Abstract
CME Educational Objectives 1. Recognize which patient populations are most likely to abuse anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS). 2. Identify and understand the frequently underestimated adverse symptoms of AAS. 3. Become familiar with ways patients avoid detection of AAS use. Although anabolic-androgenic steroids were widely used by elite athletes as early as the 1950s, it was not until the 1980s that anabolic-androgenic steroid abuse began to spread beyond the elite athletic world and into the general population. Because widespread anabolic-androgenic steroid abuse is so new, many clinicians and researchers are not nearly as familiar with this form of substance abuse as they are with other, more venerable drugs.
