Not just general use ie once maybe a year. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's not true .. it depends on which type of steroids you are using Steroids should be taken only for medical therapeutic reasons!Steroids should be used if and only if there is no other effective treatment option available .. this is due to the serious steriods side effects. Some doctors may give you steriods all the time for a treatment ... this is because the doctors wanted to earn more with steroids. Doctors don't usually use steroids for themselves. So next time if a doctor wants to give you a steroid treatment, ask him for other treatment option.  I'm a phamacy undergraduate and my advice is that to prevent steroids whenever possible. There are still a lot of unknown side effects for steroids. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spawn_syxx9 1 Report post Posted November 18, 2004 It's not true .. it depends on which type of steroids you are using Um actually it is. All steroids that have been tested for the human body do not have serious affects unless prolonged use. If the usage of hormones or steroids not meant for the human body are used, then of course they will have abnormal affects. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
katagirl3000 0 Report post Posted November 20, 2004 well, usually when someone wants steroids to work they are taken for long term use. what would using steroids for one day help? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spawn_syxx9 1 Report post Posted November 26, 2004 Very good question. No the usual amount of steroids taken is from around 2 monthes to maybe 3. enough to have bad effects, but not the long term. Anyone who does use them for long term use either is an addict or a serious body builder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He used what they cal "Animal Stack" which is basically a different type of steroid but he double his size and doubled what he benched within a month it was crazy except he finally quit the animal stack when he started crapping blood, yes blood. Thats sick, one reason to stay off the juice guys, if you wanna get buff do it the right way, dont hurt your body sp u can look good for a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spawn_syxx9 1 Report post Posted December 6, 2004 I am assuming that you are right but at the same time, they should just legalize it and then tax it like cigarettes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
