Certain types of hormones, androgens, do have the ability to deepen the voice. This is because they act like testosterone in the body. This is the hormone that triggers the tracheal cartilage and vocal chords to grow. As the vocal cords grow, it causes them to vibrate at a lower frequency, and thus produce a deeper voice. The increase in the thyroid cartilage is why the Adam's apple develops.

At what age does a boys voice deepen?

There is not an exact age for what age boys voices deepen, because we all go through puberty at a different time. Approximately, boys voices deepen around eleven through around fourteen. That still doesn't mean their voice is changed and is not going to still change, because it could still get deeper. Also, a boy's voice can change sooner or even later. I know this because there are a lot of boys in my grade (Sixth grade) I've noticed that their voice deepened.

When you go through puberty, your voice deepens. Men's voices often deepen up to an octave, while women's voices usually move about three tones lower. After puberty and well into older adulthood, some people's voices may change, but not everyone's. Men's voices tend to go up in pitch.

In sport what does the use of steroids do?

The use of steroids in sport increases muscle growth, which can aid in endurance and strength. they give the user a strong increase in muscle content, with no apparent effort on their part. Some steroids, known as Anabolic steroids, are banned by most major sports organisations and are illegal outside of medical use, which is why the better steroids are only available in the 'Black Market'. Steroids can lead to many extravagant side-effects, such as damaged, low-pitched or croaky voices to loss of hair or balding.
