Virilizing" means masculinizing. This can mean increased body hair growth, a deeper voice, etc. in males and females. Women may find that they start to get oily skin and acne, grow dark peach fuzz or a mustache or other body hair, have itching of the clitoris followed by increasing clitoral size, or develop other "male" characteristics with continued administration of steroids that are somewhat androgenic. These problems sometimes reverse if the steroid dose is not too high and steroid use is stopped immediately when side effects are detected.

virilizing tumor
Some references to show the use of the term in the medical field:

"Virilizing Testicular Tumor: In Vivo Studies of Steroid Secretion"
http://pediatrics.aappublications.org/cgi/content/abstract/4...
"A virilizing adrenal tumor with borderline elevation of urinary 17-ketosteroids"
http://journals.endocrinology.org/erc/fca/ERC01065.htm
"Abstract
A 57-year-old woman presented with an apparently obvious diagnosis of iatrogenic virilization. At the age of 51, she began a 4-year treatment with prednisone or cyclosporine, which are known to promote hair growth, for Beh祴 disease. At the age of 56, osteoporosis was overtreated with the anabolic steroid nandrolone. Insignificant inhibition by dexamethasone of the extremely high serum concentrations of testosterone and less high concentrations of weak androgens prompted us to search for a virilizing tumor. Computed tomography showed a 2.3x1.5 cm nodule in the right adrenal gland. Because the patient refused surgery, virilization was treated with the antiandrogen cyproterone acetate (CPA), but for only 4 months, because clinical and hormone abnormalities reversed and the tumor was no longer visible. The patient remains symptom-free. This first report of a curative effect of CPA on a purely virilizing adrenal tumor opens new avenues in the management of such tumors."
I hope that helps!
