Glad you stopped: Everybody i've spoken with who's done a lot of Anabolic steroids has regretted it. Apart from some stretching of your skin, and perhaps some embarrassing times, you're unlikely to have trouble. It should not prevent you from being a father or a good husband or friend -- while you're on the drugs, all these may be impossible.
