You bet.
I don't know about cancer, but it will cause testicle shrinkage. And if you stop using it, you'll actually start to grow breasts.
This is because the steroids act like testosterone in your body, and so your body stops producing it. When you stop using the steroids, no more testosterone. All that's left is the little bit of estrogen that's normally there.
There are numerous life-threatening side effects too, but i cannot remember what they are. Look it up on wikipedia if you want more info.

Yes other side effects. But you know what they say you become smaller down there by taking steriods. Lifting weights is the best way to get buff.

Yes - it can cause cancer, sterility, and a bunch of other side effects.
Lyle Alzado the football player died from steroids. My Mom's best friend's nephew (yeah - I know) was John Matuszak - he also was a pro football player who died from taking steroids.
If you were thinking about it - don't!

Yes steroids have been linked with a greatly increased risk of cancer. It also plays havoc with your emotions and you can become very aggressive.

Definitely. In fact, anabolic steroids can also cause you to develop feminine secondary characteristics in addition to changing your moods dramatically.

You could go into a "'roid-rage"......which is a loss of control of angry emotions. Also, the steroids tend to shrink your genitals.

Yes! Steroids can shrink your testicles, make you moody, give you acne, it's just horrible. Steroids shouldn't be done.
