Some young people were found to be using the injection to boost their physical endurance during a recent police recruitment. Such injections are unhealthy for overall health. According to experts, this increases the risk of heart disease and impotence. Steroids are taken to preserve stamina during all of these tests because police recruitment tests require candidates to run several kilometers along with other physical tests.
Doping or using steroids or drugs while competing in sports, however, is illegal and punished. Under this, the National Anti-Doping Agency of the Indian government prosecutes the athletes. A career can be destroyed by using just one steroid. If these injections are used to increase stamina, there are risks of life-threatening illnesses like heart disease.
According to the study, consuming anabolic androgenic steroid-containing powders in excess or defying medical advice greatly raises the chance of developing heart disease. In some extreme circumstances, it also significantly raises the risk of heart disease and heart attack. If evidence of drug use is discovered during recruiting, strict action may be taken against candidates right away, according to the sources. A five- to seven-year ban is permissible, according to the law. A lifetime prohibition may also result from drug or steroid use.
