I had good experiences when I used them deca, 250, winstrol, primo, but Im in a different place now. It depends on what someone's goals are and they're reasons for doing it.

Misconceptions: They make your dick shrink. Wrong. If they are abused the adrenal glands tell the brain the body is getting enough testosterone, the brain then tells the testicles not to produce as much or even stop. So its possible for testicles to atrophy. They can enlarge penis size; its not uncommon for doctors to prescribe test to men with erection problems.

Your going to get bitch tits (gynecomastia) while they can contirbute to a rise in estrogen in the body (you need it for test receptor sites) if its not abused its not an issue.

Your muscles will turn to flab when you stop. This can happen reguardless. They actually dont turn to flab they just atrophy with nonuse. You will lose size though. WHilte most steriod have the downside of you losing your gains when cycling off, there are some such as Parabolin where you will keep your gains after coming off.

After the age of 35 men begin a down cycle of life. They're levels of testosterone, growth hormone, IGF-1, meletonin, and many others decline. THey go through the male version of menopause: "andropause" Under the guidance of a doctor with such experience; therapeutic cycling for 6-8 week cycles one or twice a year can do good things. This with with monitored labwork looking at a basic chem panel, hepatic functions, and age-related hormone panels if you can afford them.

The downside is like with anything; if its abused alot of bad shit can happen.

However nothing can take the place of proper eating habits (6 times a day), hard training, proper amounts of rest. (It takes most: unless they've trained themselves, 3-4 hours to get into the theta stage of sleep and generally only there for 2-3 hours if lucky; this is where most growth hormone is secreted after the age of 21)
