Answer:

The use of anabolic steroids can raise blood levels of testosterone well above a person's normal range. As a result, the body may try to regulate testosterone levels by shutting down its own production of testosterone. In order to prevent this, people usually use anabolics in cycles of a few weeks on and then off.
