Street names for steroids

Steroids are the synthetic reproduction of the natural male hormone Testosterone.  Even though Testosterone is produced naturally in the male and female body, it is made in greater amounts in males.  Testosterone is produces in the males testes, and produced in the females ovaries, and other surrounding tissues.  There are over 100 different types of steroids that have been produced, and every one of those needs to have a prescription to be able to take them in the United States.

There are 3 different ways that you can take steroids, and each way produces different results.  The first way you can take them is by injection, the injection is delivered right into the muscle that the person wants to effect.  Another way is by oral pill, this effects the overall body, these when taken to increase muscle size is taken in large amounts.  They use larger amounts because when taken orally the drug is absorbed though out the whole body.  The last means of exposure is rubbed on the skin,  this is done by using a gel or cream, there are other forms that use patches as well, this is rubbed on the area that the person wants to effect also.

Steroids are often used in a pattern where they take multiple doses of steroids for a certain period of time, stop taking them, and then take the same multiple doses again.  This is called cycling and is the most popular method.  Another way to take them is by using more then one kind of steroid to get a faster results, this was is called stacking.  People that do this believe that by using more then one they get a larger boost in muscle building then if they just took one of the drugs. 

There is one more way that people take steroids, this is where they build up the dosage to a certain amount and then slow start lowering the dosage until they are done.  This is done with gradually increasing the number of steroids, or the amount of steroids they take.  Depending on what they want for a end result will determine how much they take at the peak of the dosages.  Body builders usually take more at that time then someone else that don't want as much muscle growth.
