutamine / L-Arginine / Whey protein\n\nEnd of the day mate - eat good - workout hard - You'll look great
