The best defense is that you do it because you need it. At this point you probably do need it. Unless you want to come off and be cool with low-medium testosterone.

It’s hard to justify it when you are also getting cosmetic results from it. This is why I waited 16 years to do it. I didn’t want the stigma associated with steroids. When I finally had what I considered low testosterone, I said screw it and have been on since. I wish I didn’t have to be. I would gladly go back to when I was 23 and my test was in the high 800s.

Now I think that if you are experiencing negative side effects (like anger, mood swings, hair loss, acne, high blood pressure, etc.), especially those that affect her, then she is going to focus on what she deems as unnecessary and dangerous; steroids.

So the solution, I think, is to consistently show her that you are not affected in negative ways and that she is safe with you. You have to understand, steroids have been vilified so much by the media and society, it’s no wonder that people are going to respond negatively when they find out you do steroids.
