I would rather edge on side of caution when giving advice and this would be advising to take steroids at an age when your have fully developed and your HPTA as set its own pattern and its established its output, by shutting down a system what's not full matured or established its rhythm can cause problems.
Marcus, on top of this, how many of those kids whom allegedly recover with no issues actually ended up without any irreversable damage? I mean, kids don't get bloodwork done typically. They only cry when they grow boobs or lose the hair on their head.

On top of that for all the people who list pro-athletes who use roids at a young age as their justification were using false premises to base their decision. There is a huge difference between somebody like Arnold or Bonds juicing it up in order to perform at a higher level in their respective sports. Their lively hood and the promise of money and sponsorships depends on them being at the very best in their game. The average kid thinking about juicing is most likely never going to be in those guys positions so the benefits of the fame/money/top of sport don't exist for them, but the risk remains the same.
