Understanding Anabolic Steroids, HGH, and Creatine: Benefits and Risks

Anabolic steroids are controlled substances that mimic testosterone, promoting muscle growth and secondary sex characteristics. Human Growth Hormone (HGH) boosts testosterone production, increasing muscle mass while reducing body fat. However, both steroids and HGH can have severe side effects, including pain, swelling, aggression, diabetes risk, and potential tumor growth. Creatine aids muscle mass gain and energy production but may lead to heart issues and kidney damage. It's crucial to weigh the benefits against the risks before considering these substances.
