A man, Dr Sina, has taken to his Twitter account to warn builders in Nigeria on the use and abuse of steroids for muscle building. According to him, the users risk libido and infertility issues.
I know my DMs will probably explode after this thread.
I got to know about this dangerous practice which is common among some Nigerian Body builders, Bouncers and some Gym enthusiasts
I doubt they know the dangers.
Please read and share.So I was at a function, while trying to navigate my way. the bouncer walked towards me
I got scared for a moment because he was hunky & I thought with all that 50 packs & weapon what was he up to?
I definitely didn’t violate any law. so a part of me said Keep calm which I did.
Next ..Are you the Bearded Dr Sina. I said Yes. He said he was a fan & was glad to meet up. I blushed.
He seemed worried. His worries were he had being trying to have a child for years but it had been difficult
Recently Libido had dropped and had been growing Breasts. Somewhat.
After series of questions, I stumbled on the culprit.
He was on Steroids. TESTOSTERONE to be precise
He said it was a thing amongst bouncers & muscle men, they used Testosterone in building muscle looking all buffed up.
He was surprised I didn’t know it was a thing.
Now here’s what happens
TESTOSTERONE is the Male sex hormone which is produced by the Testicles (Balls).
It is responsible for all the Male looks, sexual prowess, hair growth, muscle bulk development, voice change and more.When people take Steroid to build muscles what happens is the body recognises that Testosterone is plenty in the system
The Balls feel; Oh, so much Testosterone, so I don’t have to work again. I can go sleep & take a Holiday.
Since the Balls aren’t working they start to shrink.A list of Dangers with the use of Testosterone:
– As Balls shrink risk of low sperm count , infertility increases
– Female sex hormones goes up so he starts to develop breasts,
– Erectile problems, increase Acne, stretch marks (since the muscles are really stretching big time).
Abuse of these steroids increase the risk of Hypertension , Diabetes, Liver damage
A lot of Cancers are associated with its use from Kidney cancer, Prostate cancer
Also it messes the mood from anxiety, aggression, anger to depression to mental problems.
The funny thing is that these things are very much available over the internet & being abused
Yes, there are medical reasons Doctors prescribe Testosterone for patients.
But testosterone should not be a drug anyone will play with in the name of building muscles and looking buff.There is a craze for Men to meet up with standards of looking heavily Muscular
I do hope we can share & let those using these Steroids see the dangers associated with its use
Before you kill yourself that your muscles aren’t Big, be sure your inspiration isn’t on steroids
