hello everyone this is my first post ,
you may find it difficult to understand my english because it is not my primary language , sorry for that
first of all i don't tell anyone to take aas at any age , this is a completely personal choice and it is all up to you but i found its very necessary to discuss this topic
I have heard this claim more than once especially on reddit , and of course the redditors are the main reason for the spread of this claim
claim is simply " if you took steroids under age 25 you gonna stunt your brain development"
science of course has never made simple and dangerous claims like that
especially for the most complex organ in the human body
and of course we can simply refute this claim based on simple scientific evidence
( all sources at the end of the topic )
1-based on the latest scientific evidence, the brain reaches full maturity at 30 not 25 , so if the claim is correct everyone who took steroids under age 30 has stunted his brain growth and of course this is complete nonsense .
2- there is no scientific evidence that steroids can stunt your brain at any age , and this impact was never observed in any steroid user , and never been claimed by any scientific community .
3-the prefrontal cortex, does not reach "full maturity" at any particular age (e.g. 18, 21, or 25 years of age) ( for more check the sources )
4-some steroids may have a impact on mental health indirectly with long term use in high doses , and this can happen at any age not at a particular age .
but we have got here some questions that we need to be answered by those who making this claim
1- what about all the pro athletes,actors,bodybuilders who took steriods under age 30 or even under age 25 like arnold , cutler , the rock , john cena ,silvester, dolph lundgren are their brains now are underdeveloped ?
2- what is the symptoms of "stunted brain" ? i mean how do we know that someone has stunted his brain development due to aas usage ?
3- can you provide to us one case for a ass user that has stunted their brain due to use of steroids ?
4- bodybuilders are the most users of aas even in a very young age with high dosage and for very long time why the "stunted effect" was never observed in their brains ?
5- what are the specific parts in the brain that are prone to stunt due to aas usage ? and after how many cycles ? and what doses ?
the only thing for sure that can stunt your brain completely is the steroid subreddit
I hope you guys find my topic useful
thx everyone

remember guys, extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence
the only thing for sure that can stunt your brain completely is the steroid subreddit
