Apparently she doesn't give a damn about the masculinzing side effects of steroids: Carina Damm tested positive for nandrolone following an MMA match. MMA Junkie.com with the report on the "Barbie of the MMA":
For the first time in U.S. mixed-martial-arts history, a female fighter has tested positive for steroids.
Carina Damm, who recently defeated Sophie Bagherdai at an April 3 Fatal Femmes Fighting event, tested positive for elevated levels of Nandrolone, an anabolic steroid that develops naturally in the human body.
However, according to the California State Athletic Commission's Bill Douglas, Damm came in at 37.9 ng/mL, which far exceeded the 2 ng/mL threshold, after being tested at the Los Angeles event.
Douglas today submitted the results via email.
Damm (9-3), a four-year fight veteran who recently signed a three-fight contract with Elite Xtreme Combat, has been suspended one year (through April 2, 2009) and fined $2,500. She's the first U.S. female fighter to fail a test due to steroids, though she can request an appeal of the suspension.
The Brazilian was riding a four-fight win streak and was scheduled to next fight Debi Purcell at a June 27 ShoXC event.
Deepened voice, beard, acne, diminished breasts, enlarged genitals, infertility, birth defects...who cares about side effects when a girl can win a fight.
Oh, what a sad news. Next time, don't take steroids. I think it has side effects on the body if abused. ;-D
