Is there any evidence or chance that doing gear for more than just your average cycle (frequency and/or duration) can effect you future kids? It does effect dna and rna replication right and also stays in your system and messes with all your hormones. I know it temporarily shuts down test production and loweres your sperm count but how about down the road say 3 to 5 years? Like the previous thread my future wife thinks that her kids will be negatively effected by gear usage. Any serios studies or thoughts out there? I didn't want to tell her but 20lbs, bloated face, zits on back, eating like crazy and she found a book kind of gave it a way, she isn't stupid.     | ||

To the best of my knowledge there is no evidence that AS use will negatively effect your offspring. Since Testosterone is a naturally occurring chemical in the body, I dont think it would be a problem if there was more of it. Its highly doubtful it would cause changes on the level of "passed on" DNA and RNA. If anything it might leave your offspring with slightly higher natural Test levels. Since Test levels have been directly related to intelligence, athletic abilities, improved immune functions, etc. what is the downside. Personally, I've said it before one of my sons was conceived during a cycle and at 8 yrs old he consistently scores above average in height, weight, IQ, pretty much everything. He's also hardly ever sick, while children around him routinely are. I'm sure others will have an opposing opinion, but mine is based on real evidence, not hypothetical guesses!!!! | ||

I ask this question last week, because me and my wife are trying to have a child. I was told by a few people that they have had kids while on juice and there kids are fine. I also was told it is very hard to have child while on juice but is possible, but n one said they had problems as far as it affecting there children. | ||

I've seen no evidence of this anywhere... and I looked through over 400 studies worldwide. (With the exception of ZEARALENONE which is so toxic you can't even touch it.) I can't see how you could make an argument that a naturally occuring substance like test could cause damage to your chromosomes that would result in birth defects. Some forms are a treatment for children, if your daughter would have the misfortune of carrying Turner Syndrome for instance, where her bones won't grow to an exceptable height and size, they will give her oxandrolone (with HGH) at age 9. It is also used by Jerry's kids with Duchenne MD. That's my opinion.......I could be wrong. |
