Side Effects: Side effects of Anabolic steroids include, but are not limited to: excess red cell division and clotting (stroke, blood clots to the lungs), prostate enlargement, testicular atrophy, pituitary disfunction, breast tissue development, sleep apnea, and mood changes. Its a real bad idea to take any hormone in excess of a physiologically normal value.

DIfficult question: You mention brand names of testosterone, thyroxine, and Hydrocortisone that are not available in the U.S. None of these is going to increase your height. Any side effects would depend on how old you are, how much of each drug you take, and how long you take them for. If you are concerned about possible side effects, please discuss the details with your doctor.
