HGH Questions - Fairly knowledgable but still new

[nebco1]

Hi I was wondering what the effects of HGH would have on a male who is going through puberty. Theoretically it should increase his height as his growth plates in the legs are not closed. It also make increase penile length as it is one of the hormones responsible for penile growth during puberty. Any comments or answers would be appreciated. Thanks!

That's all pretty accurate. For microphallus (small penis), testosterone is usually used at the start of puberty to increase penis size. Hgh may be added to enhance penis enlargement as well as enhance height growth as androgen administration at that age can decrease height.

This is not something you can do willy nilly and should be done under the guidance of a pediatric endocrinologist only or in rare instances urologists who have such experience.

Thanks for the response, I'm wondering why more people don't know this as this information seems pretty important for many adults with kids approaching puberty. Also I'm wondering how many parents would put there kids on this just to add more height then genetically possible.

I think most endocrinologists will only provide that kind of treatment for idiopathic short stature and related syndromes.
