Do Anabolic Steroids Cause Fungal Meningitis?
The deadly fungal meningitis outbreak has been linked to contaminated injectable solution of the corticosteroid methylprednisolone acetate. It has been a tragedy for the families involved.

I am just trying to learn and have not and may not do steroids.

What is Highest Steroid Dosage the Body Can Actually Use?
Bodybuilders talk about taking too much steroids and how there comes a point at which the androgen receptors become ‘overloaded’. For example, if one were to take 5 different steroid compounds all at high dosages, how much can your body actually use? I understand that everyone would be somewhat different but theremust be a point of diminishing returns?
David Millar, Pharmacological Puritanism and the Anti-Doping Movement
The Lance Armstrong doping scandal has created an unprecedented degree of hysteria over the use of anabolic steroids, erythropoietin (EPO) and other performance-enhancing drug (PEDs) in the sport of professional cycling.
