Another swimmer bites the dust. She says its from her ovarian disease . . . . . pay no attention to the synthetic qualities of testosterone that was reported to be found in her sample. Don't know if I'd want to arm "wrastle" this woman.

"Brazilian swimmer Rebeca Gusmoa suspended for steroids
She won 2 Pan Am Games gold medals, plus a silver and a bronze. She looks like the Incredible Hulk. And, she used synthetic testosterone. Check out her photos; which is the off-cycle?
Summing governing body FINA announced the doping suspensions of Brazil's Rebeca Gusmao. The International Herald carries the story."

She is definitely a muscular, masculine looking woman and suspect for steroid abuse!! But....in her defense, increased acne is also a symptom of polycystic ovary disease.
:dunno:
I have no knowledge about the affliction....and shouldn't have assumed.
However...to play devil's advocate...did she fall ill...and suddenly decide to use synthetic testosterone because it could conveniently be confused with the symptoms of her ailment?
That doesn't sound like the best recovery strategy.
