EFFECT OF THE ABUSE OF STEROIDAL ANDROGENIC HORMONES AND THEIR RELATIVE CONTRIBUTION TO THE LEVEL OF HORMONES (TESTOSTERONE, FSH, LH) AND THE PROPORTION OF INFERTILITY IN BODYBUILDERS

ABSTRACT The research aims to identify the impact of using stimulants on some biochemical variables which are (Testosterone, FSH, LH) and the proportion of infertility in bodybuilding athlete in the city of al- Diwaniyah. And also to identify the level of concentration of hormones (Testosterone, FSH, LH) of the bodybuilding athlete in the city of Diwaniyah. While the research methodology, the two researchers used the descriptive method and by the survey manner to appropriate the nature of the research. While the research sample was bodybuilding players in the province of al- Diwaniyah totaling (15) players and have been selected in the intentional manner and through statistical methods the researchers have reached to the most important conclusions which is; A decrease in the level of concentration of both hormones (LH, FSH) in a research sample, there is increase in the level of the concentration of the hormone (testosterone) for a research sample. Appearance of infertility ratio and that was a few for the research sample. As the most important recommendations was the need of athletes to keep away from the use of steroids and stimulants, especially the structural stimulants because of their significant adverse effects on athletes. Tests for the decomposition of blood of athletes who participate in tournaments periodically during training and competition.
