Some side effects of steroids injection There are many known side effects to steroids use both short term and long term. It actually depends on the type of compounds used as each compound exhibits different effects in the body. Some may report feelings of nausea, dizziness and fainting while may experience no side effects at all. On example is Robby Robinson, a professional bodybuilding champion who recently came out against the use of anabolic steroids. He claimed to have experienced nausea, dizziness, lightheadedness and almost fainted after his first injection of Primobolan.

Primobolan or methenolone enanthate generally exhibits milder side effects compared with other compounds. Some of those reported side effects were oily skin, acne, hirsutism and increased male pattern baldness. There is a possibility that reported side effects are not directly related to steroids use. It may just be effects of anxiety. Most people, even bodybuilders, have a certain fear of needles. Added to this, steroid users may not be comfortable with the idea of some foreign substance entering into the body.

There are of course real side effects to steroids injection such as coughing fits reportedly occurring after injection. This may be due to the rapid movement of the substance towards the lungs as transported by major arteries in the thigh or gluteal areas, the common sites for injection.

If you happen to experience any of this symptoms, then it is time to consider switching to orals or to re-consider taking any AAS at all.

From Knol:

It should be noted that many of the people who suffer from these mental side effects – nausea, dizziness, and fainting – may just be victims of panic. Many emergency rooms each year are filled with men in their 20s or 30s who dabbled with too many recreational drugs and convinced themselves they were having a heart attack. Very often, the mental image of our own bodies being pierced by a foreign object (the needle), our own blood dripping, and some foreign oil entering our system, may be too much for squeamish bodybuilders to handle. That new and unique feeling of having oil soak into a muscle group inside out body is exhilarating to some, but induces panic in others. If you are going to panic when you use injectable AAS, it’s time to either toughen up, move to strictly orals, or reconsider the use of anabolic steroids entirely.
