Addition to external links

http://st.eroids.com would make a good addition to external links section, as it shows perspective on the topic not captured in this article. The "insider's story", is just as good of a source when looking for an objective view, as the current, much more technical - but unconnected article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Errorid (talk • contribs) 10:06, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Have you read our external links policy? Tim Vickers (talk) 17:39, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Second graf of Anabolic_steroid#Routes_of_administration: "...it has more irregular prolonged absorption time and greater activity in propionate, enanthate, undecanoate or cypionate ester form." Should that be "regular" instead of "irregular"? Tom Reedy (talk) 20:07, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Kidney effects

"Kidney problems

Kidney tests revealed that nine of the ten bodybuilders developed a condition called focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, a type of scarring within the kidneys. The kidney damage in the bodybuilders has similarities to that seen in morbidly obese patients, but appears to be even more severe.[95]"

This sentence appears misleading. [95] studied 10 steroid using body builders who have severe kidney damage and noted that 9 out of the 10 had FSGS. It said nothing about the prevalence of kidney failure in steroid users. The sentence seems to suggest that steroid users have a high risk of kidney injury. [95] does not support that idea. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.34.207.79 (talk) 23:04, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

Anabolic steroids and testicles

In this edit, an IP editor removed text that appeared to claim that the androgenic and virilizing properties of anabolic steroids cause growth of the testicles, with the comment "I deleted (increased testicle size from the initial summary because they would normally decrease testicle size, as they mimic the effect of testosterone which inhibits hormones FSH and LH secretion which usually have a trophic effect on testicle size." I think the IP editor is correct on this, as steroids are notorious for this effect: see [1], or search for "steroid testicular atrophy" in general. -- The Anome (talk) 09:45, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
