When it comes to the argument against the relationship of steroids and teenagers, this argument is dead on the money; the two should never for any reason exist with one another. There are several reasons steroids and teenagers do not mix three specifically, and while two are facts the one used by the anti-steroid crowd has yet to be proven as fact, but there’s a decent possibility it may hold some truth. The argument is simple; anabolic steroids will stunt a developing body’s growth by closing growth plates prematurely. If this is true, it is a sound argument, but it’s nowhere near as damaging as the other two which are absolute facts.
When steroids and teenagers collide, this has a strong, negative impact on their natural androgen production which has yet to fully develop to its full capacity. Some teens will find supplementation enhances their puberty rate in an unsatisfactory manner, as well as lead to inefficient androgen production in the long run. To make matter worse, anabolic steroids appear to have a tremendously negative impact on the mental state of teenagers. Many teenagers often experience severe depression after discontinuing anabolic
steroid use; something that is normally not a problem for healthy adult men. For an adolescent, once use is discontinued his
testosterone levels will be low, very low, and low testosterone can cause depression in any man regardless of age; however, let’s remember what was discussed above. When an adult man discontinues use, he is doing so with an already well-developed androgen system, and as such his natural testosterone production will begin again. As you recall, there’s a good chance a teen has damaged his androgen production, and while his natural production may begin again it will more than likely do so at a rate that is unsatisfactory. Further, most adults who supplement with anabolic steroids understand you do not simply stop and hope for the best; that’s the last thing you want to do. Most adult men will do things to promote their natural testosterone production, to get production going again at an efficient level; this is a thought most teens don’t know they need to have, and as such is tremendously damaging.
I'm not trying to fight with anyone but I don't think a kid should be using, I waited till I was 21 and even that was probably to soon. This is just a little info on the subject and even tho you can't look like some of the jacked freaks at 19 without a little help you can build a solid frame without them, then think about what's to come when you do a cycle after you already pushed your natural level to the limit. I was 135 pounds when I started lifting at 5'9 I busted ass till I was 21 and I did just fine, I'll post a picture of me natural if you would like man so you can see what your body will actually do if you train and eat right... Hell you don't even have to eat 100% good at that age I know I didn't but I did eat to grow.
