“”Adult male laboratory mice were exposed for 6 months to a combination of four anabolic-androgenic steroids of the kinds and at the relative levels to which human athletes and body builders expose themselves. The four steroids included testosterone, two 17-alkylated steroids, and an ester, and they were given at doses that totaled either 5 or 20 times normal androgenic maintenance levels for mice. By the time the survivors were 20 months old (1 yr after the termination of steroid exposure), 52% of the mice given the high dose of steroids had died compared with 35% of the mice given the low dose and only 12% of the control mice given no exogenous hormones (P < 0.001). Autopsy of the steroid-treated mice typically revealed tumors in the liver or kidney, other kinds of damage to these two organs, broadly invase lymphosarcomas, or heart damage, and usually more than one of these conditions. It can be concluded that the life span of male mice is decreased dramatically by exposing them for 6 months to the kinds and relative levels of anabolic steroids used by many athletes and body builders.

The average lifespan of a mouse is two years in captivity.
So they exposed the mice to the equivalent of 500mg to 2000mg in human terms of four different types of steroids for 6 months which would be one quarter of their life non-stop.
Two of these steroids were oral steroids equivalents such as dianabol or anadrol which are harsh on the liver.
So it like a human taking 400mg of test/deca and 100mg dbol/anavar per week non stop for 20 years.
Or with the larger dose 750mg test, 750 tren, 500 dbol/anadrol for 20 years continuously.
No wonder they got tumors from the orals, and kidney problems from high blood pressure for a quarter of their lifespan.
This is irresponsible use. Who does this apart from pro bodybuilders or irresponsible/ignorant gymrats?
Did these mice have a nutritious diet and good exercise program as well, or otherwise look after their health?
