Contrary to popular belief, Anabolic steroids are most commonly used by "gym rats" for aesthetic purposes, as they increase strength, muscle size and mass. Only a small percentage of users are athletes who use them for their performance enhancing properties.

Anabolic steroids come in a number of types and forms. The two most common types are oral and injectable. Oral steroids usually come in a capsule, pill or liquid form and are swallowed; the main problem with orals is that they can cause extensive liver damage among other possible side effects. Injectable steroids are the most common form; they are usually oil based and are injected directly into a muscle (usually the glutes) with a syringe and needle. Unlike orals, they do not cause liver damage but there are still some possible side effects.
