Steroid Use in Men: Risks to Libido and Fertility
Summary
Men who use steroids may face temporary sterility, testicular shrinkage, and the onset of female characteristics. Testosterone, which is produced in the testes, is crucial for sexual organ development.Article Body
Men using steroids risk experiencing temporary sterility, testicular shrinkage, and the development of female traits. Testosterone, the key male hormone produced in the testes, drives sexual organ growth.The pituitary gland in the brain regulates testosterone levels. When levels are low, the gland releases Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing Hormone (LH), prompting the testes to produce more testosterone. Conversely, if testosterone levels are high, FSH and LH production decreases, resulting in reduced testosterone levels. This maintains hormonal balance.
When men use anabolic steroids, which mimic testosterone, the pituitary gland reduces natural testosterone production in the testes. Prolonged steroid use keeps the testes inactive. This leads to decreased sperm production, with sperm cells often forming abnormally. Long-term steroid abuse can result in infertility. However, if steroid use is ceased, testicular function may return to normal. Prolonged abuse can lead to lasting sterility, diminished libido, and impotence due to permanent effects on the pituitary gland.
Men generally have 30% more testosterone, contributing to morning erections and a regular sex drive. Steroid use disrupts this balance, potentially leading to a loss of libido and impotence.
Steroid accumulation in the body can be metabolized into conjugated estradiol and estrone, both female hormones, resulting in breast development, a condition known as gynecomastia. This irreversible side effect of steroid abuse can worsen with repeated cycles. Aromatisation, a chemical process, converts some steroids into these female hormones.
By understanding these risks, men can make informed decisions regarding steroid use and its potential impact on their health and vitality.
