Steroid hormones can be produced by the secretion of the organism and can also be used as drugs. Abnormal secretion of steroids in the body may lead to a variety of diseases, such as disorders of electrolyte and blood glucose metabolism, etc. Improper use of steroid medications may result in adverse reactions, such as osteoporosis, gastric hemorrhage, and centripetal obesity. Some of the hormones in the human body belong to steroids, such as glucocorticoids, salt corticosteroids, etc., which can be used to maintain the normal physiological functioning of the body, such as regulating the metabolism of proteins, fats, electrolytes, and blood glucose. Steroid abnormalities in the body can lead to endocrine disruption. Taking steroid hormone drugs, such as glucocorticoids, may lead to susceptibility to infection, osteoporosis, gastric bleeding, obesity, edema, acne, elevated blood glucose and other adverse reactions; if anabolic androgenic steroids are taken, hepatic dysfunction, loss of appetite, hair loss, headache and so on may occur. Patients with steroid metabolism disorders should seek medical attention, and those who need to be treated with steroids should use the medication under the guidance of a doctor, and should not use the medication on their own.
