If you use steroids they can make you:

If a pregnant person uses then it can cause a miscarriage (baby dies) or the baby not being born alive (still birth).


SO WHATS IT LIKE?




There are loads of different types of Anabolic steroids.
Some of the more popular brands are Dianabol and Sustanol.
They copy the male hormone testosterone and come as a tablet or as a liquid.

They can be swallowed or injected. If you use steroids orally (swallow) they can stay in your system for several weeks. If you inject them they can stay in your system for several months.

There are reports that they are both psychologically and physically addictive.

Anabolic steroids are a prescription only medication. If you supply them they become a class C drug.

STEROIDS

THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT!!!




Some athletes use Anabolic Steroids to help them to train harder and recover more quickly after exercise. Body builders may use them to help build muscles faster.

But both still have to train hard to get what they want. A body builder still has to eat all the right things and lift heavy weights, the steroids do help them but cannot just give them results.

The use of certain steroids is banned and can cause a ban which can wreck a persons sporting career.

"If a pregnant person uses then it can cause a miscarriage (baby dies) or the baby not being born alive (still birth)."

The big problem is that steroids really mess up the way a persons body works. Look in Top Facts to see all the different parts of the body steroids can affect if they have not been prescribed to you for a specific reason.

It also really affects the way you feel. People can get really angry and violent, this is known as roid rage. Once they have calmed down they aren’t sure why they got like that. They just can’t control the way they feel.

Some reports say steroids do not actually do anything for some people that use them and it is all in their mind that the drugs are helping them.
