How much muscle gain do you lose after stopping steroids?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not clear: I am not certain what you are asking. Corticosteroids can cause muscle weakness what we call steroid myopathy. Some people use Anabolic steroids to build up their muscles but this is not an fda indication and which may lead to side effects especially over the long term.Caution - this is in the caution range. Not advised.
