Question

What are the harmful effects of doping in sports​

Answer 1

Explanation:

These are the substances that have both anabolic and androgenic properties. ‘Anabolic’ means ‘tissue building’ and ‘androgenic’ means ‘masculinizing’. The anabolic properties may affect accelerated growth of muscles and bones while the androgenic properties may affect development of male reproductive system and secondary male sexual characteristics such as hairiness and deep voice. The anabolic androgenic steroids can be derived both endogenously (natural) as well as exogenously (synthetic).
