Mark,

I've heard this from many people who had to take steroids as medication for asthma...does it stunt your growth?
Doing weights will stunt your growth if you do a big amount of them.
I infact stunted my growt by a few inches, because i started weights at 13.
Im not sure if steroids would, but it may.
Ive never read anywhere that it does so... there is the possibility it may. Although you shouldnt be taking steroids until you stop growing.

im a little concerned that medical health companies are being believed over scientific research.

medical health companies are still based on making money and advertising. therefore it is unlikely they will ever focus on anything negative about steroid use.

science is impartial and therefore reliable and has more validity.

my question is this, if you are a perfectly healthy young male, why would you need steroids?

the only way i can cut it is that the perferctly normal adult male wishes to be something he wasnt made naturally. So if we take the usual "bulking up" then yes steroids may push you to accomplish more - but there seems to be something not quite right with that. i would honestly not go on steroids because anything that is worth achieving when you are capable of doing so with a little more hard work, is worth the extra mile and not downing pills or having injections.

jesus, i just re read that...i should be an advertisement for anti drugs.
Hmmm the thing about steroids is, it doesnt physically make you huge.. It just repairs all your cells fast, which lets you work even harder instead of having a day off.
There is many bad listed side effect of steroids, which im very sure exist, but they would exist in people who have a genetic fault or are unwell.
Also it did state, healthy males..
people with cancer and tumours would die from it, because it speeds up the grow rate of both of them.

I believe that you should also do your own hard work, but its like every where else in the world, when people can find a way to be even more efficient with the same effort put in, they will do it, because its efficient.

I dunno im Pro steroids, i'd do them if i could get them.
But i wouldnt recommend them for every one and deffinately not for people who dont know what they are doing or just think " wow im gonna get massive".
I know a few people that take steroids and they are ultimately huge and i guess muscle appeals to me.
