ENHANCED ATHLETES
Harm reduction
for PED users.
Bodybuilding bloods (steroid blood tests), bloods on cycle, protocol review and harm-reduction monitoring — telehealth from clinicians who understand enhanced training. Judgement-free, NZ-wide.
Important: Enhanced Men does not prescribe, supply, source, or condone the use of anabolic-androgenic steroids or any other performance-enhancing substance not approved for medical use in New Zealand. Our role is discouragement from use, general health consults, harm reduction, bloodwork if indicated, primary prevention prescriptions if indicated — not supply.

Health Risks of Unmonitored PED Use
Without regular blood work and medical supervision, PED use can silently damage multiple organ systems. Early detection is key to preventing irreversible harm.
Cardiovascular
- ›Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH)
- ›Elevated blood pressure
- ›Dyslipidaemia — suppressed HDL, elevated LDL
- ›Increased risk of MI and stroke
- ›Polycythaemia (thickened blood)
Hepatic (Liver)
- ›Elevated liver enzymes (AST/ALT)
- ›Cholestasis from oral compounds
- ›Peliosis hepatis (rare but serious)
- ›Drug-induced liver injury (DILI)
Haematological
- ›Elevated haematocrit & haemoglobin
- ›Increased blood viscosity
- ›Thromboembolic events (DVT, PE)
- ›Suppressed immune function
Neuropsychiatric
- ›Mood instability and irritability
- ›Anxiety and depressive episodes
- ›Insomnia and sleep disruption
- ›Dependency and withdrawal syndrome
Endocrine & Reproductive
- ›HPG axis suppression
- ›Testicular atrophy
- ›Infertility / azoospermia
- ›Oestrogen-related side effects (gynaecomastia)
- ›Adrenal insufficiency (with certain compounds)
Renal & Metabolic
- ›Elevated creatinine and reduced eGFR
- ›Insulin resistance and glucose dysregulation
- ›Electrolyte imbalances
- ›Rhabdomyolysis risk (with extreme training loads)
What We Monitor
Our blood panels are tailored for enhanced athletes — going well beyond a standard GP check-up. When clinically indicated, we track the markers that matter most for your safety:
What it costs
From $149 for the initial review.
Follow-up reviews $149.
12-month subscription with quarterly reviews for $620.
Self-request "sports panels" sold online are fixed bundles. A doctor-led review requests only the markers your phase needs, at your local lab, and reads them with you.
