    For clarity. Anabolic steroids are class C drugs, which can only be issued by pharmacists with a prescription. It's legal to have anabolic steroids for personal use. They can also be imported or exported, as long as this is carried out in person. This means they can't be posted or delivered by a courier or freight service.

    If there's 1 million steroid users in the UK means that 1 out of every seventy people in the country are on it. If you factor out all the children and senior citizens that's quite a startling amount really.

    • @biglollol
      @biglollol 6 місяців тому +40

      Sounds like statistical bogus. Source is a The Guardian article that is from 2018.
      The article states:
      *_"Public Health Wales estimates there are about 350,000 male users aged 16-64 who visit needle exchanges across England, Wales and Scotland."_*
      While also implying: *_"But it points out there are many more who do not use exchanges as well as those who take steroids orally."_*
      Furthermore there's another mention about a number of users:
      *_"The national IPED info report is considered the most in-depth study of usage. Joe Kean, who is the lead recruiter of steroid users for the report, said he was confident there were about 900,000 users in the UK."_*
      The link to the IPED report is broken and it states that Joe Kean *"was confident there were about 900,000 users."* Key word: was confident (assumed).
      The 1 million is just a number used for a sensational title. I'm pretty sure the number lies much closer to 500,000. Which is still a lot. But clearly not a million.

      Yea and watch the whole video for more honesty about it. “Had my nipples cut off” is not something young guys think about when getting on.
      Same guy went on to say “I’m on TRT for life.”Honestly one thing I wish everyone was more honest about. Saying you can manage it and get off one day is one thing, but getting off gear is awful. Those months of having super low T after being super high T affects you in a really bad way, and your androgen receptor sensitivity and T-levels may never fully recover.

Definitely have seen many complications from poor administration technique, poor drug quality and even those ending up on intensive care from heart /liver failure.

    I think people take steroids too lightly here in the UK because they are so readily available, which also means it's easy to know someone who's already doing it.
    I researched and contemplated for years all while training and competing naturally before I decided to take steroids, but I was fully aware of what consequences I may have faced as a result.
    I'm not on TRT for life, but I made peace with that BEFORE I started. As long as you are making an informed decision, the information is out there, but as one of the guys in the video said, train for years first. You're going to be training anyway and if you can't stick it out naturally for five years, you have no business taking steroids.
