Some HGH Q's

[ithilsul]

I'm gonna see an endocrynologist about getting started on HGH soon, I've got a very small bone structure, got x-rays and i still have potential to grow. So I was wondering if anyone knows how well it can help growth in younger people? Stories of HGH used on young people seem to be few and far between. Theres a girl in my town who seems to be getting it in pill form from a doc, opposed to injections, wouldn't that be less potent?

Also I'm wondering if anyone can tell me their experiences with the cost... I've noticed the cost is just... wow from other sources. In fact, I'd think half this forum is rich if they can afford the cost of these things +_+; I was hoping to start on other things to aid in body building, but theres no way I can afford it.

Hope I'm not saying too much, I have tendancy to do that.

First I would not do anything until you talk to a specialist. You said you still have potential to grow but how do you know this for a fact? What I mean is some people stop growing at 16 and some at 22+. hGH is not going to make you taller is your growth plates have closed from what I understand and have always read. I think you have asked this same question a while back and got the same answer also.

My suggestion is go to the doctor, if he says hGH will make you grow then give it a try based on HIS recommendations and if he says no you are as tall as you are going to get them maximize what you have and start eating and lifting if you are wanting to get bigger. Hell look and L.P. he is like 5'2 or something and is freaking huge and it does not hold him back.

Anyway I have personally not heard of a "pill" form of hGH other than the scams you see on the internet.

Good luck and let us know what the doctor says.

I just got back from talking with a specialist. HGH in oral form is "pure bullshit", to quote him. He measured me and thinks by the length of my limbs compared to my torso that I'm done growing. Thinks I'm totally normal, just ****ed due to genes. I'm taking a test in a few hours to determine my GH levels. He says if they turn out on the low end of the spectrum, he can get me some anyway.

So my new question, what can I do to make it seem like my GH levels are low? I remember he mentioned something about sugar lowering it, and when I went to get my test they told me to wait until i haven't eaten or drank anything for 8 hours. If the sugar thing is true, I hope to drink soda or something before getting my test.

If it works... it's all on insurance, if not i'm screwed.

Edit: Posted this question in a more relevant forum

To let you know that if you increase your sugar level and they check your glucose level it is going to come back high and they are going to think you are diabetic. If you are diabetic the doctor is probably going to be less likely to prescribe it to you.

It is up to you but trying to trick the tests is not a good idea. It sucks but tricking a test to get medication is one of the worst ideas I have heard of. If you are done growing why would your doctor be giving your Gh anyway that to me seems like a trick to make more money IMO.

I am not a doctor but what is the extra GH going to do for you in this case?
