Hi, I am an IFBB pro bodybuilder. I agree, his comment was completely out of line, and nothing irks me more than the phrase “drinking the koolaid”. I’d like to mention that small steroid cycles that are properly executed aren’t likely to cause much damage at all, especially something as simple as testosterone and a bit of dianabol. Yeah, he may tank his HDL and raise his LDL in the short term, and his liver enzymes may rise depending on dose/duration, but that is only temporary if he’s taking the proper precautions. As for the testicular atrophy, his testes will be fine as long as he does a post cycle therapy and stays off for a while. Not defending him at all, just mentioning because most doctors I have met know very little about anabolic steroids and exercise physiology.
