I’ve been considering starting HGH at 16.5. In the past year, I’ve grown 1.7 inches, and the year before that, I grew 2.5 inches. I still don’t have any facial hair, and my shoe size has increased around .5 in the past 8 months. However, my bone age is on the lower end of the standard deviation, around 16. I went to an endocrinologist, and she said it’s too late for me to start HGH since it wouldn’t be covered by insurance, and at max I have 1 maybe 2 inches to grow. My grandpas are 5'10" on my mom’s side and 6'0" on my dad’s side, and both of my grandmas are 5'5". I was properly nourished throughout puberty, so I don’t understand why I’m still so short. Is there any hope for me or nah?

i mean the doctor kinda said it ig maximize the last height u got hgh and ai


about your height i mean using a parental height calculator you are in the range based on your mom 5 foot height and dads 6'1.5 height with being average 5'9 you could grow taller

I’d be happy with 5'9", I could height fraud to 5'11" with that. The endocrinologist claims that will come naturally, though.

Why? I have good parental genetics, my doctors originally predicted I’d reach around 5'10" until I was 12, but I didn’t start puberty until early 14 yrs old.

your mum is 5'0 tall.

you are very lucky that your father is 6'1- but that still does not make up for the fact that your mums genes are passed down to you.

you do not have "good" parental genetics, i doubt you will grow more than another inch or two for life.

Can't ai lower iq or is that just cope? Also how much extra height would I even get out of this?

it can effect brain development since estrogen plays a role in that, so if u crash it could impact that but honestly js dont crash ur estrogen and ur good, ai lowers estrogen which shuts growth plates quicker

also if ur like me u could get extra test on it, i was at 1300ngdl (roid levels) of test with just aromasin and hgh but i did end up crashing my shit so watch out

You lost the genetic lottery. It's too late for HGH at your age

either find girls similar to your mums height and gymcel or cope

Ironically, I went to the orthopedist yesterday because I thought I broke my knee. It turns out I didn’t break it, I just tore my meniscus. But that’s beside the point; he was showing my mom and me the X-ray and said, “Those are his growth plates, he still has a lot of growing to do.” Maybe it’s not over.
