What do steroids do to women?

cafenervosa Posts: 94 Joined: 2004/03/02	2004/05/13, 10:40 AM I know this is a natual bodybuilding site, and don't worry I'm IN NO WAY considering ever taking anything like steroids or testosterone. However, I'm a pretty big fan of Oxygen magazine and notice a rather disturbing similarity in a lot of the hard core female body builders they feature in the mag. They all have the same facial features! Anyone else ever notice this? They all have wide spaced eyes and very square almost jowl-like facial features. It looks like their nasal passages have spread. They all look like drag queens!! Is this a side effect of testosterone or steroids (or are they both the same thing, I don't know)? The magazine never, ever promotes steroid use, or even mentions any kind of supplaments, creatine, aminos. It only give straight diet and workout advise. However, I can't believe that most of those women look that way on accident. What's going on? Anyone know?

Heavy doasges of certain analbolic steroids can cause significant unwanted physical, as well as mental, changes in women; this is obviously in addition to the increase muscle mass, density, and strength. I know what you're describing, though, and it is also a side effect of the GH products that many are using today as well. -------------- Michael Trample the weak; hurdle the dead!

It's produced in the pituitary gland, and influences growth of cells, bones, muscles and organs throughout the body. It's production peaks during your teenage years. So, knowing what it's for, you can see why it affect someone that way when they take too much - more than the body can use. -------------- Michael Trample the weak; hurdle the dead!
