This is a loaded question. A 11 year old that has growth deficiency is prescribed HGH. Are they an "adult" when it comes to HGH? Is this what you're asking? Do you want to know when you can start taking HGH if your level of HGH is not "normal"?
In addition, does anyone know the minimum level a growth hormone stimulation test should show for a normal, non-deficient person?
A healthy adult in their 20's are producing about 1.5iu to nearly 2iu everyday of natural growth hormones.
Thanks.
