MUDr. Pavol Šimurka
Pediatrická klinika, Fakultná nemocnica Trenčín

The misuse of supporting substances with the aim to enhance athletic performance is known for a long time. Anabolic steroids count among these substances. Pediatricians must be familiar with current information on anabolic steroids to be able early to recognise effects of these substances forbidden in sport.

Keywords: Key words: anabolic steroids, adolescents, side effects.
