Doping-related cardiomyopathy, unlike the healthy athlete’s heart, causes often irreversible damage that can lead to heart failure, pulmonary congestion, and even sudden death.
This site is intended to provide information and make cardiology comprehensible for all patients; it is not a substitute for a doctor. It does, however, enable a better understanding of how the heart works, the many heart diseases that exist, the tests required to reach a diagnosis, and the drugs and other methods used to treat them.
Where the masculine is used herein, it shall be all-gender inclusive.
