Abstract
The aim of the study was to show a lasting modification of the lipid profile and atherogenic indices by the abuse of anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) by a amateur bodybuilder. This study reports a case of a 27-year-old non-competitive bodybuilder with severe abnormalities in lipid profile and atherogenic indices. He used anabolic androgenic steroids and had no other risk factors for heart disease or associated risk factors. After some educational lectures, he decided to continue his training without using anabolic androgenic steroids or any illegal ergogenic drugs. Lipid profile and atherogenic indices returned to normal values in the third laboratory test performed five years after her last cycle of AAS. Abusing anabolic androgenic steroids can promote increased risk of cardiovascular disease, a trait that can persist for many years after even after discontinuing anabolic androgenic steroid use.
