Alright, I'm 20 years old and I'm going to get my growth plates checked. My projected height was 5'11 and I'm far from that, so I either stunted my growth, or I'm going to have a very late one. I'm also the shortest guy on either side of the family (even considering that my mom's side is Italian). My dad and his brothers all break 6' easy, I think my dad is 6'2. My grandpa is 5'10.
I didn't mean for it to be an anabolic, as much as I would love to run a cycle, I'd rather wait until at LEAST age 25 and until I max my natty potential first. I'm not interested in using it for muscle gain, but for height.
I've read a decent amount of research on stane and I was convinced it would be a much better option then say adex to take long-term (6-12m) but then I read somewhere that it was a "steroidal" ai, so I automatically thought it could potentially stunt growth. I tried and tried to find if it did or not, but to no avail. Technically, I would assume that it doesn't since it lowers estrogen, SHBG, and raises IGF-1 and free/total test levels. If anything, it sounds like a dream to run, though I am aware of the infamous estrogen crash.
I also understand that it is estrogen that fuses the growth plates and I wish I knew that before I cycled clomid. I only did it for 30 days and I dropped it shortly after I found out it could potentially cause harm. Do you think that would close my growth plates? It was 50mg ED.
I'm also running pregnenolone (I just started today to try it out), can that stunt my growth? I know it can turn into estrogen, but if I were taking an ai natural or not, it shouldn't be too problematic at low doses right?
