Will taking steroids for bodybuilding affect my transplanted hair?

crab_lord
I am 28 and was suffering from MPB and lost pretty much all the hair from top of my head and it’s been a month since got the transplant done. As the hair transplanted have been taken from donor area and it’s resistant to DHT, will taking steroids for bodybuilding will affect my transplanted hair, as I have got the transplantation done on the whole upper head area including crown.
