my cousin is 38 years old and began taking anabolic steroids when he was 18 at 135lbs,over the course of these twenty years he has cycled most commonly stanozolol,dianabol,testosterone enanthate,testosterone cyprionate,nandrolone decanoate(deca),chorionic gonadotrophin,anadrol,sustanon and many others that he has more less just tried out,he also has taken pro-hormones from the same age,over these 20 years he has of course cycled off but has never actually stopped taking steroids and he has gone from 135lbs to 228lbs with 7% body fat at 5'10" now the thing that seems strange to me is he has NEVER taken any thing to counter act side effects like clomid etc...yet the only side effects he has ever expierienced are increased aggression and slight testicular shrinkage while on cycle,but nothing long term(he goes to a doctor who knows he takes steroids and gets checked once a month and has never had a single bad report,except at the end of dianabol cycles his doctor wil advise him to come off of it.overall his liver,heart and kidney functions are all normal and his natural test production is considered good for a man his age) he says that he just takes small doses of the steroids he is on while on cycle and keeps his cycles fairly short and makes sure his off cycle periods were at least as long as his on and that is how he stays safe...i couldnt beleive this,however i also have an uncle who follows the same rules and has been using for 9 years with no side effects...does this seem strange or is it rare?

if you notice, your cousin/uncle follow great precautions and probably take small dosages(which is recommended for all those individuals who start doing them)...which is a good way to be while doing steroids....I am surprised your cousin doesn't take clomid as you said or another drug to block the estrogen conversion....But it all depends on how much he's taking...the dosages among professional bodybuilders, went for some drugs from 5mg to over 100mg over last 30 years...so at 5mg, perhaps if your uncle/cousin take this much, there are not a lot of sideeffects, especially if they cycle rarely...and are overall healthy....
you can get a lot of information on this subject at www.steroidology.com
You cousin also made a mistake of taking steroids at such a young age...he was still growing and maturing....your cousin reminds me of myself, I was 130 @5'10 at 16-18, when i started training consistatly and eating better, I went to 6'0 210-215@6-7%bf...and I feel better about my results for not takign any shortcuts....steroids are only a possible option for those training for well over 5 years, and probably 10, who have stagnated or possibly reached their natural limits...at 18, your cousin didn't even come close...so yes he's pretty lucky not to experience any serious sideeffects, I'd assume your family has good genetics....
