Steroids are a very bad idea for a female, as most of them will have virilization (masculinization) effects to a certain extent, and unfortunately, these virilization effects are irreversible, so you will surely end up regretting the use of steroids. Therefore, it is much more reasonable for a female, especially the non-competing one, to use such non-hormonal compounds as SARMS. In no way will they cause any virilization whatsoever, and they will not cause any other side effects either. Besides, when females use steroids, the dosages are extremely low, and consequently, the results are not as prominen as with male kind of dosages. Therefore, with SARMS you will end up with a similar kind of results, but without any problems associated. The wife of a close friend of mine has been using SARMS for a long time now, and she could not be any happier with the results and absence of side effects.
