Three years of resolute weightlifting had not gone as planned for this scrawny 18-year-old. But it was 1980 and a legal prescription for the magic elixir, anabolic steroids, was just $20. Now he would transform himself while away at college and return home with trophy-winning strength and a body like a Greek god--a Charles Atlas magazine ad come to life. That didn't go quite as planned either. This revealing memoir recounts an athlete's experiences with performance enhancing drugs at a time when the public and law enforcement knew little about them. Venturing into the "steroid underground," the author used and sold them, was featured in muscle magazines, went under a surgeon's knife and faced interrogation by a federal marshal.

The author describes the burgeoning public health crisis evident in the increasing use of anabolic steroids (AAS) by non-athletes. He compares this phase of the AAS crisis to that of the opioid crisis several years ago when all the signs of crisis were apparent, but overlooked and unaddressed. He points out that currently at least 4 million men, women and teens are using AAS, solely for cosmetic reasons and uninformed of their dangers. The author, Dr. Thomas O'Connor, a board certified internist with a sub-specialty in men's health and anabolic steroid recovery, describes the physiological and psychological factors contributing to AAS addiction by 15-30% of users. He warns of the many serious AAS-related short and long-term medical issues-- including the "hallmark effect", Anabolic steroid-induced hypogonadism (ASIH) which every user will experience, and from which some users will never recover. This physician-athlete who has gained the trust of the powerlifting world through his articles in major men's health and wellness publications, including the encyclopedic "Anabolics" by William LLewellen, describes safe and effective medical protocols which support AAS cessation and recovery by managing the difficult and often hazardous withdrawal phase. Analyzing the demographic, political and psychosocial factors influencing the increase in use of anabolic steroids, Dr. O'Connor challenges the media and professional and Olympic sports to be more responsive and responsible in addressing this crisis. His message to governmental agencies is that AAS use should be addressed as a public health issue rather than primarily a law enforcement issue.

A gripping, uncensored story about a muscle-worshipping culture, this provocative, harrowing biography uncovers the dark and dangerous world of steroid use and drug dealing.

Anabolic Steroid Abuse - Understanding the Dangers and Preventing Abuse - Basic Study Guide 2014. Anabolic steroids are man-made substances related to male sex hormones. Doctors use anabolic steroids to treat some hormone problems in men, delayed puberty, and muscle loss from some diseases. Bodybuilders and athletes often use anabolic steroids to build muscles and improve athletic performance. Using them this way is not legal or safe. Abuse of anabolic steroids has been linked with many health problems. While some may have gotten their muscles through a strict regimen of weightlifting and diet, others may have gotten that way through the illegal use of anabolic-androgenic steroids. "Anabolic" refers to a steroid's ability to help build muscle, and "androgenic" refers to their role in promoting the development of male sexual characteristics. Other types of steroids, like cortisol, estrogen, and progesterone, do not build muscle, are not anabolic, and therefore do not have the same harmful effects. The National Institute on Drug Abuse.
