Question

select the correct answer.
steroid use can have several physical consequences. what effect can the use of steroids have on men?
a. deepened voice
b. enlarged breasts
c. increased facial hair

Explanation:

Steroids can disrupt the hormonal balance in men. When men use steroids, it can lead to an increase in estrogen levels (due to the body's response to the excess testosterone - like steroids). Estrogen is a hormone that can cause breast tissue growth (gynecomastia), resulting in enlarged breasts. Deepened voice (A) and increased facial hair (C) are more associated with normal male hormonal (testosterone - related) development or in some cases with anabolic - androgenic steroid use in a way that mimics normal male hormone effects, but these are not the adverse effects related to hormonal imbalance in the context of the question as much as enlarged breasts. Enlarged breasts in men due to steroid use is a well - known adverse physical consequence.

Answer:

B. enlarged breasts
