Final height of short normal children treated with growth hormone - PubMed
Long-term therapy in this group of children appears safe but the small increment in final height, approximately 2.8 cm in boys and 2.5 cm in girls, does not justify the widespread use of r-hGH for short normal children.


Combination therapy with GH and cyproterone acetate does not improve final height in boys with non-GH-deficient short stature - PubMed
GH therapy during the prepubertal period did not improve the final height of boys with non-GH-deficient short stature. GH therapy without GS decreased pubertal height gain, resulting in reduced final height. Combination therapy with GH and GS using cyproterone acetate decelerated the bone...

did not increase adult height

Final height after growth hormone therapy in non-growth-hormone-deficient children with short stature - PubMed
We report the effect of growth hormone (GH) treatment for 4 to 10 years in 15 prepubertal non-GH-deficient short children (10 boys, 5 girls, aged 7.4 to 13.2 years). In 7 patients, GH was administered at a dosage of 0.5 U/kg per week (group 1: 4 boys, 3 girls) and in 8 patients (group 2: 6 boys...

but found no results with gh.

Unfavorable effects of growth hormone therapy on the final height of boys with short stature not caused by growth hormone deficiency - PubMed
A group of 18 boys with non-growth hormone (GH)-deficient short stature without GH therapy (group A) and another group of 9 boys with non-GH-deficient short stature with GH therapy in doses of 0.5 IU (0.17 mg)/kg per week administered 5 to 6 times weekly (group B) were observed until they...

" Our observation indicates that for boys with non-GH-deficient short stature GH therapy does not improve height SDS for bone age during the prepubertal period, and in fact reduces it during the pubertal period, possibly resulting in a shorter final height than might have been attained naturally."
