Most governing bodies in sport use urine samples for drug testing. While there is a blood test to detect higher than normal levels of hGH, there is not presently a urine test. Accurate urine tests of the other performance enhancing drugs exist, but realize that new formulations that are undetectable by current tests can be developed and may be available to athletes. Answer 5, THG, was an example of a "designer steroid" in which the structure was changed in the lab so that it could not be detected on standard drug tests until a new test became available in 2003.

Tokis et al is a review article that states that human growth hormone has been tried by up to 5% of 10th graders.

Calfee et al author a review article that is a free full-text article through the journal Pediatrics. They state that anabolic steroids and creatine do offer potential gains in body mass and strength but risk adverse effects to multiple organ systems
