Does consuming steroids leads to infertility in men?
Patient: hello, me and my partner have been trying for a baby for the last 7 months he is using anabolic steroids, last month i had a weird period my cycle is 26 days and bleed for 5 but last month it was only 2.5 days and very light not like my normal cycle i have had weird pregnancy symptoms for the last three weeks but it must all be in my head as i have read that you can get pregnant if your partner is using steroids please help any information well be great. thankyou Doctor: Hello,  Yes, long term steroids can cause impotence. You can ask him to slowly reduce the steroid dose and stop. Doing a ultrasound scrotum and sperm complete will help in diagnosis.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Take care  Regards, Dr S.R.Raveendran, Sexologist
