Everything you need to know before you buy steroids in 2020 – 2021.
Two types of steroids exist. The first is catabolic steroids such as prednisone which is prescribed to counter inflammation and for other health problems like injuries and allergies. The other is anabolic steroids which were prescribed mostly for things like muscle wasting and anemia. These types of steroids are synethically produced versions of the male hormone testosterone. They have been tinkered with for almost 100 years.
Today, these anabolic steroids are mostly legally prescribed for hormonal problems, especially when a man cannot produce his own testosterone1, and in rare situations for females for the same reason. It is important to understand that non-medical use of anabolic steroids are on the rise by athletes and gym rats to give them an edge. To acquire most types of anabolic steroids you must buy them on your own through the black market (depending on your country). Also, I must note that even in countries where anabolic steroids are legally purchased over the counter, you still will not be able to find every steroid.
Anabolic steroids can take your fitness goals to another level. You will never be able to get as strong naturally as you can on anabolic steroids, same goes for size, endurance, speed, and every other athletic performance you seek.
It is estimated that 3.3% of the world’s population has used anabolic steroids before.

Legality
USA
The Anabolic Steroids Control Act of 1990 made anabolic steroids schedule 3 controlled substances in the United States. This means if you buy or sell anabolic steroids without a valid prescription you are breaking the law and you can face a year in prison and at least a $1000 fine for a first offense. It is very rare that you ever hear about anyone who gets busted for using, unless you do something dumb like get pulled over with it or you are already being watched for something else.
It is important to remember that local laws within your state or county can vary as to how strict they are with something like this. Just as being pulled over with some marijuana will land you in jail in a state like Tennessee, do the same thing in California and the cop will not care. The bottom line is the people who are arrested are going to primarily be those who are running a large underground lab and/or pretending to be an actual pharma company. There have been people put in prison for many years for that violation.
Every major sports league has also banned the use of anabolic steroids, and in the NFL for example if you are caught using them you will face a suspension of 4-6 games for a first offense along with fines.
Worldwide
Oddly enough the biggest users of anabolic steroids according to the Annals of Epidemiology2 are in the Middle East, followed by South America, then Europe. In many of those countries steroids are sold over the counter or simply legal to possess even without a script, so the main users are recreational athletes looking for an edge. It is important to know the laws in your particular country.
Australia, Argentina, Brazil, Portugal, Saudi Arabia, and Sweden have strict laws against anabolic steroids. The UK and some other countries in Europe are lax on possession but strict if you sell, so be careful how much you buy or keep on hand or they may charge you as a dealer.
Other countries like Mexico, Dominican Republic, Colombia, Lebanon, and many Eastern European countries allow you to buy anabolic steroids in a pharmacy over the counter. However, as mentioned earlier not all steroids are going to be available because not all steroids are human grade in 2020/2021. An example of that is Trenbolone3 will be impossible to find as no pharma company produces it anymore, so if you want to buy it you will still have to tap into the black market.
Alternatives
Those who want to avoid steroids can purchase SARMs (selective androgen receptor modulators)4 and natural supplements. However, you can never compare those with actual high quality anabolic steroids.
How to buy steroids legally
The legal way is to go to an endocrinologist, or see your regular doctor who can refer you to a specialist who will write you a prescription. The second legal method would be to seek a for-profit anti-aging clinic who are going to want to sell you as many steroids as they can get away with, without putting up red flags. They will charge far more than a regular doctor but they also will be more liberal with what they allow you access. You also have the peace of mind knowing your steroids are real and properly dosed.
How to buy steroids illegally
Whether you live in a country where steroids are legal or illegal it is easier than ever to buy them thanks to the internet. You can find dozens and dozens of steroid dealers both domestically and internationally.
Payments
Most sources these days are accepting cryptocurrency/bitcoin as payment. You will need to open up your bitcoin account and then fund it. You should check with your bank to see how compatible they are with transferring funds into a cryptocurrency account. This link will give you step by step directions to make it easy.5
Sources
The bad news is however most of these sources are not honest. They may simply ghost you after you send them money. Other sources will send you the wrong items, less items then you ordered, or something else entirely. You also risk them sending you fake steroids or underdosed steroids. You will use them and realize it after a few weeks when you have poor results. It is always important to use approved sources for this reason.
The good news is some fitness forums such as evolutionary.org. They have done the hard work of vetting these sources for you. They also have representatives on the forum. These reps are there to provide you good service in case there is a problem.
Another option is buying steroids through someone in person. Typically this will involve someone who knows someone via a gym setting. You can gently nudge some large meathead in the gym into spilling the beans on who he knows who sells them. Usually you can find a couple dealers in every decent sized gym. The downside is you are not able to be anonymous. They likely have a poor selection of products, and there is little guarantee what you are getting is quality steroids.
Ordering online
Some sources provide lists by email and some have websites. If you are using an email source or a website, they will give you instructions on how to pay. Of course, you have to tell them what you want to order. You then pay them, provide your shipping info, and they will ship out your order in a timely fashion. If you order international I highly recommend getting a PO Box. In case your order is seized by customs, and if are unlucky and get a customs letter do not respond. Instead, send the source a copy of the letter. Then, they should offer to reship your order to a fresh address. I never recommend using your actual home address.
