Steroid use: I'm sure you know that most doctors don't think steroid use is good for anyone. That being said, steroid refers to a group of chemicals that have similar structures, but very different effects. Testosterone is a steroid (male hormone) but so is estrogen (a femail hormone.) non prescribed steroids can contain many different steroidal chemicals. You never know what you're getting.
