Good to see that rash down there is just from the drugs and not that nasty chick the other night. (J/K)

Yes, good post. The only thing that is discussed regularly is gyno. Good to know there is a lot of other stuff that can get you, lol.

the ones that really scare me are menstral irregularities and premature manopause....

anger and sleep disorder is what i got

i was wondering about the big hump growing on my back

I simply dont believe some of the things on that list

personally I prefer the term 'possible' side effects.

Granted, everything you list is indeed something that can be related to AAS, but let's face it, how many 'recreative' users actually suffer that much side effects from AAS?

Personally I don't think there are many things left on this world that don't have any possible serious side effects. Hell, even food does. As long as you keep your dosage to a normal level, I don't think you will suffer to badly.

In most cases AAS will just worsen what was already a problem. If you are prone to something, AAS might speed up things or worsen 'm. I don't think however, at normal dosages, it has that many true side effects with are strictly correlated with just the AAS itself and I believe those would occur even if you don't use gear.

Just my personal and humble opinion. In no way am I saying it is all that good to take gear, neither am I saying it can't be damaging. I'm just saying it's not a sure thing, only a (Small?) risk. We all take risks every day, willingly or not. It is indeed something to think about, but let's not exaggerate.

I cant believe nobody laughed at my joke... because I was laughing my head off. I'm so funny lol

My last cycle I got some extra hair growth, there were 2 patches of hair on the back on my arms right on the triceps, I shaved it, so far it hasn't started growing back.

Thanks for the reminder lest we tend to forget.

Good post. Every just thinks gyno is the problem. There is alot of others.
