Anabolic Steroids and the Athlete: Counseling patients about risks and side effects.

J A Geddes.   

Abstract

Anabolic steroid use by amateur and professional athletes and body builders is common. Patients may be using these drugs to enhance muscle bulk or athletic performance. An informed family physician comfortable with the topic can counsel patients on risks and side effects. This article reviews findings, offers recommendations, and discusses whether physicians should agree to monitor users.
