Steroids making you look older.

Yes test and mast will definitely age you due to their oxidative properties. Most guys who take AAS will look older and bloated

Looking back at pictures tho, it’s never the bloat but just general aging/ “more masculine” of the face. Even from this past summer until now my wife has said it has changed a lot and I’m running very very moderate amounts of primo and test, total under 650mg/w

Anyone else notice that using gears makes your face look older? I’ve physically aged 10 years in the span of 6 months. It actually makes you look uglier I can’t explain it (It dosen’t bother I just found that there is a clear difference in photos).

Opposite. I didn’t start them till 27. 47 now and regularly get asked if I am 35-38

650 mg/wk is an interesting interpretation of "very very moderate amounts of primo and test"

I mean considering it’s a blast for me I would say 400T/250P is a pretty moderate dose.

What would you considerate “very very moderate” for a test and primo cycle?

Yeah, that works for a blast. I wasn't sure if you were talking about TRT, TRT+, or what at first. Mea culpa

I wonder do people really need to take these obscure amounts of AAS? I’m not saying you as your dosing is completely normal but I see some people running 1-2 grams of heavy compounds all year round. Can’t imagine how they function on it. There’s a young lad in our gym and he showed me photos on his phone of like 3-4 different vials of compounds. Not saying what he was running but let’s say he was combining deca and tren.

This. I still look like a fkin teenager even though I’m fkin 30 ahah it really depends on your lifestyle n genetics way more than it does AAS (ofc if you’re running grams of gear n lots of DHT derivatives or tren it might be a quicker thing that accelerated it but still a genetic thing more than an exogenous chemical one)

I think they’ve just accelerated my maturity if that makes sense. The bones in my face, eyebrows, cheekbones, jawbones have gotten “thicker” if that makes sense. I also look fuller in the face. Not a bad thing I ain’t complaining.

Fair enough that’s a general effect from AAS if used for enough time in a row it will have its own masculizing effects like you mentioned jaw thickening etc… the fuller face look instead is imo more water retention as I get that too but yeah most of that stuff is either neutral or positive, idk how some ppl freak tf out just cos they get some moon face like shit is easily reversible
