Usage of Androgenic Steroids during Sports

Abstract

How Le*

The male hormone testosterone has synthetic derivatives known as androgenic-anabolic steroids (AAS). They have powerful physiological impacts on people that might improve sports performance. The majority of laboratory investigations, according to a study of the literature, did not look into the actual AAS doses that are now being abused in the field. As a result, those studies might not accurately depict the (unfavourable) consequences of steroids. The short-term use of these medications by athletes has been shown to improve strength and body weight, according to the scientific literature that is currently accessible. Strength increases of about 5-20% of initial strength and weight increases of 2-5 kg that might be explained by an increase in lean body mass have been seen.
