About 900 teenage sex workers in Bangladesh apply corticosteroids

Young females in Bangladesh that are involved in prostitution use steroids in order to add weight and bulk up. It has been reported by Reuters. The article’s headline has the following words: “dark steroid secret”. It is claimed that prostitutes from Bangladesh take steroids in order to have better appearance. Undoubtedly, the first thoughts that come in mind in this situation are related to administration of anabolic steroids. But reading the article completely and more attentively, any person can see that it is written not about anabolic steroids but about corticosteroids.
One of corticosteroids that are available at pharmacies of Bangladesh is sold under the trade name Oradexon. It is not needed to have a prescription in order to buy this medication. It costs approximately 15 taka that equal to 0, 18 USD dollars. Another name of this drug is Dexamethasone. This is an anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressant medication that is directed for treatment of persons who experience various illnesses. This medicine is over 25 times more potent that the natural steroid hormone cortisol.
90 % of prostitutes at the 15 legal bagnios from Bangladesh administer the corticosteroid Oradexon. 90 % equal to 900 teenage female prostitutes who utilize this medicine systematically. They apply it by own choice or are enforced to do it. Thus, some of them are enforced to take it. But others administer this product willingly because it is stated that corticosteroids are able to enhance strength and improve health.
It seems to be ironically but prostitutes from Bangladesh  who utilize corticosteroids have the same purposes like those which encourage bodybuilders to administer anabolic steroids. Sex workers administer corticosteroids in order to improve physical appearance, add weight and stimulate appetite.
It is claimed that Oradexon is able to give healthy appearance to consumers. Customers appreciate it. A woman that is involved in prostitution in Bangladesh notes that customers are seeking healthy ladies. Since she needs money to pay her bills and loans, she should have customers every day. If she doesn’t have any customer a day, she doesn’t have what to eat. Moreover, she tries to earn money for her son.
Actually, negative consequences that can appear due to corticosteroids are much more serious than those that can appear due to application of anabolic steroids. Corticosteroids may affect immune system, lead to osteoporosis and insulin resistance, stimulate appetite unusually, and enhance weight and fat.
Specialists try to draw people’s attention to abuse of corticosteroids and probable unwanted reactions of them.
