Athletes should be allowed to use steroids and other related drugs

What is your point of view linked with legalization of doping in sports?  Certain persons claim that it is time to legalize it. Others are against it. What is your point of view?
Those who are against legalization of doping in sports claim that steroids and other related medicines represent great evil. They may cause grave side effects in consumers. Moreover, a doper has unfair advantage over a non-doper during competitions.
According to another opinion, administration of steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs should be allowed in sports. Let sportspeople use whatever they want! If they want to administer anabolic steroids, let them do it! If they plan to administer other medications, let them do it! If they want to use certain drugs, let doctors supervise their usage! Doctors know what their patients should do in order to avoid several negative consequences. So, performance-enhancing drugs will not lead to severe negative results. As a result, usage of anabolic steroids and other related medications will be relatively safe for health and life of consumers.
As you know, anabolic steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs are currently banned in sports. When athletes are suspected and/or found guilty of doping, scandals appear. Such cases are frequently discussed during TV shows, in magazines, newspapers, on internet, etc. You must know that each scandal usually contains not only truth but also gossips, exaggerations, etc. As a result, you can’t be sure whether several affirmations are true or not.
Those who are against legalization of doping in sports claim that sportspersons enhance performance unnaturally with the help of steroids and other related medications. Discussing about enhancement of athletic performance, you should not forget about enhancement of sexual performance, cognitive abilities, improvement of health, etc. Why do we apply several medicines and supplements, improving our health and life, while demonizing athletes that try to promote performance with anabolic steroids and other doping products? Is it fairly? You would note that steroids and several other doping products lead to health problems. Yes, it is true. But what do you think about usage of caffeine and nicotine? They are accepted in the society. But it is important to notice that caffeine and nicotine lead to more serious health troubles than anabolic steroids and other related medicines. Nonetheless, users of caffeine and nicotine are not so harshly blamed, as users of steroids.
Anti-doping agencies consider that they will soon eradicate doping from sports. “Competitions will be fair”, - they exclaim. But it is important to acknowledge that doping will be never eradicated from sports. Anti-doping officers will not be ever capable to do it. While they introduce new tests and enhance sanctions for administration of prohibited substances, sportspersons find new ways to avoid detection. Thus, anyone should comprehend that this conflict will never end, if doping is not legalized in sports.
