Anabolic steroid use, brain health and dependence


*The data included in this review indicate that physiological androgen levels hold prefrontal dopamine concentrations within a functionally optimal range; that supranormal androgen levels, e.g.,related to anabolic androgenic steroid (AAS) use/misuse impairs cognition by producing hypodopaminergia; and that androgen deprivation, e.g., following gonadectomy (GDX), impairs prefrontal function by producing hyper-dopaminergia
