There's a good discussion about the possibility of HGH use inducing Type 2 (i.e. "adult onset") diabetes at http://forums.steroid.com//showthrea...light=diabetes

The last post is...
"But anyways, I talked to a doctor...and one who would actually tell me the truth..not one of those doctors who says everything is harmful and AS is the devil. He said that any raise in GH--be it exogenous or endogenous--can lead to diabetes in one pre-disposed. He says it is a common side-effect of GH."

There's a study at http://jcem.endojournals.org/cgi/content/full/88/4/1455 that indicates insulin resistance (the bad guy of Type 2) even at low levels (for HGH replacement). They found insulin resistance persisted months after discontinuing.. "Regardless of this, the untoward effect of GH on glucose metabolism persisted after 6 months."

So it looks like HGH induced insulin resistance may not reverse even long after discontinuing. Anybody know if there's a final word on the relationship between HGH and the potential for Type 2?
