Answer:

What athletes use performance-enhancing drugs? The practice often called doping in casual settings and by the media, is used by athletes at all levels and of all ages. In general, performance-enhancing drugs are any substances that are banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency, or WADA for short. According to numerous studies, the overall use of WADA banned drugs is around two percent across all athletes over the last year, with certain drugs, such as anabolic steroids, being used in greater numbers. According to the Annals of Applied Sports Science, high-performance sports see the greatest use.

Use of performance enhancing drugs has increased in recent years. However, this is in large part to the availability of more options, many of which feel safer for athletes than traditional drugs. While the idea of injecting steroids may have seemed off-putting to all but the most driven athletes, taking a supplement that can be purchased at any health store seems less risky, or even normal. And doing so is socially acceptable. As a result, up to 12 percent of teens, both athletes and not, are using substances to improve performance and appearance. While women using these substances as well, their use is more prevalent amongst men.

Although medical concern is greatest for teen users, that is generally not where the media focus. Instead, the media and the public at large are most concerned with doping in major league sports. Both Major League Baseball and the National Football League have seen the significant controversy in recent years related to players doping. In fact, the current conversation around the practice can be traced back to the revelation of steroid use in MLB players back in the late 90s to early 2000s. More than 24 MLB suspensions have been related to performance-enhancing drugs since 2005; on the NFL side, hundreds of games have been missed due to temporary suspensions related to doping.
