Although
women
are generally advised against steroids, there are some
steroids that can offer benefits to women with the least of side
effects. Among the drugs which are relatively mild and, therefore, can
be considered as women steroids are Primobolan, Winstrol, and Anavar.
Should women opt to use steroids to enhance their figure and look,
these are the top three choices for them.
Remember that
steroids
are derived from the male hormones (primarily testosterone), and thus
women do not tolerate steroids as well as men do. Although
women have naturally occurring testosterone in their body, any
significant increase can cause hormonal imbalance in their body. Such
imbalance can cause adverse reactions in women, resulting to
virilization
symptoms. These steroid side effects on women are oftentimes
irreversible.
Thus, women should closely monitor their steroid intake. Women should
not take
extremely
potent steroids. Also, they are advised to take more
conservative dosages than what their male counterparts are taking.
Women can suffer steroid side effects such as excessive hair growth
(hirsutism), menstrual stoppages as well as breast and clitoral
shrinkage. These side effects are of particular concern when cycle
duration is prolonged and/or dosages are excessive.
