My wife is a former professional bodybuilder who developed hypertension from using steroids. They have also caused aortic stenosis, high venous blood pressure, extremely distention of her veins and a variety of cardiovascular problems. One day she participated in a research study on the response of blood pressure during heavy weight lifting in hypertensives females. During heavy leg extensions her pressure was 375/360.

I only used steroids on prescription, to treat Vasculitis. But all steroids are dangerous.
