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, an increase in estrogen levels (due to the body's attempt to counteract the excess testosterone - like effects of steroids) can lead to enlarged breasts (gynecomastia). A deepened voice and increased facial hair are more associated with normal male hormonal characteristics (and in some cases, excessive androgen - like steroid use might further enhance these in a non - harmful way in the short - term, but the key harmful effect here is related to breast enlargement).

Answer:

B. enlarged breasts
