Androstat Side Effects

Androstat, an anabolic steroid supplement made of the compound androstenedione, is a vital precursor to testosterone production. Anabolic steroids can be detrimental to your health, and using them can produce many devastating side effects.

  1. Liver Toxicity

    • The liver's main job is to process and break down different compounds that enter the body. When a strong substance (such as Androstat) is ingested, the liver must work harder and enzymes become elevated to a higher than normal level. Because the body has to struggle to break down these compounds, long-term liver damage is possible.

    Acne

    • One of Androstat's most common side effects is excessive acne all over the body. This occurs because of increased levels of testosterone and elevated levels of activity in the sebaceous gland. These two factors, combined with the presence of outside bacteria, lead to clogging of the pores and result in the production of acne.

    Inhibition of Fat Production

    • One of the most noticeable side effects of using Androstat is the drug's ability to stop the production of fat particles, while at the same time building lean muscle. However, the increased stress that it puts on the vascular system can make it a dangerous choice. Long-term internal problems, such as kidney failure, are a strong possibility with continued use.

    Aggression

    • One of the most well-known side effects of steroid use is the development of increased aggression, or "roid rage" in users. Elevated levels of testosterone, combined with the other chemicals present in the supplement, can lead to violent behavior and even psychosis. Personality play an important role in whether or not increased aggression effects an individual. For example, a person who is prone to violent behavior before steroid use is more likely to be affected than someone who is normally passive.

    Warning

    • These side effects can come from using any anabolic steroid, not just Androstat.

      If you experience any of these side effects, seek professional medical attention immediately.

      If you are under 18, steroid use can stunt your growth pattern and lead to any of the other side effects listed above.
