Performance-enhancing drugs are allowed in sports.

The mental risks

Depression has also been linked to steroid use, and athletes who use performance-enhancing steroids are more likely to attempt suicide than athletes who do not use them. (recourse #3)

Steroid users may become overly aggressive or combative, a condition commonly referred to as “’roid rage.” Uncontrolled aggression causes some steroid users to become confrontational with friends and family; sometimes, they end up in trouble with the law (recourse #3)

integrity

There are several reasons to ban performance-enhancing drugs: respect for the rules of sports, recognition that natural talents and their perfection are the point of sports, and the prospect of an ‘arms race’ in athletic performance (resource #2)

integrity of sport is fundamental to the spirit of sport, and that integrity is threatened by doping (resource #1)

Health risks

The use of steroids can have serious health repercussions, including affected liver, endocrine, and reproductive function, tumors of the liver and kidneys, heart conditions, and psychiatric symptoms. (resource #1)

The only way to preserve integrity in sport and protect the health of athletes is through a serious anti-doping approach. (resource #1)
