Q: I plan to take shots of deca-durabolin performance enhancing steroid, 100 mg dosage continuously for 8 weeks to improve my muscle growth. What are the side-effects that I am likely to face? Is there any alternative/safer option that I can take?

A:It is dangerous to take nandrolone (Deca-Durabolin) for unapproved uses like body-building. There can be serious side effects including high blood calcium levels (that can result in many untoward consequences), liver disease. bleeding problems and above all impairment of spermatogenesis (formation of sperms in the semen) leading to male sterility.
