  1. Steroids: Busting the Biggest Myths Believe it or not: Guys, “The major clients for what’s being produced out of the illicit labs churning out illegal steroids are the gym bros who want to get stronger and bigger in a short period of time. These guys are very familiar with the gathered “Advantages” of Steroid, but they are rather oblivious-, misinformed or deceived about the possible side effects of these chemically laden “Short-Cut”. Here are the top Rumors about Steroids and we will examine whether they are true or not:

  2. Rumor1: Steroid Shrink size of Testicles. • True. When you start taking steroids to improve your testosterone level, it tosses your natural hormones balance. Finally the body stops the production of testosterone naturally. • Your body is like a feedback mechanism, once it detects high level of testosterone coming from an artificial source, it turns the plug off. So when you start providing your body testosterone from drugs, your body mechanism turns off the natural production of the hormone. This leads to smaller testicles.

  3. Rumor2: Steroids will change the size of Penis • False. If any of your mate who is bragging about increase in size of penis after taking roids, let us guarantee you that he is bluffing. Steroids do not have any impact on your penis size.

  4. Rumor3: Steroids leads to baldness • Sometimes False. Baldness is determined on the basis of your genetics. When you start taking artificial hormones using anabolic steroids it cannot lead to baldness. But it can speed up the process of baldness , if there is an excessive abuse of steroids. If you have a tendency of male pattern baldness, steroids can definitely speed up the process, but it does not have the same effect on every one.

  5. Rumor4: Steroid reduces good cholesterol • True. Excess use of steroids lead to decreasing level of HDL aka Good cholesterol. The decreasing levels of good cholesterol can increase the risk of heart attack and other heart diseases.The reason of this is still not clear, but doctors have guessed it may be due to the way steroids affect liver and metabolism.

  6. Rumor5: Steroid can decrease fertility • True. Steroid surely can harm the production of testosterone production and can also damage the sperm count. • Men have high level of Androgens which cause sperm production in the testicles. If we start injecting artificial drugs in our body our body starts responding by turning down the natural production of sperms.

  7. Conclusion • So if you are trying to improve your fertility and health, make sure that you stay off these artificial methods to reach your fitness goals. Eat clean, stay healthy and keep pinging us with your health and fitness related queries.
