Feds are interested in sexual performance of athletes that are suspected of steroid use

Some athletes who are suspected of steroid use become targets of the government. Feds do almost everything in order to determine whether several athletes have administered any doping products. They don’t spare taxpayers’ funds for this goal. Much money is spent to reveal even private life of sportspeople. According to the government, several details of their private behavior can reveal the truth about usage of banned substances. Thus, girlfriends of some athletes are interviewed by feds.
For example, it has been reported that former girlfriends of Lance Armstrong and Roger Clemens and a former mistress of Barry Bonds have been asked about several details connected with private life of these sportspersons. Which questions were asked?
Kimberly Bell, a former mistress of Barry Bonds, was asked about size of testicles of this athlete. She affirmed that the baseball player’s testicles were shrunken. So, her answer served as a proof that Barry Bonds took steroids and/or other forbidden medicines.
It is known that shrinkage of testicles is included in adverse results of several steroids. Thus, the government decided to learn whether Barry Bonds had had this trouble. But it is an unreliable argument in order to prove that anyone has taken some prohibited products. Steroid users may prevent this side effect, if they take some medications for this purpose.
Mindy McCready, a former mistress of Roger Clemens, was asked whether this former athlete had suffered from erectile dysfunctions. The woman confirmed that sometimes Roger Clemens had experienced this problem.
When it comes to erectile dysfunctions, they may occur during intake of steroids. But if you study information about side effects of steroids more attentively, you can understand that this effect is more likely to appear after discontinuation of application. It happens because natural secretion of testosterone is normally suppressed by intake of exogenous testosterone. But since there are such remedies which are capable to regenerate natural testosterone production, erectile dysfunctions can be avoided.
Sheryl Crow, a former girlfriend of Lance Armstrong, was also interviewed by the government. But questions are not disclosed. According to several suppositions, she might have been asked also about sexuality of the 7-time Tour de France winner.
In fact, the government has a wrong point of view in this case. Although testicular atrophy and erectile dysfunctions may appear because of steroids, these arguments are not proper.
