Proper ancillaries along with common sense and moderation take care of most of the side effects.. It's worth it to hear some input from others tho.

The number one is prison. I got lucky the only time I was caught. Its very scary.

 

[617ricky]

Which ancillaries take care of blood clotting which can lead to heart attacks and strokes?
I'm asking seriously cause I don't know, not rhetorically.

I don't think that's a very common side effect when someone is doing a little cycle.. But just a little aspirin would help that possibility.

Im with 617ricky on this one

Most of these are takin care of with responsible use - however there are always exceptions. And if you started out with high rbc, then decided to run a gram of eq - id expect you to have some problems, get what im saying?

Now who ever is posting in here please post what your cycle was and what anchillaries were being used.

Aspirin will probably prevent clots. If you already have them it's pretty much worthless. Other than preventing new ones.

the most common cause is excess red blood cells. get a blood test. hemoglobin and hematocrit. if you're high you're at risk for clots. no ancillary will help this. you need a series of phlebotomies to get you to normal range. after that maintenance phlebotomies every 1-3 months(whatever doctor orders)... you could also get some clotting times tested and see how quickly your blood clots. testosterone usually slows clotting times

routine blood donation should help?

Side effects of alcohol? Aas side effect are no more serious than legal drugs. Different people can react harshly to aas, just like any other drug. And some people get nothing but benifits.

Yes, ANY drug can be dangerous. If our body can't tolerate a drug, you shouldn't use it. And if you abuse anything your "playing with fire".

So if this is in the wrong thread, but no real side effects for me. I've had way worst side effects drinking alcohol.

 

[machola]

Excellent question. Maybe out of whack hormones can aggrivate pre-existing mental problems.

true but i was going a different way... maybe the guy was a psycho before he did aas. using aas is a risk behavior so it will attract certain types of people. i bet if you compared aas users to the normal population there is a higher % of risk personalities(alcohol/drug use, fighting, aggressiveness, impaired social skills, unstable lifestyle, depression, dangerous behavior, etc.) in aas users

Agreed Again

no

no one escapes the negatives. they may not realize it but they're there... do you think your testes are not shutdown when you take aas?

 

[BULK_CITY]

I don't know much about AAS but what I do know is enough for me to never take it illegally.

1- illegal (prison)
2- quality could be bad and you could get very sick
3- could fuck up your natural hormone/test lvls

I'm not opposed to taking it if you have low lvls and need some stuff to normalize, but my lvls are find so aas isn't an option for me at the moment

Not the wrong thread brother, like I said, keeping it real.

I just don;t want to pretend the negatives are not there. Obviously they are and people need to know what to pay attention to when they try these things.

the problem is people tend to use to high of a dose with AAS that's why they experience so many negative effects.a little can go a long way.

 

[GoneForFuckingEver8]

I think there should be a single thread where we talk about all the negative side effects associated with AAS. It does seem like people take it lightly and really play down the very serious problems that can occur with non medical use of steroids.

This could be a good place to put everyones collective stories and advices on the subject...Maldorf, BN, Pekkerwood, and anyone else who cares to contribute. I know there are other threads, but how about a big one that we can keep bumped to help newbies make good informed decisions on here.
Hell, even negative legal side effects would be good to have in here.

What do you guys think?

Prison
Addiction?
Testicular shutdown?
Pituitary shutdown (not sure about this one)
General HPTA disruption
Hair growth
Hair loss
Enlarged prostate
High hematocrit
Blood clots
Strokes
Heart attacks
Liver failure
Death

prison was at the top of your list??????

maybe you should rename your thread: KEEPING IT FAKE BASED UPON MEDIA HYPE AND STUPIDITY

Thank you all knowing one..... Everybody expirences the side effects, huh? Not everybodys natural test shuts down. There exceptions to every rule.

BTW, I get bloodwork done regularly. on/off Do you?

Please, save those questions for someone else. That's just a little insulting. Like I don't know what most people deal with
I'm not making light of the thread. It's by all means a very serious topic. Just don't assume every answer is black or white.

 

[machola]

Thank you all knowing one

no problem bud
