We at Steroids .org are delighted that you’ve visited our website, and confident that you’ll find the diverse wealth of information and tools here to be invaluable resources for coping with the questions, problems and usage of anabolic steroids.

Among these resources are:

• Identification – Many of the works here provide insight into the minds and habits of teen and other steroid users which can, in a general way, aid in the identification of the symptoms these users exhibit. Other pieces are far more specific in this regard, for example, ‘How to Spot a User’ outlines several of the physical (external), physiological (internal), social (personality), and psychiatric (emotional) changes that teenagers and other steroid users often display, while providing fully illustrated pictures and commentary on the numerous ancillary drugs and steroid-related paraphernalia that often accompany the non-prescribed use of anabolic steroids.
  
• Steroids and Teenagers - There is so much at stake when a teen is exposed to illicit drugs, and steroids are no exception. Society’s influence on a teenager’s self-perception, vision of the future, and potential opportunities can create an incredible amount of pressure to which many teens see steroid use as a remedy. Adolescent research indicates that the majority of teen steroid users do so for improved physical attractiveness. Secondarily, athletic teens typically view steroid usage as a way to gain an edge on the competition, while still others see it as a ‘very necessary’ stepping stone to the next level of a sport.
  
• Steroids and Women - Although there is some overlap, study in this area clearly documents that women use steroids for reasons which are often quite different from those of men. Even more dissimilar are the risks and consequences associated with female steroid abuse. These risks can range from mild temporary problems to major, long-term, and sometimes irreversible physical & physiological conditions. It is commonly believed that milder oral steroids are safe for female use. This is categorically untrue, as all androgenic anabolic steroids (synthetic versions of the male sex hormone testosterone) are potentially hazardous to a woman’s delicately balanced, estrogen-based endocrine system.
  
• Steroids and Sports – Numerous survey results from several reputable entities consistently refute the popular media’s assertion that steroids are primarily used by athletes. It’s true that these drugs were and still are very much a part of the wide world of sports from football to track & field, baseball to cycling and apparently everywhere in between. However, according to the preponderance of research in this field, the primary steroid consumers (both teens & adults) are in fact recreational gym members who use steroids for aesthetic (attractiveness) enhancement.

Androgenic anabolic steroids are prescribed medications whereby, the prescription serves as a control for how much, often, and long they can be taken. Steroids were initially developed for the treatment of severely wounded burn and accident patients, and are exceedingly successful in that regard. However, as is often the case with success, steroid usage has been distorted to encompass the unintended purposes of both physical aesthetics and athletic performance enhancement.

It is because of these truths that the impact and allure of steroids in our society have become so far reaching. For these reasons, Steroid.org was designed to be used not only as an informative educational tool, but also as a proactive weapon against the illicit use of anabolic steroids.

We strongly encourage teens and adults alike to contact us with any and all steroid-related questions, whether about the content of this site or on the subject in general.

Thank you, and welcome Steroids .org.
