Has anyone taken steroids?

Question

If so what is your opinion on the matter? Good or bad? Did it work for you? Are you experiencing any health related side effects?

this is for building muscle mass.

Answer 1

I have taken about every anabolic steroids on the market. The gains were trully awesome. I have gained as much as 35lbs in 12 weeks. Strength gains were even better. Bench 455lb, lat pulldowns 325lb, squat 525lb, preacher curls 175lb, and shrugs 710lb. Now, the side-effects: water retention (goes away after cycle), tendonitis (goes away slowly, but does go away), joint aches (from using Winstrol, goes away after finshing them), shrunken testicles (goes away after cycle with a couple shots of HCH or with time) and quicker temper (have to realize why your temper is quicker and control it). As for actual health problems, I haven't had any. You can have problems with your liver if you take oral steroids (Winstrol, Dianabol, Anavar,etc.) for long peroids (over 8 weeks) and/or in high dosages. heart problems, tendonosis, gyno (***** t!t), and high blood pressure. All of these problems are due to high dosages or long cycles (over 12 weeks) or lack of planning. You need to have Nolvadex on hand during any cycle to fix the gyno problem. Steroids shouldn't be taken by people younger than 25yo or by idiots with a$$hole personallities.

Answer 2

Not for a body building experience but, for medical reasons I have had steroid injections. They threw me into clinical depression. Very tough stuff.

Answer 3

I had to take them for a medical condition but it made me thirsty all the time so I told the doctor I would rather experience the effects of the condition then of the steriods.

Answer 4

I took a steroid pack my doctor prescribed to help my body stop doing what it was doing to make me sick. It made me feel a little better, but it really really increases your appetite, which is pretty bad.
