Thinking of using some kind of anabolic steroid for a month. Could just one months use be bad? Looking for feedback from those who have used them.

This thread will probably be locked soon.  No talking about roids. Smile 

Or maybe it should be turned into an anti-thread.  I've thought about it.  Dbol more specifically.  It's cheating and unless you're being watched by the careful eye of a physician, it's very very dangerous.  Back hair, cro-magnum forehead, back acne, strong muscles-weak joints, and tiny tiny testes?  Do you have to ask?

A month? Even a week of dosage can be enough to cause drastic side effects. Do not think about taking such substances until you have learned enough about them how they work, and how to treat your body post cycle.

Thisi s not the forum to learn about hte use of anabolic drugs. there are several other website with regular anabolic drug usersand they have lots of in depth posts you should read.
for example www.ironbodybuilding.com or www.muscletalk.com

How could a week dosage hurt you? Don't doctors give people steroids when recovering from certain illnesses?

Because you're messing with your body's natural chemical balances.  Roids is a drug.  Period.  Cocaine can get me pumped up...should I take it before I run?

Are you a Doctor? i think not. Hence your dosage will be taken in an uncontrolled environment.

I suggest you lay off the strong stuff. Stick to hard work for the time being while you learn more about anabolic steroids.

Doctors prescribe catabolic steroids not anabolic steroids. Big difference.

Exactly !

Athletes use anabolic steroids. These are a synthetic version of the primary male sex hormone testosterone. These enhance muscle growth and development and subsequent improvement of athletic performance. These drugs, however, are dangerous when used inappropriately and can result in a host of severe and often irreversible consequences including heart attack, stroke, liver tumors, kidney failure and serious psychiatric problems. Anabolic steroids have been associated with sudden death in athletes.


Catabolicsteroids used in the treatment of disease reduce inflammation and are quite effective at controlling this potentially life-threatening condition. Use of this steroid, however, requires careful monitoring by the physician with the lowest dose possible to control your disease.

Never have used Steroids but, did a cycle with PH's which is the next level down. I did it with an 8 week PCT and had no sides. Gained 2.5 pounds of solid muscle, ate like a horse. It was very important to me at the time to read and understand the workings of what I was taking along with the proper PCT. Unfortunately, my cycle started after the ban on Steroids/PH's otherwise I probably would have done another cycle during the year and if that worked out to my liking, I probably would have tried a cycle or two of steroids. Just my 9 cents.

PeaceSmile

2.5lbs of muscle in 8 weeks isnt that impressive.That amount of weight gain is very much possible WITHOUT PH's.

IThink it was his PCT that was 8 weeks.

How long was your PH cycle itself? 2.5 lbs is useless. I can gain that by eating an extra meal.

he jus ****in asked and wanted respectable opinions and feedback not bitching, pretty much steroids is definitly not the way to go at all, from what i understand if you take it for only a certain amount of time then stop using it your gains dont stick wit you that much, plus it messes your body up so incredibly bad that its not worth it, and you'll have problems with your body for not just months or a few years but forever, if it was only minorly bad alot more people would be doing it cuz its easier to gain **** wit it

Well I can tell you my short bad experience with them about 2 years ago:
 I was having a hard time gaining any muscle after going to the gym for a couple months 5'11 150 pounds, I figured there was no way I was gonna look like that guy, unless I get some pure hormones! I knew nothing about the stuff, nor did I care, I just wanted to get big and I'd do anything. So I got some pills, didn't know the how much was in it, I just took 1 every other day. Yea they make you go crazy and you feel really irritable, I broke a lot of stuff around my house because the smallest things would just make me snap. They ruin your social life if you can't control yourself around your friends and family. They pumped me up in the gym, I was like hell yea this **** is great! Then comes the funny part! I started bleeding from my asshole!!!! hahahahahah Yea I stopped and just the painful little whatever it was go away after like a month. It wasn't a hemmorhoid, I had one of those before, and it was comfortable compared to the open wound thing I had in my ass now, my face dried up and kinda peeled like a sunburn, I never had a problem with acne and bam my face looked like a pizza. And all this happened in a little over 3 weeks, so I would recommend don't touch them, stick with creatine

lol FNSkinny, sorry to hear about dat sh!tty experience... but yeah, I would not recommend using them unless you really know what you're doing. Personally if I ever used it and I ended up looking great... it'd always be in the back of my mind haunting me cause I'd feel like I cheated.. that's just me tho.

Well I'm not going to try to justify taking steroids, but when people calling it cheating its kinda dumb. Its the same way with cars, people use nitrous and get called cheaters, everybody can do it! Some aren't willing to face the consequences, whether its your engine or your body, some will do anything to get them over the top. But I'd much rather have the whole package, health, muscle, and a body that functions well and a body that I have control over.

True in a way... correct me if I'm wrong because I am still learning Smile, but aren't anabolic steroids illegal? Or is it just illegal in proffesional sports, or are there anabolic steroids that can bypass laws? I'm assuming they are illegal in the US granted you don't have a medical prescription... if they are in fact illegal... not everyone can get them, so comparing anabolic steroids to nitrous in cars isn't the best example. But I totally agree with you, feeling "cheated" is not even the most important thing to worry about while using steroids. Knowing you have a much healthier body is the true reward in not using them.

Edit: Just thought of something ironic and interesting... they refer to nitrous as "juice" in cars as well. Smile
