N2  - In the Netherlands an estimated 20.000 people use anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS). - The use of AAS is particularly common in regular visitors to gyms and fitness centres. - AAS are usually synthetic derivatives of testosterone with both an anabolic and an androgenic effect. - AAS have many side effects like liver damage (oral use) or infections (intramuscular use), which can be explained partly by the androgenic effect and partly by the manner of use. - Many of these side effects are only reported in case studies and have not been systematically investigated.<p />  <p>Language: nl</p>
