Thread: Counteract the effects of steroid stunting growth

  1. #1

    Question Counteract the effects of steroid stunting growth

    I've read that steroids stunts your growth in height while you are still growing and I was wondering if there is anything that can counteract this effect?

    I was considering this. Stacking them together so I would reach my desired height and then laying off but keeping up with the juice.

    Exactly, ephyseal fusion can occur at anytime between 15-25, ethnicity(amongst other things) plays a large part in determining this.

    yeah but the 6'5 person could always gain more weight, the 5'7 person would have a much harder time. Sorry man, its just not cool to be short.

    Letro could suppress the estorgen which is what I understand to cause the fusions of growth plates. However I wouldn’t guarantee it.

    You are getting warmer


    Well since I'm not in the best of moods I'll give you to scientific answer.

    Androgens and estrogens both play a supportive role in bone calcium retention. They are "osteogenic". It is the estrogenic activity that closes the ephiphyseal (EP) closure and stunted growth. Non-aromatizing steroids such as anavar, winstrol, and primbolan increase calcium retention so theoretically they could increase final height.

    But no one in their right mind would EVER recommend this to a teenager.

    To further this, estrogen also plays a very important role in the final calcification and end phase of secondary sexual maturation on the Pineal Gland.

    Are teens more prone to stuff like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96PQQ...eature=related (body acne)

    I know since we are still going through adolescence that stuff like sebum and testosterone are still on the rise therefore we could get permanent scars from acne (sebum) since we already have so much of it and it will just be increased and also our testosterone levels could be hindered permanently.

    Are teens more prone to that ^^?

    Yes they are, teens suffer much more pronounced side effects than that of health male adults. One thing that is not exaggerated by the media is the side effects to teens, in healthy male adults the side effects are much less dramatic and are over hyped.
