ROID Rage

Heard this term but what causes "Roid Rage" ?


My personal opinion is that it's an excuse used by people. There is some evidence to suggest with superphysiological levels of testosterone or certain steroids (ie tren) that increased aggression can occur. If you're undergoing HRT 'roid rage' should not be an issue.
 
its a term made up by the media. why is'nt the Mr. Olympia a blood bath? why do the small percentage of idiots who claim roid rage hit girls or target those that appear weaker? the best is when they puch walls or holes through windows and doors. its nonsense! trust me.
 
there is no such thing as roid rage....that is made up by the media.....there are idiots that need an excuse for stupid things they do......... oh i killed this guy...."roid rage"..... oh i ran over a class of kids "roid rage"..........
 
My HRT doc blames so-called Roid Rage on out-of-control estrogen produced in males on un-supervised bodybuilding steroid cycles.

I don't think it's an excuse. When I tried a full tube per day of
Testim (doctor's direction), it turned out to be too much for me,
and it made me very aggressive, easily angered and it totally scared my
wife.

I know I can get TRT that will be better managed and have better
results than applying synthetic testosterone.

Roid Rage might be an excuse some men use, but I know for me it
was a reality for about a week till I stopped using it.

You do realize that the testosterone in Tesim is the same exact molecule as that made by your body, right?
 
Yes, Testosterone will increase a man's aggressiveness. This agressiveness can come out in many forms....competitiveness, assetiveness, concentration, dedication, anger, violence.....etc etc. HOW it comes out is the choice of the individual in question. In some cases there is no control because that person has no self-discipline for the pent up anger inside.

Some do use it as an excuse to act like a bigger dick....but they have to have been a dick in the first place because T won't turn you into something you're not.

mranak, Testim is synthesized from soy. I know that it is considered "bioidentical", but if my owns balls didn't make it, it's not the real thing. Bioidentical does not mean "non-synthetic".

i see what u mean and understand.. i'm the say way... but when u look at it h20 is h20.... the test structure is the same if it's made in the body or from soy......... there are certain exceptions but not in this case i don't believe....

Unless you're talking about hCG by injection, you'll look long and hard for TRT that doesn't employ synthetically-derived T.


If you are seeking the most "natural" therapy . . . to me, the synthetic T is more "natural." hCG is a hormone that is normally not "naturally" present in an adult male, while exogenous T is a synthetic analog that is virtually identical to the "natural" hormone.

If Testim contained testosterone that came from a clone of yourself instead of soy, it wouldn't make any difference. So you might as well stop using the word "synthetic", because it is irrelevant.

...and it is therefore the real thing in my book, but lets not argue over this particular semantic.

The best phrase to describe testosterone not generated by your body is exogenous testosterone.

But you're right, there can be a significant difference in the results. Take me for example. When I rely on my body's natural production of endogenous testosterone, I feel like crap. But using exogenous testosterone, I feel good.

I thinking feeling good is the bottom line. I will continue to use "synthetic" for T that is synthesized from soy though, but you're welcome to ignore my posts if you find my view offensive.

For purposes of our discussions, I find it to be a meaningless adjective, except for the possibility of creating a logical fallacy: some people might think that usage of the word synthetic implies that the testosterone molecule is different when it is not. The logic is, why else would you use the word. But it is nevertheless a synthetically generated molecule, so I cannot claim that you are wrong.

I will feel free to ignore your posts if I desire, however; thank you. And also if I feel that some person might be mislead, then I will feel free to clarify.

High levels of estrogen can deffinitaly increase aggression. Alot of guys have been saying this for many years. .. I'm not sure what Roid Rage means or what everyone else thinks it means but if it means losing your temper because of the roids .. well,of course it's possible.

That is what it means becoming very agagitated with feelings of anger and topped off with anxiety. And most of this is caused from the converslon into high E2.
