Steroid scenes in South AfricaWith steroids reaching every part of the world, South Africa was not an exception. This beautiful country is slowly showing signs of being grappled with steroids as there are more and more reported cases of steroid use.

It is a well-known fact that steroids have been in the worlds of professional sports and bodybuilding for long and if one thinks that South Africa was left out, he was probably wrong.

From SteroidTimes.Com:

So let me start by dispelling a popular myth or rumour that i often get asked about:  STEROIDS ARE NOT LEGAL IN SOUTH AFRICA! That said, steroid are not a highly policed area in the drug market, any ‘busts’ or the like generally come from bodybuilders or dealers that are involved in manufacturing or importing other illicit drugs such as cocaine, exstacy, khat or crystal meth. The reality is that there are just not enough resources in South Africa to control such a small segment of the drug trade, they have bigger fish to fry.

We have a range of anabolic products from black market to legitimate available to the athlete or bodybuilder. Many pharmacies are quite happy to sell drugs such a steroids, growth hormone, thyroid hormones and insulin ‘under the counter’ as long as cash is paid, the better you know the pharmacist, the better price you get. Those products that are not available from a pharmacy can be obtained relatively easily from your entrepreneurial gym dealer who will generally have at his disposal a range of imported or local underground brands.

The growing success and popularity of steroids have clearly suggested that all measures to curb the use of steroids have been waste as the number of steroid users has increased, and not decreased during the last few years.
