Steroids
People who abuse Steroids are doing more than helping themselves look or perform better; they are in some cases causing permanent damage to their bodys. Steroids are becoming increasingly popular among male teenagers.There are some medical uses for them such as delayed puberty, impotence, chronic wasting, anemia, and osteoporisis. Use for causes other than diagnosed medical problems can cause serious health problems.
The media and government talk about how dangerous steroids are but man poeple who have used them say that they have had no side effects. So are they?? And what are they?? Steroids are a class of steroid hormones related to the hormone testosterone.They increase protein synthesis within cells, which results in the buildup of cellular tissue (anabolism), especially in muscles. Anabolic steroids also have androgenic and virilizing properties, including the development and maintenance of masculine characteristics such as the growth of the vocal cords and body hair. The word anabolic comes from the Greek anabolein, "to build up", and the word androgenic from the Greek andros, "man" + genein, "to produce".Some health risks can be produced by long-term use or excessive doses of anabolic steroids. These effects include harmful changes in cholesterol levels (increased lo-density lipoprotein and decreased high-density lipoprotein), acne, high blood pressure, liver damage, and dangerous changes in the structure of the left ventricle of the heart. Some psychological symptoms can include violence, mania, and psycosis, hypomania, and depression. http://www.isteroids.com/
Chemical structure of the natural anabolic hormone testosterone, 17β-hydroxy-4-androsten-3-one
Chemical structure of the synthetic steroid Methandrostenolone (Dianabol). 17α-methylation (upper right corner) enhances oral bioavailability.
Mental Side Effects: Reports of roid rage started in the 80's. A 2005 review determined that some, but not all, randomized controlled studies have found that anabolic steroid use correlates with hypomania and increased aggressiveness, but pointed out that attempts to determine whether steroid use triggers violent behaviour have failed, primarily because of high rates of non-participation. A thirteen month study performed in later in 2005 proved that severity of psychiatric mania depends on the level and severity of the abuse of the substance.A 2008 study on a nationally representative sample of young adult males in the United States found an association between lifetime and past-year self-reported anabolic-androgenic steroid use and involvement in violent acts. Compared with individuals who did not use steroids, young adult males who used anabolic-androgenic steroids reported greater involvement in violent behaviors even after controlling for the effects of key demographic variables, previous violent behavior, and polydrug use.
There have been studies done on the relationship between steroids and depression but they have been inconclusive for the most part. There have been reports of serious depression in teenage users but little systematic evidence. In a study on male rats they determined that according to the dose they can be addictive. Three recent studies have looked at anabolic steroid users for evidence of an increase in aggressive behaviour. In the first (Bahrke et at., 1990), a comparison of 30 male current anabolic steroid users, 23 previous users and 40 nonusers failed to demonstrate any significant difference between the three groups with regard to aggression/hostility. In the second (Choi et al., 1990), three anabolic steroid users and three non-user controls were monitored over several months oftraining incorporating two cycles of drug use. Levels of aggression in the steroid users were higher at all times than in the controls, and also increased significantly during periods of anabolic steroid use. In the third (Yates et al., 1992), psychological testing showed higher ratings of aggression in 12 weightlifters who were either currentlyusing anabolic steroids or had used them within the last year, compared to 25 weightlifters who reported no previous anabolic steroid use.
