Steroids are derivatives of testosterone, the hormone that regulates your body functions. There are mainly two ways of taking steroids; oral and injection. Oral steroids are available in for of pills that you can take orally. The injectable steroids are available in forms of injections, jabs, or shots, which are injected intramuscular.
Steroids are lawfully available through a medical prescription. They are often given to those with impotency or lack of androgenic hormone testosterone. They are also recommended to patients with AIDS and cancer. On the other hand, they are used illicitly by several bodybuilders and athletes as a fast method to get power and muscle.
Bodybuilders use steroids in both forms, oral and injectable. Injectable steroids are longer lasting as compared to their oral forms. Injectable steroids are administered in an intramuscular way in order to avoid quick blood level changes. Injectable steroids are divided into added categories, those that are very long-lasting and those that last for a shorter time. In recent times, the use has transferred to the later class i.e. short-lasting or water-soluble injections.
