Steroids: The Brain`s Response
... Steroids are able to alter the functioning of many organs, including the liver, kidneys, heart, and brain. They can also have a profound effect on reproductive organs and hormones. Many of the effects of steroids are brought about through their actions in the brain. Once steroids enter the brain, th ...
