About the Health Information

• People are feeling more and more pressure to get the “perfect body” in a society where looks and social media have a big impact. This trend is leading an increasing number of young adults to dangerous shortcuts. One of the most worrying trends is the wrong use of medications and injections that make muscles bigger and improve performance. These drugs may promise fast physical improvements, but they often cause substantial, long-lasting harm to both mental and physical health.

  our multidisciplinary team works together to address both the physical and psychological consequences of such health risks.

The Illusion of Power

• A lot of people who attend the gym use these injections because they think they’ll help them get results faster, like lifting more weight, looking bigger, and feeling stronger. But what looks like progress is often only an illusion that can be deadly.

  Dr. Saravanan Manoharan, Orthopaedics Senior Consultant at MGM Healthcare says, “These drugs were originally designed for medical emergencies, like when someone’s blood pressure or heart rate is dangerously low.” “When taken without a medical reason, they speed up the body’s emergency response systems, which makes the heart rate go up, the blood pressure go up, and the muscles work harder.” It’s like putting your body in”fight or flight” mode all the time.

  Users may be able to push themselves above their limitations for a short time with this fakeadrenaline rush, but it costs a lot. It’s not good for the body to be in overdrive for a long time.

A System That Isn't Working Right

• It’s crucial to look at how these medicines mess with our neurological system to see how bad the damage is.

  Dr. Saravanan explains, “Our body works best when the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems are in balance.” “One gets us ready to act, and the other helps us relax.” These medicines entirely throw that balance off by overstimulating the sympathetic system.

  Because of this, users may feel frenetic, full of energy, and emotionally charged. But the effects go well beyond the gym. Over time, this imbalance may lead to serious health complications. such as:

  • An irregular pulse
  • High blood pressure
  • Hormonal problems
  • Anxiety and emotional instability
  • Damage to organs

Addiction, anger, and emotional problems

• The psychological consequences may be one of the most worrying side effects. People can easily become addicted to these medications, which can lead to a dangerous cycle of reliance.

  Dr. Saravanan remembers a 25-year-old bank worker who also taught gym classes part-time.”At first, he just took 30 mg. That dose didn’t work for him anymore, so he raised it to 900mg a day. He got so angry that he hit a friend and had to go to the hospital for mental healthcare.

  People who use it typically have symptoms including being irritable, not being able to sleep,mood changes, and being very restless. These changes in mood can disrupt relationships and make everyday life harder.

Short-Term Benefits, Long-Term Harm

• The first muscle strength may look amazing, but the effects don’t last long. When the drug wears off, you get tired, your muscles get weaker, and your body starts to depend on these drugs to work normally.

  Dr. Saravanan says, “Ligaments may not be directly affected, but muscle fatigue increases and mental health takes a big hit.” “When the mind is not stable, the whole body hurts.” The mind is in charge of everything.

Beyond Awareness: The Importance of Taking Responsibility

• Posters in gyms, warnings on social media, and even talks with health experts have all helped people learn about the risks of these medicines. But just being aware isn’t enough.

  Dr. Saravanan said, “People already know these drugs are bad.” “They look into everything,even the side effects of common drugs.” But they still get these shots in secret. What you need is self-control.

  Dr. Saravanan thinks that the real remedy is inside each person, even though society beauty standards and peer pressure are part of the problem. “Society can only show the way.” In the end, the person has to make the appropriate option.

A Last Word: Pick Health Over Hype

• You should never have to give up your long-term health to get a stronger, more contoured body. Drugs that make muscles bigger may work quickly, but they can have hazardous impact on physical and mental health

It's not a race to take care of your health. If you want to be in shape, do it the right way:

• stick to it, eat well, and get help from a professional. Shortcuts might cost you everything . When it comes to your body and psyche.
