Could Thor Batista's “premature aging” be related to anabolic steroid use?
If you think about speculation on the internet, the… These are people turned to Dr. João Paulo Figueiredo, a plastic surgeon specializing in LAD liposurgery, former student of Ivo Pitanguy and member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery, working in the capitals of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, to explain the connection between anabolic steroids and aging .
According to João Paulo, it cannot be said that Thor's supposed aging is related to previous habits: “What makes him look or present more 'aged' is probably the genetic problem of hair loss.” Of course, what has the biggest impact is hair loss that occurs earlier than normal.”
“There is no disorder, neglect, the fact that he gave up on himself, or anabolic steroids that caused him to age prematurely. “I see a more mature man with different values than in the past, appearing in the media and who has a stronger stigma regarding an aging criterion, namely premature alopecia,” the doctor continues.
He also reiterates that alopecia is a common genetic condition and that it may have been passed down to Thor from his father. Eike Batistawho also showed signs of alopecia in the past.
Nevertheless, he emphasizes that the use of anabolic steroids can actually cause alopecia. But he argues: “In my opinion it's a genetic, normal, physiological problem, but it doesn't show any negligence on his part.”

On October 29, 2014, Thor shared on his Instagram a screenshot of a conversation on WhatsApp in which he suggested its use Cholinesterase. However, it is important to highlight that it is not possible to know the content of Thor's speech and determine whether the substance was mentioned for his own use.
On this subject, João Paulo explains: “Cholinesterase is an enzyme that inhibits a substance called acetylcholine, which is a neurotransmitter. Acetylcholine transmits processes through the nervous system that we call parasympathetic. For example, sweating, racing heartbeat and urge to urinate are characteristic of the parasympathetic nervous system. From an autonomic nervous system that you don’t control in your body.”
According to him, a small amount of cholinesterase in the body is unable to inhibit acetylcholine, resulting in a person needing complementary medications. The phenomenon occurs primarily in people who are frequently exposed to pesticides or suffer from liver failure.
“That is the question: Taking anabolic steroids can cause liver problems. But you can't say that's what happened [com Thor]“, concludes the doctor.
