anabolic steroids
Can you use testostrone cream instead of steroids for asthma?
No, steroids used for the treatment of asthma are not the same as testosterone. Asthma attacks often have two phases, the initial attack then a recurrence a few hours later. Using the wrong type of steroid (like testosterone or anabolic steroids for sports/bodybuilding) in the place of an inhaled corticosteroid (albuterol, etc) could result in death if either attack were serious enough.
In what sport are steroids mostly used?
Data on anabolic steroid use in sports is hard to come by as they are banned in most sports. But there are many different types of steroids so they are used in a broad spectrum of sports. Steroids that help with endurance can be used in sports like distance running and swimming. Steroids assoisciated with strength will be used in sports such as weightlifting and wrestling. Others are used to increase muscle size and mass, these would be used in sports like bodybuilding. So in answer to your question anabolic steroids are commonly used in many sports and are not more highly assosciated with any one sport in particular.

Why can you get a steroid shot but you cant take steroids?
First, the anabolic steroids used in sports and bodybuilding are entirely different from the corticosteroidsused in most medical treatments (although anabolic steroids do have some medical uses).Second, anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids can be very effective for treatment of acute conditions. However, sustained use usually brings on serious side-effects, which can be worse than the original problem. For that reason, steroid prescriptions are limited in duration. (This is essentially the same rationale behind the medical use of narcotics; they are very effective for treatment, but harmful in the long-term).

Why can't girls and boys compete against each other?
They can and in some cases they do.Many sports separate men's and women's events, because testosterone (which men have a lot more of than women) is an anabolic steroid: it produces extra muscle mass and strength and extra bone density and strength. So, all else being equal, men tend to be stronger than women (a woman who lifts weights can certainly be stronger than a man who doesn't, but if both of them work out to the same degree or neither of them work out at all, the man will probably be stronger). Men also tend to be taller than women, and that can be important in some sports (basketball being a good example).Before puberty, there's little difference in testosterone production, so combined sports at the elementary school level (kickball at recess, say) are more common; there's less inherent "unfairness" involved. In contrast, by junior high (when sex hormone production has started) there are very few combined sports.

Creatine is NOT in any form a steroid. It's possibly that certain sports organizations do not allow Creatine. Creatine is a naturally occurring substance, and can be found in red meat.
