Human traffickers purchase young girls for $250 from their families and force them to work in the prostitution trade. Up to 90 percent of the prostitutes in Bangladesh take a steroid in order to appear older and be able to have more sex with clients in a day, with most prostitutes having sex with 15 customers per day.
The sex customers in Bangladesh pay $0.60 cents for each visit.
The girls pay $0.18 cents for their steroids.
