Are one million people in the UK using anabolic steroids? Impressed with @FullFact - ensuring public/policy makers are provided with accurate information. Further work still needed to get a complete picture of the use of anabolic steroids in the UK.

The widely quoted figure can be traced to an extrapolated estimate from 2015, but a review earlier this year suggests the actual number is much lower.

#TEDxUniversityOfSalford thanks to @DaveCrosland_ for pic - looked great on the big screen. We need to listen to people who use steroids to I) provide effective harm reduction services. ii) identify drug trends that may diffuse to wider population eg DNP, GHB, Melanotan
