A member asked:
Can you tell me how much weight/muscle gain do you lose after stopping a prolonged use of steroids?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: If you continue working out you will fall to a little more muscle than you would have had without the roids. If you quit both you will fall off rapidly but the amount depends on an individuals baseline metabolism and can't be calculated in advance.
