Athletes should be allowed to use performance-enhancing drugs

It is not needed to subject athletes to tests for doping substances. Many cases manifest that tests for forbidden preparations are not efficient. In addition to this factor, it is important to comprehend that application of tests by anti-doping agencies is not logical at Olympics. The chief purpose of Olympic sportspersons is following: to become faster, stronger and to be at the highest level. Thus, why should you keep athletes far from drugs which could help them to achieve this result?
As you know, steroids and other related drugs enhance performance. So, sportspeople should be allowed to take these remedies in order to enhance physical performance.
A lot of individuals say that steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs make competitions unfair. Is this point of view true? No, it wrong. You should realize that tests for steroids and other related products make competitions unfair. A lot of athletes administer performance-enhancing drugs while avoiding detection. So, some athletes apply steroids; others don’t violate anti-doping rules. As a result, users of doping products have unfair advantage over non-dopers. It’s unfair. Let all athletes have similar access to performance-enhancing drugs. Thus, competitions will be fairer.
But debating about unfairness in sports, you should not forget about other conditions that have more serious impact of fairness/unfairness than steroids and other related drugs. Several athletes live in developed countries; others are in less developed countries. Certain sportspersons have money to get needed equipment; others can’t afford it. Certain countries can sponsor sportspeople, trainers, sport physicians and managers; others are not able to do it. Thus, unfairness should be discussed here.
Olympic sportspersons spend much time while training. They sacrifice time, money, etc. That’s why it is illogical to disqualify those who are caught taking steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs.
While sportspersons are sentenced to bans for application of steroids and some other chemical substances, they are never suspended for application of herbs and certain potions. It is claimed that anabolic steroids and other chemical substances are banned in sports because they can boost physical performance. But what is for herbs and potions? They are also capable to enhance energy. Nonetheless, these remedies are not forbidden in sports.  Chinese athletes use herbal remedies and win.
Of course, you may argue that steroids and certain other medications may result in serious side effects. Undoubtedly, several banned preparations may cause serious health problems. But those who intend to take these preparations do own research. They are aware of potential risks. Let sportspersons decide whether it is worthy to apply such products. If they are ready to ruin health, let them do it because they should manage own bodies.
