It works. Every single athlete you have ever seen is on it. Any woman you see in a bodybuilding competition is on it (no a woman doesn’t have 2% bodyfat and 18 inch arms naturally). Every single celebrity is on it. No, Zac Efron doesn’t naturally have 20 inch arms. It’s difficult to quantify risk because the people who die are always celebrity coke heads. They tend to die during binge sessions where they’ve slammed 5g of cocaine and had 12 shots. Steroids increase BP so you need to manage that and you can’t be doing things like cocaine or drinking. The more you take, the worse your BP. That and the cocaine will be the killer. I’m yet to see anything obviously harmful about testosterone. Some of the drugs that have branched off it have signs of harm but that might be due to increased strength or changed structure. People are talking about your penis shrinking or whatever. Your testes do shrink but it’s not permanent. You need to make sure all traces of the drugs are out of your body before the system will start back up and that’s where people get stuck. Some drugs have metabolites that can last years. Testosterone isn’t the same but still takes time depending on the half life of the form. Ironically women have the easiest time of it. Their hormone system doesn’t care about testosterone so they can go on and off whenever they want. The downside for women is the androgenisation. They start growing facial hair, deepening their voice and enlarging their clit. That’s a dealbreaker for most women for obvious reasons so a woman would need to be seriously committed to this. For men, having a thicker beard and masculine features is a good thing so that’s fine. It will accelerate your rate of hair loss though. It affects your personality. You are happier, braver, more focused and more aggressive. You feel like the leader of the pack no matter how pathetic you are. That confidence might be good or bad for you. You’ll be a lot more likely to approach women because you are continously aroused. You may be more of a cunt. In summary, like all things it is a trade-off. You might die, but you’ll be the best you could ever be at physical sport. If you don’t care about sport then that’s not a great trade. Some people do drugs at weekends and kill themselves for parties. Lots of people make trades. This isn’t a casual trade to make, you need to think it through.

The confidence thing is way overblown, very few people actually report that. The myth is perpetuated exclusively by people who have never taken steroids. Personally I feel exactly the same on almost any compound, the exception being tren which made me incredibly irritable. When I first tried them I thought I’d been sold fake gear because there was literally no difference in feeling compared to being natural. After being in the community for half a decade I can tell you that this is an extremely common experience.

> Any woman you see in a bodybuilding competition is on it (no a woman doesn’t have 2% bodyfat and 18 inch arms naturally). Not to nitpick, but this actually isn't true. A lot of these women don't run testosterone, but do run PEDs like Anavar (oxandralone) or SARMs like Ostarine that have a very high anabolic-androgenic ratio. > Their hormone system doesn’t care about testosterone so they can go on and off whenever they want. Their hormone system does, in fact, care about testosterone. The difference, however, is that women naturally produce an infintesimally small amount amount of testosterone compared to men, so post-cycle effects and treatment protocols will be vastly different.
