I keep reading about enlarged hearts from AAS use. Do you think this is something else blown out of proportion by the media? Has anyone had an EKG or scans of their heart before and after AAS use? We have all heard than an enlarged heart is typical for bodybuilders, so maybe AAS doesn't have as much to do with it as once thought. What has been your experience?

If not directly from the aas then I would say that due to the increase in BP. If your BP goes up the heart works harder. We know that when you work a muscle it grows.

Also in studies I'm sure that they do not separate steroid abuser and steroid user.

Idk bout been enlarged, but i had ekgs done on and off cycle, and when kn cycle it always shows as abnormal. Off cycle is normal. The doc says is ok. It migh be the crazy pumps from the dbol/winni only cycles.
