Welcome to Steroids.org!

We are confident you will find the wealth of information provided to be invaluable in your pursuit to understand these powerful and often misunderstood anabolic hormones. We have provided numerous tools and information that will answer a host of questions. We will explain exactly what anabolic steroids are, how and why they are used, the effects of a positive and negative nature and so much more. We will show you how side effects can be managed, how they can be avoided and even delve into information that so many are unwilling to touch. We will even go as far as to provide all relevant findings without the emotional bias that often accompanies such a discussion. You will not find any spin but rather only the truth.

Among the informative resources:

  • History & Point of Origins
  • Where do anabolic steroids come from? 
  • What is an anabolic steroid?

These are common questions many have, and often those who believe they have the answer could not be more misinformed. Synthetic in nature, these are not foreign substances to the body but merely synthetic hormones that the human body already produces. It is common for anabolic steroids to be grouped with recreational drugs in certain circles of discussion, but we will find the two groups share nothing in common. We will also find anabolic steroids are nothing new. In fact, the first batches of testosterone were available for commercial sale appeared in 1937.

Who is using Steroids & Why? 

It is a common misconception that steroid users are primarily low life athletes and violent bodybuilders who live on the fringe of society. This is the common perception and is evident by the media reports and by the way steroid users are portrayed in movies and on TV. These individuals are often viewed as highly immoral, selfish and often violent people, and commonly athletes looking for heir big break no matter the cost. However, the reality is far from the common perception. The vast majority of steroid users are not athletes. Nearly 90% of all those who use anabolic steroids, and some estimates have it as high as six-million in the U.S., are not competitive athletes. Such individuals are every day gym rats looking for a healthier and better looking body. They are not teenagers, and they are not low life individuals. In fact, the average age of an anabolic steroid user is 31 and the stats often show such individuals represent the very best in society.

Side Effects

Anabolic steroids carry with them possible side effects, this cannot be denied. The problem with the discussion is that side effects are often discussed as if theyre guaranteed, and as an added bonus many impossible side effects are commonly stated. Further, it is very common for the side effects to be grouped together into a one size fits all category. The problem with this way of thinking is that the term anabolic steroid is a very general term; it is as general as the word food. The side effects associated with a particular anabolic steroid will be dependent on the steroid in question. Granted, there will be a lot of overlap between the different forms, but we cannot group them all together. We also cannot imply the probability of side effects to be assured. In fact, most healthy adult men who supplement responsibly will not have an issue of concern.

Steroids & Women

This is a topic very few want to touch, and if they do its often done so in a way that makes very little sense. Anabolic steroids can be quite harsh on the female sex. This isn't all that surprising when we consider anabolic steroids are based on the primary male androgen testosterone. Women who supplement with anabolic steroids will open themselves up to possible virilization symptoms. These symptoms can be disastrous as their masculine like promoting effects can damage a woman's femininity. However, this does not mean women cannot supplement with anabolic steroids safely and without such ill-effects. In fact, you may be surprised as to how many women supplement with anabolic steroids for the same reasons as men, and many do so without sacrificing their feminine nature. Yes, it is more than possible and you will find the related information here.

Steroids & Teens

The arguments made about the evil effects of anabolic steroids often surround their use and teens. There is no way to deny it; adolescent use should not be undertaken as such use will be extremely harsh on an underdeveloped body. It is often said that steroids may prematurely fuse growth plates, but there's no proof this can actually occur. However, we do know without question adolescent use can damage an underdeveloped androgen system, and often irreversibly. The next question and really the only question of any worth, is steroid use among teenagers a big problem? If so does it in anyway justify the prohibition of anabolic steroids among adults?

Anabolic androgenic steroids are powerful hormones indeed. There are seemingly countless forms and they are often used for therapeutic purposes. Unfortunately, many physicians, due to the hysteria that has surrounded them, often fear them. We say this is unfortunate as their use could be beyond beneficial in so many settings that are currently found lacking.

As for individual use of a personal nature, outside therapeutic treatment, this is where we will find the vast majority of anabolic steroids. It is here we will also find the biggest problems, not in terms of ill-effects of a physical or mental nature but of those surrounding legality. In places like the U.S. anabolic steroids are controlled substances, and here we will find the strictest of laws. This has created a new class of criminal; most commonly an adult man with a family who is simply living an every day life like everyone else. These are issues that need to be discussed and you will find very few are willing to touch them unlike steroids.org.
