Does AAS affect the ability to have son? ( BBers who juice have daughters only?)

[kryzz]

So a trainer told me he knows many many bodybuilders who juice and they all have daughters, not a single of them have a son. He swore by it and although he himself juiced three times advised me against it.
Is there any truth to it? Please Discuss with your personal or a buddy's example who have juiced a lot.

Lol,
That's a load of rubbish....
I had a daughter before ever using gear, and my son was conceived at the start of a cycle just a few weeks in so only the dianabol would have been fully kicked in by then.
Me and my gf always joke that he's a jacked up baby and he does seem to have quite prominent delts.. Lol

The odds are the same I'd say 50/50... But who knows without proper research.

Yeah that's BS

I know plenty of guys that have used/are using gear that have sons. Me being one of them.

Negative it has to do with what siblings are peominent in your famy. More sisters more daughters more brothers more sons. It has been oredespositioned for you by your dad.

nice info if true.

My dad has 2 sons his dad had 5 daughters and 2 sons I have a daughter and a son my brother has a son. Women also have an X Y egg but the Y is disabled in the women egg thus rendering the men as the onlynone being able to choose the sex of the child. Pretty interesting stuff.

Load of bs bro

The birth rate of males versus females is actually not equal, slightly more males are born (107 boys to 100 girls). Sex is determined by the sperm contribution, and XY sperm are faster swimmers likely accounting for the 107:100 ratio, but female encoding sperm (XX) are more hardy and can last longer in the reproductive track. SO the only possibility is that the XX sperm are more hardy if AAS is causing harm somehow, but I cant really see what that would be. AAS use definitely reduces fertility though by dramatically reducing sperm count.

probably bs but still scared cuz i really dont wanna have a daughter atleast before i have a son

You will be closer to your daughter anyway. More of a special relationship than with a son (usually the case for the dad).

Lol. This caught my eye. I'm actually having a daughter! She'll be here in a few months. But I would have to say that what you heard isn't true. Its just the luck of the draw though.

Wanted a son so I could teach him fishing, hunting, lifting, and how to pick up girls. Ended up having a daughter and wouldn't trade her for anything. So now I get to teach her to fish, hunt, lift and how to avoid being picked up. She's going to be a little ball-breaker muwahhaha.

I would be interested in seeing a study done on how higher levels of testosterone affect sperm (not counting FSH levels) motility/birth outcomes.

Hi Halfwit, Its known that testosterone elevation suppresses LH and FSH, leading to loss of sperm production. This was even tried as the male contraceptive pill in the 60s. However, some patients were completely refractory to the effect and never showed the contraceptive effects. So, its pretty complicated, some patients show complete loss of sperm production, and others are not affected. There are many research studies on this, and here is a line form a recent paper:

"Initial studies showed that longterm treatments with testosterone esters, even at high doses, induce azoospermia in only a proportion of subjects with notable differences between ethnic groups (World Health Organization Task Force, 1990; Handelsman et al., 1992; Sundaram et al., 1993; Behre et al., 1995)"
An investigation of the effectiveness of testoste... [Hum Reprod. 2003] - PubMed - NCBI

But, your story about having a daughter is awesome and cracked me up.......avoid being picked up! The boys are after my daughter as well!

Doesn't help that I'm 6'7". I almost feel sorry for the little guys. Haha.

Yeah, I knew FSH and LH are lowered greatly (mine are off the scale due to testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) at .2 and .1 respectively - meaning I am likely no longer producing sperm), I just wanted to see if the sperm that make it are any different in their makeup at all. Like I know that different body temperatures for extended periods of time can influence how fast the little guys swim, so I figure maybe changing the hormones a little might also affect that. Of course that would be considered an "unethical" study and would probably never be done.

Man, you know you're in trouble when your kid is at the 90% height but 40% weight and has her mama's natural tan skin and curly hair. I've got my work cut out for me! Great link for the study btw.
