It depends on what exactly you use. What kind of protein powder? Synthetic "testosteron"? Most of these products for building more muscles have side effects. About 400 are know. Mental as physical side effects. How much it side effects depends also on the amount you use and your age. Getting impotent is just one of them. If you use it as a man you will get more female (and this is not a joke). You also can get sterile.

I'm a professional gym instructor come pharmacologist, and know for a fact protein powders can't make you sterile - only if they're cut with anabolic steroids can they do that.
However, overloading the body with protein can lead to impaired kidney function, besides which if you're not training hard enough the protein will just get flushed through the system anyway. Best thing for body building is to use a good amino acid supplement - feed the body with the building blocks it needs.

Not sure about that, what I know is that STEROIDS are the ones who are bad to the body since steroids decreases immunity. I just don't know with sterility. LoLs

Hey There! It`s nice to hear you work hard on your body. Having a sexy, muscly, shaped body brings it`s own benefits. About the proteins or simular things. I sugest you not to use things like that, Believe most of the cases don`t end up good. If you want to body build, do it without consuming anything that gives ``Extra strenght`` or something like it. Best way to body build is the way everyone does, just train hard!
