Maybe not the best place to post this but oh well, I've been researching steroids seriously for the past year and have known the basics on its mechanisms of action for years. The usual argument for it being haram you will see is you don't know how it will affect your health, and there are serious side effects, but all health risks can be attenuated with a lower dose and side effects with pharmaceuticals. Taking them correctly can massively improve quality of life. Thoughts?
