How much will you bet me that the definition of steroids in this article includes andro, which until a couple of months ago was completely legal and available for purchase at Wal Mart, Walgreens and GNC.

In teenage girls, the side effects from taking male sex hormones can include severe acne, smaller breasts, deeper voice, irregular periods, excess facial and body hair, depression, paranoia and the fits of anger dubbed "roid rage."

Oh, baby!

Let's see...thin with a flat chest, cystsic acne and a beard...or a few pounds overweight. Tough decision, isn't it?

'Way back when, when I was a young girl...'

When I worked out and competed (for a short time), the other girls (petite ones) on my team were on Andro.

I have a bit larger body frame and bulked up pretty easily. I never needed Andro.

My ex-wife was prescribed a steroid based inhaler when we got stationed at Ft. Benning.

She is a lifelong athlete and this stuff basically evaporated what little fat she had left. She had a great set of abs and looked great.

Steroids also carry higher risks of heart attack, stroke and some forms of cancer.

I guess these girls aren't old enough to remember the East German women's swim team from the 70's and 80's. It was hard to tell they were women!

Everytime I think of girls on steroids, I think of that character, Vera the bodybuilder, that Jim Carrey used to do on Living Color.

Couldn't be the inhaler that did it. Inhaled corticosteroids are nothing like anabolic steroids. They are related to cortisone, which you've probably seen as an anti-inflammatory ointment. Corticosteroids are more likely to cause weight gain than weight loss and do nothing for muscle mass. They can also cause bone density depletion and immune suppression, but fortunately the doses in inhalers are low and are delivered locally rather than systemically, so the risks are much lower than with oral corticosteroids such as prednisone.

I could've gone my whole life not seeing that and been perfectly happy.
