AAS (Anabolic/Androgenic) Steroids can cause testes to shrink because artificial testosterone is introduced into the body which causes the testes to stop producing natural testosterone. This is called testicular atrophy, usually after someone stops using the steroid the body will start to produce natural testosterone again after this testes should return to normal size.
