Frequently Asked Questions

What are performance-enhancing drugs?

Performance and image-enhancing drugs (PIEDs) include substances used to improve muscle size, strength or physical appearance. These commonly include anabolic steroids, testosterone derivatives, SARMs and peptide-based compounds.   Many of these drugs are obtained outside medical care and may be used in high doses or combinations.

Why medical monitoring is important

Non-prescribed steroid use can affect several parts of the body including:

• Heart and cholesterol levels
• Hormone production
• Liver function
• Blood pressure
• Fertility
• Mental health

Long-term use at high doses has been associated with cardiovascular disease, liver injury and other health problems.

Early monitoring allows doctors to detect issues before they become serious.

What happens during a consultation

Your doctor may discuss:

• substances or supplements being used
• training goals and medical history
• symptoms such as fatigue, libido changes or mood issues
• cardiovascular risk factors
• fertility plans

We may also perform:

• blood pressure check
• health assessment
• pathology testing

Can you help if I want to stop steroids?

Yes.

Doctors can provide support for people who wish to stop using performance-enhancing drugs, including:

• health monitoring
• managing symptoms after stopping
• hormone testing
• referral where required

Can you prescribe anabolic steroids?

No.

Our doctors do not prescribe anabolic steroids for bodybuilding or performance purposes.

These medications are approved only for specific medical conditions and are not recommended for performance or aesthetic enhancement.

Our role is to provide medical monitoring and health advice.

Confidential care

All consultations are completely confidential, just like any other medical appointment.

We understand that many people hesitate to discuss steroid use with doctors. Our clinic provides a private and respectful environment to discuss your health.

Blood tests and investigations

Depending on your situation, your doctor may recommend tests such as:

• full blood count
• liver and kidney function
• cholesterol profile
• blood sugar
• hormone testing (testosterone, LH, FSH)
• cardiovascular risk assessment

These tests help monitor changes that can occur with steroid or hormone use.
