A doctor has provided 1 answer
See details: What kind of steroids do you mean? Is it anabolic steroids (testosterone) or glucocortisones (prednisone)? If you mean prednisone, side effects include weight gain, bruisability, diabetics, infections, cataracts, poor wound healing, osteoporosis and fracture risk and avascular necrosis.
