Steroids after gastric bypass. Is it safe

[predc804]

Does anyone know if it is safe to use after gastric bypass. If so where can i get an un-bias opinion?

What is your experience with weights, and stats.

I don't think the issue would be the gastric bypass per se, but rather your underlying medical condition. I am assuming you were obese. What are your stats now, do you have high BP, high cholesterol or any other underlying medical disorders which so often accompany obesity? I am not being judgmental, I hope you are getting success from the bypass, and the loss of weight down to Ideal BW by any non drastic means generally results in health benefits, so congratulations.

As many more knowledgeable people on this board will tell you, AAS are not quick fixes, are not useful when you have a high body fat % (there is some dissent on what this number should be) and not if you are not already in reasonably good cardiovascular shape.

AAS in general can have bad effects on your BP, your cholesterol, your liver (orals) and obviously throw your normal hormonal regulation (the HPTA) out of whack.

So basically, the question is, are you healthy enough and in the right position to even consider them, and have you done your due diligence to read about their proper use and post cycle recovery.

So...list your stats - ht, wt, age, approx. bf%, workout experience, goals and
if you have any medical issues list that and I will recheck this thread.

100% why I asked.

I'm guessing you have no reason to be taking AAS, as just about anything you do in the gym would yield results.

^^ yeah, I was thinking and typing my reply probably just as you posted #2. I thought I'd be the 2nd message posted here.

you wont be able to even come close to being able to eat nearly enuff after that kind of surgery.. you get most of your nutrients thru oral medication after GBS. so i would say its a total waste of time
