One time : Shot should not be major issue. If symptoms occur follow with your PCP

No: One shot would not cause those problems, but continued use could cause acne, aggressive behavior, reduced sperm count, overproduction of blood cells, and even liver cancer. It does NOT make your penis bigger or increase sexual performance. Do not keep using it.
