The current SAAMI mean maximum pressure limit for the standard .38 Spec. is 17,000 psi. The speer Gold Dot Personal Protection 125 g +P runs at 20,000 which is the top end of the SAAMI for +P and over the pressure recommended for .38 spec.

Will they hurt your gun? probably not. Will they cost you more? Yup.

Cost is the main reason I don't shoot +Ps often.
