Introduction:
Hello bhai, this is my first guide on the forum and i wanted to make it about HGH as so many greys are obsessed with it and ask the same questions on a daily basis.
I will cover every single aspect from sourcing HGH to injecting it, and also i will explain all the pros and cons here with studies backing them up so you understand the risks and what HGH actually does in the body.

HGH Human Growth Hormone:
Exogenous HGH is synthetic human growth hormone, a peptide made up of 191 amino acids, thatโs injected into the body to replicate the natural growth hormone produced by your pituitary gland. It helps boost muscle development, fat burning, recovery, bone growth, and even improves skin health by promoting cell regeneration. Unlike oral supplements, exogenous HGH is directly absorbed into the bloodstream for maximum effectiveness. Itโs commonly used by athletes, bodybuilders, and those seeking anti-aging benefits, but itโs important to use it right and manage the doses to avoid potential side effects.

The Pros and Cons:
Hgh, like anything in life it also has its pros and cons, and how you respond depends a lot on your genetics. Some people see great results with better muscle, fat loss, skin, bone mass and a few inches of height while others might deal with side effects like bloating or joint issues without gaining an inch. Everyoneโs body is different, so how you respond can vary

Pros:
Muscle Growth : HGH boosts IGF-1, which grows muscle cells, speeds up recovery, increases protein synthesis, burns fat, and makes muscles look bigger by pulling more water into them.

Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19480608/#:~:text=Results: Current evidence suggests,used in critically ill patients
Anti-Aging Effects : HGH can make your skin look younger by improving elasticity and reducing wrinkles. It also helps your body produce collagen, which keeps skin and joints healthy.
Study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10515129/#:~:text=Skin tends to be pale,,LDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B
Stronger Bones : HGH can help make your bones stronger by improving bone density. This is especially helpful as you age, reducing the risk of fractures and keeping your bones healthy and strong.
Study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10515129/#:~:text=Growth hormone ,negatively affects longitudinal bone growth
Bone and Height Growth (For youngcells): If youโre still growing, HGH can help make your bones longer which can increase your height. This is most effective while your growth plates are still open typically in childhood and adolescence. Once your growth plates close (oldcells), HGH can no longer increase height but can still support bone health and density.

Cons:
Acromegaly : If dosed higher than two digits (10+) and used for prolonged periods there is a chance for developing acromegaly-like features, enlarged jaw, prominent brow/forehead, enlarged hands/feet, and coarse facial features
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14974923/
Cardiomegaly : Heart enlargement from HGH happens because HGH and IGF-1 stimulate heart muscle growth (hypertrophy), and over time, excessive growth can make the heart less efficient and strain its function, as the heart is also an muscle.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11932297/
Bloat : Bloat on HGH happens mainly because HGH increases water retention by boosting sodium retention and raising levels of a hormone called aldosterone, leading to fluid buildup in the skin and tissues.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11932310/
Organ Growth : Similar to cardiomegaly HGH boosts IGF-1, which makes organs grow by forcing their cells to multiply and enlarge over time causing HGH gut.
Study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2763332/
Cartilage Growth : This happens because of higher IGF-1 levels and cartilage in for example the nose and the ears are very sensitive to IGF-1 and are the first bones to show noticeable effect this and grow in size due to this.
Drains Thyroid : HGH increases the conversion of T4 to T3, making the thyroid work harder and eventually causing it to slow down if not supported.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34012834/
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome : HGH can cause fluid retention, swelling in the wrists, and pressure on the median nerve, leading to carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11128896/
Hypoglycemia : HGH lowers insulin sensitivity, so you need carbs to prevent low blood sugar. 10-15 grams of carbs per IU keeps your blood sugar stable and avoids symptoms like shakiness and dizziness.
What Iโm trying to say here is that only use HGH if you are okay with the risks of these cons and if the pros adjust to your goals.
Prices:
The price of HGH really depends on the quality and where youโre buying it from. Some cheaper options are lower quality but they might not be as pure or maybe even under dosed. The better, higher quality (pharma) HGH costs more because itโs made with higher standards and is usually safer and more effective.
View attachment 3684640
Pharma (Pharmaceutical Grade) HGH
Prices range from $150 - $350+
For 36 iu of Genotropin (HGH Pen)
View attachment 3685336
Generic UGL (Underground Lab) HGH
Prices range from $100 - $200+
For 100 iu (usually with BAC Water)
View attachment 3684651
Generic Chinese HGH
Prices range from $50 - $100+
For 100 iu (without BAC Water)
Lets say you choose to use 6iu ed (everyday) that means that 100iu only gets you 16 days so you need 2 kits which is 200iu that will get you 30+ days and depending on where your buying from it should be $100 - $700 monthly.
So my advice is to have the money ready as you need at least 6-12 month of HGH for any noticeable change on height / bones
Differences:
(Varies)
Other Costs:
View attachment 3685305
Insulin Syringes
(29โ31 gauge, 0.5 ml or 1 ml)
Cost: Around $5 - $15+ for a pack of 100 syringes.
Note: Prices can vary based on needle size and quantity, with some packs offering a mix of sizes.
View attachment 3685312
Alcohol Swabs
Cost: Around $3 - $10+ for a pack of 100 swabs.
Note: Single-use, affordable, and widely available at most pharmacies or online.
View attachment 3685323
Bacteriostatic Water (BAC Water)
Cost: Around $5 - $15 for a 10 ml vial.
Note: You only need a small amount each time you mix HGH, so a single vial can last for a long time.
View attachment 3685327
Thyroid Support (T4)
Cost: Around $10 - $40+
per month, depending on the brand and dosage (e.g., 50 mcg tablets).
Note: Prices can vary significantly based on the brand and whether you get a prescription or use over-the-counter options.
View attachment 3685333
Sharps Container
Cost: Around โฌ5โโฌ10+ for a small sharps container.
Alternative: If you use a thick plastic bottle, you can save money, but make sure itโs durable and can be sealed properly to prevent accidents.
So a total monthly cost ranges from $35 - $75+ for these extra costs.
Source:
โWhere can I buy HGH?โ This is asked by greys all the time. The truth is simple: If you canโt find a source, you shouldnโt be using HGH. Use Google and search โbuy HGH [your country]โkeep it simple. You can also find domestic sources through bodybuilding forums. For Chinese generics, look for threads on bodybuilding forums and choose one thats reputable.
If you insist that you canโt find any bodybuilding forums and sources online Iโll list some here:
BB Forums:
UK-Muscle.co.uk Forum
A forum community dedicated to bodybuilding in the UK. Come join the discussion about personal care, health, lifestyles, spirituality, supplementation, shows, diets, medication, research, training, and more!www.uk-muscle.co.uk
Underground Body Building Forum
The most comprehensive bodybuilding forum feature news, announcements, promotions and your input on UGbodybuilding herewww.ugbodybuilding.com
Gear Sources:
Community powered steroid source reviews, forums and more.
We're a steroid source review community. Here since 2009 because unbiased and unpaid opinions are hard to come by.www.eroids.com
This is so that you educate yourself further and really see what others are experiencing and itโs also easier to find reputable sources here.
Keep in mind that there is a chance of the package getting seized or even worse depending on where you buy the HGH from, always try to buy within the country if you got the funds or at least within the continent you live in, only if you donโt have the funds and are okay with the risks then you can opt for the Chinese sources.
Also always check the laws within your country, for most countries itโs legal for personal use but selling or importing them isnโt legal.
Verifying Compounds:
Most sources have like a way to verify their compounds based on the vials, batch codes or anything similar on their site.
Check their site for verifying or just ask other users on bb forums.
Hiding:
Iโll explain how you can store or hide your HGH. Itโs important to keep them hidden protect them from heat and light and most importantly your parents, make sure theyโre stored in a way that doesnโt draw attention and i will give some examples.
View attachment 3686750
This is the best method to keep them in room temp, away from light and also if your parents find it they could not open it as itโs locked. Hide the box itself nicely in somewhere that wonโt draw attention, and there you go thatโs how you could hide HGH in lyophilised form (powder form before reconstitution)
If your parents find it you can always lie and tell them itโs weed/cigars/vape or anything you can come up with thatโs in there, but depending on your family that can also cause a big problem. So be careful with your words and donโt freak out, stay calm.
Costs around $50~ and choose a big size, lock boxes are usually small so a big size is like 30cmX30cm so big enough for all the vials, needles anything.
Now the real risk is after you reconstitute the HGH and it becomes a liquid form which is then injectable, one vial is usually 10iu which is a high dose and shouldnโt be used in my opinion.
So you need to store it cooled/refrigerated so that it doesnโt degrade and so that you can use the remaining liquid later on. There is a few ways for this one each with its own risks so Iโll explain them here.
View attachment 3686777
If you live together with your family you probably canโt just put a vial of HGH in the family fridge so this may be an option. Tell your family you will buy a mini fridge to store your skincare/sodas in there and store the HGH in there, maybe cut a can of soda in half and put the hgh vial in and put the can back together. Be creative with it.
View attachment 3686775
So this one is riskier but another possible option if you canโt store your HGH in a mini fridge. This one is up to you, choose a product that the rest of your family doesnโt use or something youโve bought for yourself and put the vial in it, of course clean it nicely first.
If someone finds it try to calm them down and tell them that itโs for your skin health or think of some other creative reason.
Injection:
This differs from source to source as if you go with pharma you need to inject with a pen which is really simple thats why i will be explaining how to inject from a vial.
Gather Your Supplies
Insulin Syringes: Choose 29โ31 gauge, 0.5 ml or 1 ml syringes with short 8mm needles.
Alcohol Swabs: For disinfecting the vial tops and your skin.
Bacteriostatic Water (BAC Water): To mix your HGH.
Sharps Container: For safe disposal of used needles.
Prepare for Your Injection
Fill Syringe: Clean the vial top with an alcohol swab, then draw the appropriate dose of HGH.
Dosage & Timing: Typically, 5-6 IU is a good starting point. If needed, you can split the dose into two injections (e.g., 3 IU in the morning, 3 IU in the evening). Some prefer injecting only in the evening. You should fill the syringe up till the 30 mark.
Clean the Injection Site
Choose the Site: The belly area, around 3 fingers away from the navel, is a common spot for subcutaneous injections.
Clean the Skin: Use an alcohol swab to clean the chosen area to prevent infection.
Inject HGH
Pinch the Skin: Gently pinch a small fold of skin at the injection site.
Insert the Needle: Insert the needle at a 45-degree angle into the skin.
Inject Slowly: Gently push the plunger to inject the HGH.
Post-Injection: After the injection, remove the needle and apply light pressure with a cotton swab to the site if needed.
Dispose of the Needle
Dispose Properly: Place the used needle in a sharps container or a thick plastic bottle as fast as possible.
Never Reuse: Never attempt to reuse needles, always dispose of them in a safe manner.
Here are some visual demonstrations:
The
Proper HGH Use:
Hereโs a basic HGH only cycle:
Hereโs a advanced compound stack:
Months
Cycle

Cycle
Cycle
Now that we have the HGH all figured out we can move onto how you can use HGH synergistically with other compounds to increase its effectiveness, but this comes with more risks as other compounds cause other sides.
Safety:
Bloodwork:
You should do baseline bloodwork to get a starting point of your health, then follow up after 6 weeks on cycle, and then every few months during the cycle. Hereโs what you should check in the bloodwork:
IGF-1
This is the most direct marker for HGH. As HGH raises IGF-1 levels, checking this will confirm if the HGH isnโt bunk and doing its job and giving you the effects you wanted.
Testosterone Levels
Total Testosterone: This shows your overall testosterone levels.
Free Testosterone: This tells you how much of that testosterone is actually available to be used by your body. You want these levels to be high, but within a healthy normal range.
Estradiol (E2):
Testosterone can turn into estrogen, which can lead to side effects like water retention or gynecomastia. Aromasin is there to prevent this, but you should still check estradiol levels to ensure youโre managing estrogen properly.
Thyroid Function (TSH, Free T4, Free T3)
HGH can speed up the conversion of T4 into T3, which might stress your thyroid. Testing TSH, Free T4, and Free T3 will show how well your thyroid is working. If these get out of balance, it could affect your energy and fat metabolism, thats why you could have some thyroid support in hand just incase.
Lipid Panel (Cholesterol and Triglycerides)
Both testosterone and aromasin can impact cholesterol levels, so itโs important to check your lipid panel. High LDL (bad cholesterol) or low HDL (good cholesterol) could increase your risk for heart issues for later on.
Liver Function (ALT/AST)
Both testosterone and aromasin can stress your liver slightly, so checking liver enzymes ensures your liver is staying healthy.
PCT:
If you donโt plan to use any testosterone or other compounds that suspend natural testosterone levels, then you can basically skip this part as HGH and AI require no pct.
Do you need PCT? No not really most of the time it only helps you recover back faster or can be used to keep your balls alive and not atrophy during the stack. but if you are younger or doing higher/harsher doses or compounds you could benefit from some pct or if you are paranoid of the fact that your balls will atrophy .
You can for example go for some hcg while on the stack or after the stack, but never use SERMs as they stunt growth.
BG (Blood Glucose) Monitor
Wash your hands, insert a strip into the meter, and use the lancet to prick the side of your fingertip. Squeeze out a drop of blood, touch it to the strip, and wait a few seconds for the reading. Thatโs it.
Best times to check: first thing in the morning (fasted) or after meals to see how your body handles carbs.
Experiences:
There arenโt many examples but here are some i could find on the forum:
Thread 'My experience with hgh'
https://looksmax.org/threads/my-experience-with-hgh.971388/
Thread 'My Experience with HGH & height-maxing'
https://looksmax.org/threads/my-experience-with-hgh-height-maxing.20791/
Thread 'Covering all aspects of my heightmaxxing experience, results, tips and struggles'
https://looksmax.org/threads/coveri...xperience-results-tips-and-struggles.1172898/
As you can see some experience no growth while others do.
FAQ:
How many inches of height will i gain?
If your growth plates are still open (If you are in your teens, still showing signs of puberty so youngcells), HGH can actually make you 2-6 inches taller over time depending on your genetics, dosing, and how much growth potential you have left.
If your growth plates are closed (oldcells), HGH wonโt make your bones longer. BUT it can help decompress your spine a little bit and will hydrate the discs that will cause improvement in posture so you might gain like half an inch to maybe an inch max depending on your situation.
Will HGH increase my dick size?
If youโre still developing (like during puberty most of the time below 16), then yes, HGH can indirectly boost penis growth because it boosts overall tissue growth through IGF-1.
If youโre already an adult, HGH wonโt suddenly add new inches. So it wonโt work could make it healthier indirectly tho.
Will HGH improve my frame?
Possibly yes, HGH usage over prolonged periods (around 5โ6 IU ED) can thicken bones particularly your clavicles (your shoulders) and ribs. Over some time your whole frame can start looking broader, thicker, and denser. Itโs one of the most important feature for frame.
Will it make my spine grow?
If your growth plates are still open (puberty/pre-puberty or a really late bloomer), HGH can actually make your spine grow longer, the vertebrae themselves can still lengthen because the plates havenโt fused yet.
But if your growth plates are already closed, HGH wonโt have any physical effect on your spine, because the bones are already fused.
Is it worth it?
There are a lot of risks that come with it and responsibilities you have like bloodwork, and if you want the stack to be even more efficient you need to add the compounds like testosterone which add a lot of risks depending on how you respond.
Even if you are okay with it now there is a high chance youโll regret it later on.
Keep in mind that there are no guarantees for height or bone growth and you wont know how you will respond, and i can confidently say that there is not even one hyper-responder (Someone who responds extremely good) in this whole forum.
As Iโve said earlier you could get all the sides and 0 growth or experience no sides.
I personally believe and itโs probably the truth that you canโt surpass your genetic potential, i just got my HGH today may share my experience on it later on.
Thank you for reading and i hope i couldโve been of some help and clarified some things up for yโall. This shit took like precisely 72 hours

Organ Growth : Similar to cardiomegaly HGH boosts IGF-1, which makes organs grow by forcing their cells to multiply and enlarge over time causing HGH gut.
Study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2763332/
Cartilage Growth : This happens because of higher IGF-1 levels and cartilage in for example the nose and the ears are very sensitive to IGF-1 and are the first bones to show noticeable effect this and grow in size due to this.
Drains Thyroid : HGH increases the conversion of T4 to T3, making the thyroid work harder and eventually causing it to slow down if not supported.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34012834/
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome : HGH can cause fluid retention, swelling in the wrists, and pressure on the median nerve, leading to carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11128896/
Hypoglycemia : HGH lowers insulin sensitivity, so you need carbs to prevent low blood sugar. 10-15 grams of carbs per IU keeps your blood sugar stable and avoids symptoms like shakiness and dizziness.
What Iโm trying to say here is that only use HGH if you are okay with the risks of these cons and if the pros adjust to your goals.
Prices:
The price of HGH really depends on the quality and where youโre buying it from. Some cheaper options are lower quality but they might not be as pure or maybe even under dosed. The better, higher quality (pharma) HGH costs more because itโs made with higher standards and is usually safer and more effective.

Pharma (Pharmaceutical Grade) HGH
Prices range from $150 - $350+
For 36 iu of Genotropin (HGH Pen)
View attachment 3685336
Generic UGL (Underground Lab) HGH
Prices range from $100 - $200+
For 100 iu (usually with BAC Water)
View attachment 3684651
Generic Chinese HGH
Prices range from $50 - $100+
For 100 iu (without BAC Water)
Lets say you choose to use 6iu ed (everyday) that means that 100iu only gets you 16 days so you need 2 kits which is 200iu that will get you 30+ days and depending on where your buying from it should be $100 - $700 monthly.
So my advice is to have the money ready as you need at least 6-12 month of HGH for any noticeable change on height / bones
Differences:
(Varies)
Other Costs:

Insulin Syringes
(29โ31 gauge, 0.5 ml or 1 ml)
Cost: Around $5 - $15+ for a pack of 100 syringes.
Note: Prices can vary based on needle size and quantity, with some packs offering a mix of sizes.
View attachment 3685312
Alcohol Swabs
Cost: Around $3 - $10+ for a pack of 100 swabs.
Note: Single-use, affordable, and widely available at most pharmacies or online.
View attachment 3685323
Bacteriostatic Water (BAC Water)
Cost: Around $5 - $15 for a 10 ml vial.
Note: You only need a small amount each time you mix HGH, so a single vial can last for a long time.
View attachment 3685327
Thyroid Support (T4)
Cost: Around $10 - $40+
per month, depending on the brand and dosage (e.g., 50 mcg tablets).
Note: Prices can vary significantly based on the brand and whether you get a prescription or use over-the-counter options.
View attachment 3685333
Sharps Container
Cost: Around โฌ5โโฌ10+ for a small sharps container.
Alternative: If you use a thick plastic bottle, you can save money, but make sure itโs durable and can be sealed properly to prevent accidents.
So a total monthly cost ranges from $35 - $75+ for these extra costs.
Source:
โWhere can I buy HGH?โ This is asked by greys all the time. The truth is simple: If you canโt find a source, you shouldnโt be using HGH. Use Google and search โbuy HGH [your country]โkeep it simple. You can also find domestic sources through bodybuilding forums. For Chinese generics, look for threads on bodybuilding forums and choose one thats reputable.
If you insist that you canโt find any bodybuilding forums and sources online Iโll list some here:
BB Forums:
UK-Muscle.co.uk Forum
A forum community dedicated to bodybuilding in the UK. Come join the discussion about personal care, health, lifestyles, spirituality, supplementation, shows, diets, medication, research, training, and more!Underground Body Building Forum
The most comprehensive bodybuilding forum feature news, announcements, promotions and your input on UGbodybuilding herewww.ugbodybuilding.com
Gear Sources:
Community powered steroid source reviews, forums and more.
We're a steroid source review community. Here since 2009 because unbiased and unpaid opinions are hard to come by.
This is so that you educate yourself further and really see what others are experiencing and itโs also easier to find reputable sources here.
Keep in mind that there is a chance of the package getting seized or even worse depending on where you buy the HGH from, always try to buy within the country if you got the funds or at least within the continent you live in, only if you donโt have the funds and are okay with the risks then you can opt for the Chinese sources.
Also always check the laws within your country, for most countries itโs legal for personal use but selling or importing them isnโt legal.
Verifying Compounds:
Most sources have like a way to verify their compounds based on the vials, batch codes or anything similar on their site.
Check their site for verifying or just ask other users on bb forums.
Hiding:
Iโll explain how you can store or hide your HGH. Itโs important to keep them hidden protect them from heat and light and most importantly your parents, make sure theyโre stored in a way that doesnโt draw attention and i will give some examples.
View attachment 3686750
This is the best method to keep them in room temp, away from light and also if your parents find it they could not open it as itโs locked. Hide the box itself nicely in somewhere that wonโt draw attention, and there you go thatโs how you could hide HGH in lyophilised form (powder form before reconstitution)
If your parents find it you can always lie and tell them itโs weed/cigars/vape or anything you can come up with thatโs in there, but depending on your family that can also cause a big problem. So be careful with your words and donโt freak out, stay calm.
Costs around $50~ and choose a big size, lock boxes are usually small so a big size is like 30cmX30cm so big enough for all the vials, needles anything.
Now the real risk is after you reconstitute the HGH and it becomes a liquid form which is then injectable, one vial is usually 10iu which is a high dose and shouldnโt be used in my opinion.
So you need to store it cooled/refrigerated so that it doesnโt degrade and so that you can use the remaining liquid later on. There is a few ways for this one each with its own risks so Iโll explain them here.
View attachment 3686777
If you live together with your family you probably canโt just put a vial of HGH in the family fridge so this may be an option. Tell your family you will buy a mini fridge to store your skincare/sodas in there and store the HGH in there, maybe cut a can of soda in half and put the hgh vial in and put the can back together. Be creative with it.
View attachment 3686775
So this one is riskier but another possible option if you canโt store your HGH in a mini fridge. This one is up to you, choose a product that the rest of your family doesnโt use or something youโve bought for yourself and put the vial in it, of course clean it nicely first.
If someone finds it try to calm them down and tell them that itโs for your skin health or think of some other creative reason.
Injection:
This differs from source to source as if you go with pharma you need to inject with a pen which is really simple thats why i will be explaining how to inject from a vial.
Gather Your Supplies
Insulin Syringes: Choose 29โ31 gauge, 0.5 ml or 1 ml syringes with short 8mm needles.
Alcohol Swabs: For disinfecting the vial tops and your skin.
Bacteriostatic Water (BAC Water): To mix your HGH.
Sharps Container: For safe disposal of used needles.
Prepare for Your Injection
Fill Syringe: Clean the vial top with an alcohol swab, then draw the appropriate dose of HGH.
Dosage & Timing: Typically, 5-6 IU is a good starting point. If needed, you can split the dose into two injections (e.g., 3 IU in the morning, 3 IU in the evening). Some prefer injecting only in the evening. You should fill the syringe up till the 30 mark.
Clean the Injection Site
Choose the Site: The belly area, around 3 fingers away from the navel, is a common spot for subcutaneous injections.
Clean the Skin: Use an alcohol swab to clean the chosen area to prevent infection.
Inject HGH
Pinch the Skin: Gently pinch a small fold of skin at the injection site.
Insert the Needle: Insert the needle at a 45-degree angle into the skin.
Inject Slowly: Gently push the plunger to inject the HGH.
Post-Injection: After the injection, remove the needle and apply light pressure with a cotton swab to the site if needed.
Dispose of the Needle
Dispose Properly: Place the used needle in a sharps container or a thick plastic bottle as fast as possible.
Never Reuse: Never attempt to reuse needles, always dispose of them in a safe manner.
Here are some visual demonstrations:
The
Proper HGH Use:
Hereโs a basic HGH only cycle:
Hereโs a advanced compound stack:
Months
Cycle
Cycle
Cycle
Cycle
Cycle
Now that we have the HGH all figured out we can move onto how you can use HGH synergistically with other compounds to increase its effectiveness, but this comes with more risks as other compounds cause other sides.
Safety:
Bloodwork:
You should do baseline bloodwork to get a starting point of your health, then follow up after 6 weeks on cycle, and then every few months during the cycle. Hereโs what you should check in the bloodwork:
IGF-1
This is the most direct marker for HGH. As HGH raises IGF-1 levels, checking this will confirm if the HGH isnโt bunk and doing its job and giving you the effects you wanted.
Testosterone Levels
Total Testosterone: This shows your overall testosterone levels.
Free Testosterone: This tells you how much of that testosterone is actually available to be used by your body. You want these levels to be high, but within a healthy normal range.
Estradiol (E2):
Testosterone can turn into estrogen, which can lead to side effects like water retention or gynecomastia. Aromasin is there to prevent this, but you should still check estradiol levels to ensure youโre managing estrogen properly.
Thyroid Function (TSH, Free T4, Free T3)
HGH can speed up the conversion of T4 into T3, which might stress your thyroid. Testing TSH, Free T4, and Free T3 will show how well your thyroid is working. If these get out of balance, it could affect your energy and fat metabolism, thats why you could have some thyroid support in hand just incase.
Lipid Panel (Cholesterol and Triglycerides)
Both testosterone and aromasin can impact cholesterol levels, so itโs important to check your lipid panel. High LDL (bad cholesterol) or low HDL (good cholesterol) could increase your risk for heart issues for later on.
Liver Function (ALT/AST)
Both testosterone and aromasin can stress your liver slightly, so checking liver enzymes ensures your liver is staying healthy.
PCT:
If you donโt plan to use any testosterone or other compounds that suspend natural testosterone levels, then you can basically skip this part as HGH and AI require no pct.
Do you need PCT? No not really most of the time it only helps you recover back faster or can be used to keep your balls alive and not atrophy during the stack. but if you are younger or doing higher/harsher doses or compounds you could benefit from some pct or if you are paranoid of the fact that your balls will atrophy .
You can for example go for some hcg while on the stack or after the stack, but never use SERMs as they stunt growth.
BG (Blood Glucose) Monitor
Wash your hands, insert a strip into the meter, and use the lancet to prick the side of your fingertip. Squeeze out a drop of blood, touch it to the strip, and wait a few seconds for the reading. Thatโs it.
Best times to check: first thing in the morning (fasted) or after meals to see how your body handles carbs.
Experiences:
There arenโt many examples but here are some i could find on the forum:
Thread 'My experience with hgh'
https://looksmax.org/threads/my-experience-with-hgh.971388/
Thread 'My Experience with HGH & height-maxing'
https://looksmax.org/threads/my-experience-with-hgh-height-maxing.20791/
Thread 'Covering all aspects of my heightmaxxing experience, results, tips and struggles'
https://looksmax.org/threads/coveri...xperience-results-tips-and-struggles.1172898/
As you can see some experience no growth while others do.
FAQ:
How many inches of height will i gain?
If your growth plates are still open (If you are in your teens, still showing signs of puberty so youngcells), HGH can actually make you 2-6 inches taller over time depending on your genetics, dosing, and how much growth potential you have left.
If your growth plates are closed (oldcells), HGH wonโt make your bones longer. BUT it can help decompress your spine a little bit and will hydrate the discs that will cause improvement in posture so you might gain like half an inch to maybe an inch max depending on your situation.
Will HGH increase my dick size?
If youโre still developing (like during puberty most of the time below 16), then yes, HGH can indirectly boost penis growth because it boosts overall tissue growth through IGF-1.
If youโre already an adult, HGH wonโt suddenly add new inches. So it wonโt work could make it healthier indirectly tho.
Will HGH improve my frame?
Possibly yes, HGH usage over prolonged periods (around 5โ6 IU ED) can thicken bones particularly your clavicles (your shoulders) and ribs. Over some time your whole frame can start looking broader, thicker, and denser. Itโs one of the most important feature for frame.
Will it make my spine grow?
If your growth plates are still open (puberty/pre-puberty or a really late bloomer), HGH can actually make your spine grow longer, the vertebrae themselves can still lengthen because the plates havenโt fused yet.
But if your growth plates are already closed, HGH wonโt have any physical effect on your spine, because the bones are already fused.
Is it worth it?
There are a lot of risks that come with it and responsibilities you have like bloodwork, and if you want the stack to be even more efficient you need to add the compounds like testosterone which add a lot of risks depending on how you respond.
Even if you are okay with it now there is a high chance youโll regret it later on.
Keep in mind that there are no guarantees for height or bone growth and you wont know how you will respond, and i can confidently say that there is not even one hyper-responder (Someone who responds extremely good) in this whole forum.
As Iโve said earlier you could get all the sides and 0 growth or experience no sides.
I personally believe and itโs probably the truth that you canโt surpass your genetic potential, i just got my HGH today may share my experience on it later on.
Thank you for reading and i hope i couldโve been of some help and clarified some things up for yโall. This shit took like precisely 72 hours

You freaked me off, I've read some papers and all of them only talk about 1st generation SERMs, which have direct antiestrogenic effects on growth plates, which cause chondrocyte apoptosis. (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17293177/)
Also, i've found this thesis which explains in detail the hormonal relationships that affect growth plates, and the only one that seems to affect growth plates, and potentially stunt growth is tamoxifen. (https://openarchive.ki.se/articles/...growth_plate_cartilage/26905303?file=48947896)
Enclomiphene is a pretty pure SERM, only thing it does is block the estrogenic feedback loop in the hypothalamus, so it produces more lh/fsh -> more test -> more e2 because it thinks you don't have enough. In all studies done on enclo, it improved the T/E ratio.
(https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8803167/#:~:text=Moreover%2C%20the%20T%2FE%20ratio,hypogonadism%20increased%20after%20clomiphene%20use.)
(this study was done on clomiphene tho, which is the dirtier version of enclomiphene, contains the estrogenic stereoisomer zuclomiphene, which is the main culprit of most of the nasty side effects.)
Hope you can give me some insight on this!

btw only bad thing about them, which is probably why you heard they stunt growth, is because enclo tanks igf-1 in the long run (1+ years tho)Havenโt really done research on SERMs myself ngl, kept hearing that it stunts growth so i assumed it did.

Thanks man
This guy tanked his IGF-1 levels to ZERO, stopped enclo and raised his gh levels naturally (), he also used to be playing with his dosages, experimenting and took it for over 1 year I think
Rn im taking enclo paired with mk677, so the mk counteracts the igf-1 supression from enclo, and gives a small boost to gh (not expecting nothing crazy as of right now, just slight improvements, specially interested on hunger effects, and enclo to keep my test raised from 10mg oxandrolone to accelerate bone age (im 1.5 years delayed)). So far so good, I'm getting a lot stronger in the gym, muscles been growing faster, the water retention is not that crazy, and havent got any diabetic symptoms as of right now. I'm getting a blood test in a few days, so I may make a thread talking about it.
Thanks for the effort again bhai!

Thanks bhai will check it out further tomorrow, that is possibly the truth but will double check myself.
Btw the hunger effects on mk really did work for me but the water retention was not something i expected to be noticeable but it was. Seems like a nicely organised/reasonable stack man nice, make sure to tag me.
Thanks you as well man.

This information is for educational purposes only. The use of substances like HGH, Testosterone, and Aromasin carries potential risks and should be done under the supervision of a healthcare professional. Always consult with a doctor before starting any cycle, and be aware of the possible side effects and health risks involved, the doctors legally canโt involve anyone else like your parents or talk to your compound usage to someone other than you.
Introduction:
Hello bhai, this is my first guide on the forum and i wanted to make it about HGH as so many greys are obsessed with it and ask the same questions on a daily basis.
I will cover every single aspect from sourcing HGH to injecting it, and also i will explain all the pros and cons here with studies backing them up so you understand the risks and what HGH actually does in the body.

HGH Human Growth Hormone:
Exogenous HGH is synthetic human growth hormone, a peptide made up of 191 amino acids, thatโs injected into the body to replicate the natural growth hormone produced by your pituitary gland. It helps boost muscle development, fat burning, recovery, bone growth, and even improves skin health by promoting cell regeneration. Unlike oral supplements, exogenous HGH is directly absorbed into the bloodstream for maximum effectiveness. Itโs commonly used by athletes, bodybuilders, and those seeking anti-aging benefits, but itโs important to use it right and manage the doses to avoid potential side effects.

The Pros and Cons:
Hgh, like anything in life it also has its pros and cons, and how you respond depends a lot on your genetics. Some people see great results with better muscle, fat loss, skin, bone mass and a few inches of height while others might deal with side effects like bloating or joint issues without gaining an inch. Everyoneโs body is different, so how you respond can vary

Pros:
Muscle Growth : HGH boosts IGF-1, which grows muscle cells, speeds up recovery, increases protein synthesis, burns fat, and makes muscles look bigger by pulling more water into them.

Recovery : HGH speeds up recovery, which means you heal faster after tough workouts or injuries. This helps you get back to training quicker, without feeling as sore or tired.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19480608/#:~:text=Results: Current evidence suggests,used in critically ill patients
Anti-Aging Effects : HGH can make your skin look younger by improving elasticity and reducing wrinkles. It also helps your body produce collagen, which keeps skin and joints healthy.
Study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10515129/#:~:text=Skin tends to be pale,,LDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B
Stronger Bones : HGH can help make your bones stronger by improving bone density. This is especially helpful as you age, reducing the risk of fractures and keeping your bones healthy and strong.
Study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10515129/#:~:text=Growth hormone ,negatively affects longitudinal bone growth
Bone and Height Growth (For youngcells): If youโre still growing, HGH can help make your bones longer which can increase your height. This is most effective while your growth plates are still open typically in childhood and adolescence. Once your growth plates close (oldcells), HGH can no longer increase height but can still support bone health and density.
Study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9121936/#:~:text=The high,(9.5%) and
Better Sleep : HGH helps improve sleep quality, so you get deeper, more restful sleep. Better sleep means you wake up feeling more refreshed and energized, which supports your overall health and recovery.

Cons:
Acromegaly : If dosed higher than two digits (10+) and used for prolonged periods there is a chance for developing acromegaly-like features, enlarged jaw, prominent brow/forehead, enlarged hands/feet, and coarse facial features
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14974923/
Cardiomegaly : Heart enlargement from HGH happens because HGH and IGF-1 stimulate heart muscle growth (hypertrophy), and over time, excessive growth can make the heart less efficient and strain its function, as the heart is also an muscle.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11932297/
Bloat : Bloat on HGH happens mainly because HGH increases water retention by boosting sodium retention and raising levels of a hormone called aldosterone, leading to fluid buildup in the skin and tissues.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11932310/
Organ Growth : Similar to cardiomegaly HGH boosts IGF-1, which makes organs grow by forcing their cells to multiply and enlarge over time causing HGH gut.
Study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2763332/
Cartilage Growth : This happens because of higher IGF-1 levels and cartilage in for example the nose and the ears are very sensitive to IGF-1 and are the first bones to show noticeable effect this and grow in size due to this.
Drains Thyroid : HGH increases the conversion of T4 to T3, making the thyroid work harder and eventually causing it to slow down if not supported.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34012834/
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome : HGH can cause fluid retention, swelling in the wrists, and pressure on the median nerve, leading to carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11128896/
Hypoglycemia : HGH lowers insulin sensitivity, so you need carbs to prevent low blood sugar. 10-15 grams of carbs per IU keeps your blood sugar stable and avoids symptoms like shakiness and dizziness.
What Iโm trying to say here is that only use HGH if you are okay with the risks of these cons and if the pros adjust to your goals.
Prices:
The price of HGH really depends on the quality and where youโre buying it from. Some cheaper options are lower quality but they might not be as pure or maybe even under dosed. The better, higher quality (pharma) HGH costs more because itโs made with higher standards and is usually safer and more effective.

Lets say you choose to use 6iu ed (everyday) that means that 100iu only gets you 16 days so you need 2 kits which is 200iu that will get you 30+ days and depending on where your buying from it should be $100 - $700 monthly.
So my advice is to have the money ready as you need at least 6-12 month of HGH for any noticeable change on height / bones

โWhere can I buy HGH?โ This is asked by greys all the time. The truth is simple: If you canโt find a source, you shouldnโt be using HGH. Use Google and search โbuy HGH [your country]โkeep it simple. You can also find domestic sources through bodybuilding forums. For Chinese generics, look for threads on bodybuilding forums and choose one thats reputable.
If you insist that you canโt find any bodybuilding forums and sources online Iโll list some here:

Community powered steroid source reviews, forums and more.
We're a steroid source review community. Here since 2009 because unbiased and unpaid opinions are hard to come by.
This is so that you educate yourself further and really see what others are experiencing and itโs also easier to find reputable sources here.
Keep in mind that there is a chance of the package getting seized or even worse depending on where you buy the HGH from, always try to buy within the country if you got the funds or at least within the continent you live in, only if you donโt have the funds and are okay with the risks then you can opt for the Chinese sources.
Also always check the laws within your country, for most countries itโs legal for personal use but selling or importing them isnโt legal.
Verifying Compounds:
Most sources have like a way to verify their compounds based on the vials, batch codes or anything similar on their site.
Check their site for verifying or just ask other users on bb forums.
Hiding:
Iโll explain how you can store or hide your HGH. Itโs important to keep them hidden protect them from heat and light and most importantly your parents, make sure theyโre stored in a way that doesnโt draw attention and i will give some examples.
View attachment 3686750
This is the best method to keep them in room temp, away from light and also if your parents find it they could not open it as itโs locked. Hide the box itself nicely in somewhere that wonโt draw attention, and there you go thatโs how you could hide HGH in lyophilised form (powder form before reconstitution)
If your parents find it you can always lie and tell them itโs weed/cigars/vape or anything you can come up with thatโs in there, but depending on your family that can also cause a big problem. So be careful with your words and donโt freak out, stay calm.
Costs around $50~ and choose a big size, lock boxes are usually small so a big size is like 30cmX30cm so big enough for all the vials, needles anything.
Now the real risk is after you reconstitute the HGH and it becomes a liquid form which is then injectable, one vial is usually 10iu which is a high dose and shouldnโt be used in my opinion.
So you need to store it cooled/refrigerated so that it doesnโt degrade and so that you can use the remaining liquid later on. There is a few ways for this one each with its own risks so Iโll explain them here.
View attachment 3686777
If you live together with your family you probably canโt just put a vial of HGH in the family fridge so this may be an option. Tell your family you will buy a mini fridge to store your skincare/sodas in there and store the HGH in there, maybe cut a can of soda in half and put the hgh vial in and put the can back together. Be creative with it.

So this one is riskier but another possible option if you canโt store your HGH in a mini fridge. This one is up to you, choose a product that the rest of your family doesnโt use or something youโve bought for yourself and put the vial in it, of course clean it nicely first.
If someone finds it try to calm them down and tell them that itโs for your skin health or think of some other creative reason.
Injection:
This differs from source to source as if you go with pharma you need to inject with a pen which is really simple thats why i will be explaining how to inject from a vial.
Gather Your Supplies
Insulin Syringes: Choose 29โ31 gauge, 0.5 ml or 1 ml syringes with short 8mm needles.
Alcohol Swabs: For disinfecting the vial tops and your skin.
Bacteriostatic Water (BAC Water): To mix your HGH.
Sharps Container: For safe disposal of used needles.
Prepare for Your Injection
Fill Syringe: Clean the vial top with an alcohol swab, then draw the appropriate dose of HGH.
Dosage & Timing: Typically, 5-6 IU is a good starting point. If needed, you can split the dose into two injections (e.g., 3 IU in the morning, 3 IU in the evening). Some prefer injecting only in the evening. You should fill the syringe up till the 30 mark.
Clean the Injection Site
Choose the Site: The belly area, around 3 fingers away from the navel, is a common spot for subcutaneous injections.
Clean the Skin: Use an alcohol swab to clean the chosen area to prevent infection.
Inject HGH
Pinch the Skin: Gently pinch a small fold of skin at the injection site.
Insert the Needle: Insert the needle at a 45-degree angle into the skin.
Inject Slowly: Gently push the plunger to inject the HGH.
Post-Injection: After the injection, remove the needle and apply light pressure with a cotton swab to the site if needed.
Dispose of the Needle
Dispose Properly: Place the used needle in a sharps container or a thick plastic bottle as fast as possible.
Never Reuse: Never attempt to reuse needles, always dispose of them in a safe manner.
Here are some visual demonstrations:
The
Proper HGH Use:
Hereโs a basic HGH only cycle:
Hereโs a advanced compound stack:
Months

Cycle
Cycle
Cycle
Now that we have the HGH all figured out we can move onto how you can use HGH synergistically with other compounds to increase its effectiveness, but this comes with more risks as other compounds cause other sides.
Safety:
Bloodwork:
You should do baseline bloodwork to get a starting point of your health, then follow up after 6 weeks on cycle, and then every few months during the cycle. Hereโs what you should check in the bloodwork:
IGF-1
This is the most direct marker for HGH. As HGH raises IGF-1 levels, checking this will confirm if the HGH isnโt bunk and doing its job and giving you the effects you wanted.
Testosterone Levels
Total Testosterone: This shows your overall testosterone levels.
Free Testosterone: This tells you how much of that testosterone is actually available to be used by your body. You want these levels to be high, but within a healthy normal range.
Estradiol (E2):
Testosterone can turn into estrogen, which can lead to side effects like water retention or gynecomastia. Aromasin is there to prevent this, but you should still check estradiol levels to ensure youโre managing estrogen properly.
Thyroid Function (TSH, Free T4, Free T3)
HGH can speed up the conversion of T4 into T3, which might stress your thyroid. Testing TSH, Free T4, and Free T3 will show how well your thyroid is working. If these get out of balance, it could affect your energy and fat metabolism, thats why you could have some thyroid support in hand just incase.
Lipid Panel (Cholesterol and Triglycerides)
Both testosterone and aromasin can impact cholesterol levels, so itโs important to check your lipid panel. High LDL (bad cholesterol) or low HDL (good cholesterol) could increase your risk for heart issues for later on.
Liver Function (ALT/AST)
Both testosterone and aromasin can stress your liver slightly, so checking liver enzymes ensures your liver is staying healthy.
PCT:
If you donโt plan to use any testosterone or other compounds that suspend natural testosterone levels, then you can basically skip this part as HGH and AI require no pct.
Do you need PCT? No not really most of the time it only helps you recover back faster or can be used to keep your balls alive and not atrophy during the stack. but if you are younger or doing higher/harsher doses or compounds you could benefit from some pct or if you are paranoid of the fact that your balls will atrophy .
You can for example go for some hcg while on the stack or after the stack, but never use SERMs as they may stunt growth (not sure).
BG (Blood Glucose) Monitor
Wash your hands, insert a strip into the meter, and use the lancet to prick the side of your fingertip. Squeeze out a drop of blood, touch it to the strip, and wait a few seconds for the reading. Thatโs it.
Best times to check: first thing in the morning (fasted) or after meals to see how your body handles carbs.
Experiences:
There arenโt many examples but here are some i could find on the forum:
Thread 'My experience with hgh'
https://looksmax.org/threads/my-experience-with-hgh.971388/
Thread 'My Experience with HGH & height-maxing'
https://looksmax.org/threads/my-experience-with-hgh-height-maxing.20791/
Thread 'Covering all aspects of my heightmaxxing experience, results, tips and struggles'
https://looksmax.org/threads/coveri...xperience-results-tips-and-struggles.1172898/
As you can see some experience no growth while others do.
FAQ:
How many inches of height will i gain?
If your growth plates are still open (If you are in your teens, still showing signs of puberty so youngcells), HGH can actually make you 2-6 inches taller over time depending on your genetics, dosing, and how much growth potential you have left.
If your growth plates are closed (oldcells), HGH wonโt make your bones longer. BUT it can help decompress your spine a little bit and will hydrate the discs that will cause improvement in posture so you might gain like half an inch to maybe an inch max depending on your situation.
Will HGH increase my dick size?
If youโre still developing (like during puberty most of the time below 16), then yes, HGH can indirectly boost penis growth because it boosts overall tissue growth through IGF-1.
If youโre already an adult, HGH wonโt suddenly add new inches. So it wonโt work could make it healthier indirectly tho.
Will HGH improve my frame?
Possibly yes, HGH usage over prolonged periods (around 5โ6 IU ED) can thicken bones particularly your clavicles (your shoulders) and ribs. Over some time your whole frame can start looking broader, thicker, and denser. Itโs one of the most important feature for frame.
Will it make my spine grow?
If your growth plates are still open (puberty/pre-puberty or a really late bloomer), HGH can actually make your spine grow longer, the vertebrae themselves can still lengthen because the plates havenโt fused yet.
But if your growth plates are already closed, HGH wonโt have any physical effect on your spine, because the bones are already fused.
Is it worth it?
There are a lot of risks that come with it and responsibilities you have like bloodwork, and if you want the stack to be even more efficient you need to add the compounds like testosterone which add a lot of risks depending on how you respond.
Even if you are okay with it now there is a high chance youโll regret it later on.
Keep in mind that there are no guarantees for height or bone growth and you wont know how you will respond, and i can confidently say that there is not even one hyper-responder (Someone who responds extremely good) in this whole forum.
As Iโve said earlier you could get all the sides and 0 growth or experience no sides.
I personally believe and itโs probably the truth that you canโt surpass your genetic potential, i just got my HGH today may share my experience on it later on.
Thank you for reading and i hope i couldโve been of some help and clarified some things up for yโall. This shit took like precisely 72 hours

I mean if you use it correctly you will benefit from it but i donโt think it would be enough for bone growth.

Always consult with a doctor before starting any cycle, and be aware of the possible side effects and health risks involved, the doctors legally canโt involve anyone else like your parents or talk to your compound usage to someone other than you.
Introduction:
Hello bhai, this is my first guide on the forum and i wanted to make it about HGH as so many greys are obsessed with it and ask the same questions on a daily basis.
I will cover every single aspect from sourcing HGH to injecting it, and also i will explain all the pros and cons here with studies backing them up so you understand the risks and what HGH actually does in the body.

HGH Human Growth Hormone:
Exogenous HGH is synthetic human growth hormone, a peptide made up of 191 amino acids, thatโs injected into the body to replicate the natural growth hormone produced by your pituitary gland. It helps boost muscle development, fat burning, recovery, bone growth, and even improves skin health by promoting cell regeneration. Unlike oral supplements, exogenous HGH is directly absorbed into the bloodstream for maximum effectiveness. Itโs commonly used by athletes, bodybuilders, and those seeking anti-aging benefits, but itโs important to use it right and manage the doses to avoid potential side effects.

The Pros and Cons:
Hgh, like anything in life it also has its pros and cons, and how you respond depends a lot on your genetics. Some people see great results with better muscle, fat loss, skin, bone mass and a few inches of height while others might deal with side effects like bloating or joint issues without gaining an inch. Everyoneโs body is different, so how you respond can vary

Pros:
Muscle Growth : HGH boosts IGF-1, which grows muscle cells, speeds up recovery, increases protein synthesis, burns fat, and makes muscles look bigger by pulling more water into them.
Study:Quality of life, body composition and muscle strength in adult growth hormone deficiency: the influence of growth hormone replacement therapy for up to 3 years - PubMed
GH replacement treatment for 6-12 months leads to significant improvements in body composition (DEXA) but longer-term treatment may be needed to increase muscle strength. Self-esteem scores improve and are maintained after 3 years of treatment. Energy levels and emotional reaction improve during...
Fat Loss : HGH helps your body burn fat more efficiently by breaking down fat stores for energy. This means you can lose fat and get leaner, while still keeping your muscle mass.
Study:Effects of Recombinant Human Growth Hormone Therapy in Obesity in Adults: A Metaanalysis
AbstractObjective: To conduct a metaanalysis of human studies examining the efficacy and safety of recombinant human GH (rhGH) as therapy for obesity in adults.Design: A thorough search of the literature (including MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Register) was performed for pertinent studies...
Recovery : HGH speeds up recovery, which means you heal faster after tough workouts or injuries. This helps you get back to training quicker, without feeling as sore or tired.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19480608/#:~:text=Results: Current evidence suggests,used in critically ill patients
Anti-Aging Effects : HGH can make your skin look younger by improving elasticity and reducing wrinkles. It also helps your body produce collagen, which keeps skin and joints healthy.
Study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10515129/#:~:text=Skin tends to be pale,,LDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B
Stronger Bones : HGH can help make your bones stronger by improving bone density. This is especially helpful as you age, reducing the risk of fractures and keeping your bones healthy and strong.
Study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10515129/#:~:text=Growth hormone ,negatively affects longitudinal bone growth
Bone and Height Growth (For youngcells): If youโre still growing, HGH can help make your bones longer which can increase your height. This is most effective while your growth plates are still open typically in childhood and adolescence. Once your growth plates close (oldcells), HGH can no longer increase height but can still support bone health and density.
Study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9121936/#:~:text=The high,(9.5%) and
Better Sleep : HGH helps improve sleep quality, so you get deeper, more restful sleep. Better sleep means you wake up feeling more refreshed and energized, which supports your overall health and recovery.

Cons:
Acromegaly : If dosed higher than two digits (10+) and used for prolonged periods there is a chance for developing acromegaly-like features, enlarged jaw, prominent brow/forehead, enlarged hands/feet, and coarse facial features
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14974923/
Cardiomegaly : Heart enlargement from HGH happens because HGH and IGF-1 stimulate heart muscle growth (hypertrophy), and over time, excessive growth can make the heart less efficient and strain its function, as the heart is also an muscle.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11932297/
Bloat : Bloat on HGH happens mainly because HGH increases water retention by boosting sodium retention and raising levels of a hormone called aldosterone, leading to fluid buildup in the skin and tissues.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11932310/
Organ Growth : Similar to cardiomegaly HGH boosts IGF-1, which makes organs grow by forcing their cells to multiply and enlarge over time causing HGH gut.
Study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2763332/
Cartilage Growth : This happens because of higher IGF-1 levels and cartilage in for example the nose and the ears are very sensitive to IGF-1 and are the first bones to show noticeable effect this and grow in size due to this.
Drains Thyroid : HGH increases the conversion of T4 to T3, making the thyroid work harder and eventually causing it to slow down if not supported.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34012834/
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome : HGH can cause fluid retention, swelling in the wrists, and pressure on the median nerve, leading to carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11128896/

Post-Injection: After the injection, remove the needle and apply light pressure with a cotton swab to the site if needed.
Dispose of the Needle
Dispose Properly: Place the used needle in a sharps container or a thick plastic bottle as fast as possible.
Never Reuse: Never attempt to reuse needles, always dispose of them in a safe manner.
Here are some visual demonstrations:

Proper HGH Use:
Hereโs a basic HGH only cycle:
Hereโs a advanced compound stack:

Cycle
Now that we have the HGH all figured out we can move onto how you can use HGH synergistically with other compounds to increase its effectiveness, but this comes with more risks as other compounds cause other sides.
Safety:
Bloodwork:
You should do baseline bloodwork to get a starting point of your health, then follow up after 6 weeks on cycle, and then every few months during the cycle. Hereโs what you should check in the bloodwork:
IGF-1
This is the most direct marker for HGH. As HGH raises IGF-1 levels, checking this will confirm if the HGH isnโt bunk and doing its job and giving you the effects you wanted.
Testosterone Levels
Total Testosterone: This shows your overall testosterone levels.
Free Testosterone: This tells you how much of that testosterone is actually available to be used by your body. You want these levels to be high, but within a healthy normal range.
Estradiol (E2):
Testosterone can turn into estrogen, which can lead to side effects like water retention or gynecomastia. Aromasin is there to prevent this, but you should still check estradiol levels to ensure youโre managing estrogen properly.
Thyroid Function (TSH, Free T4, Free T3)
HGH can speed up the conversion of T4 into T3, which might stress your thyroid. Testing TSH, Free T4, and Free T3 will show how well your thyroid is working. If these get out of balance, it could affect your energy and fat metabolism, thats why you could have some thyroid support in hand just incase.
Lipid Panel (Cholesterol and Triglycerides)
Both testosterone and aromasin can impact cholesterol levels, so itโs important to check your lipid panel. High LDL (bad cholesterol) or low HDL (good cholesterol) could increase your risk for heart issues for later on.
Liver Function (ALT/AST)
Both testosterone and aromasin can stress your liver slightly, so checking liver enzymes ensures your liver is staying healthy.
PCT:
If you donโt plan to use any testosterone or other compounds that suspend natural testosterone levels, then you can basically skip this part as HGH and AI require no pct.
Do you need PCT? No not really most of the time it only helps you recover back faster or can be used to keep your balls alive and not atrophy during the stack. but if you are younger or doing higher/harsher doses or compounds you could benefit from some pct or if you are paranoid of the fact that your balls will atrophy .
You can for example go for some hcg while on the stack or after the stack, but never use SERMs as they may stunt growth (not sure).
BG (Blood Glucose) Monitor
Wash your hands, insert a strip into the meter, and use the lancet to prick the side of your fingertip. Squeeze out a drop of blood, touch it to the strip, and wait a few seconds for the reading. Thatโs it.
Best times to check: first thing in the morning (fasted) or after meals to see how your body handles carbs.
Experiences:
There arenโt many examples but here are some i could find on the forum:
Thread 'My experience with hgh'
https://looksmax.org/threads/my-experience-with-hgh.971388/
Thread 'My Experience with HGH & height-maxing'
https://looksmax.org/threads/my-experience-with-hgh-height-maxing.20791/
Thread 'Covering all aspects of my heightmaxxing experience, results, tips and struggles'
https://looksmax.org/threads/coveri...xperience-results-tips-and-struggles.1172898/
As you can see some experience no growth while others do.
FAQ:
How many inches of height will i gain?
If your growth plates are still open (If you are in your teens, still showing signs of puberty so youngcells), HGH can actually make you 2-6 inches taller over time depending on your genetics, dosing, and how much growth potential you have left.
If your growth plates are closed (oldcells), HGH wonโt make your bones longer. BUT it can help decompress your spine a little bit and will hydrate the discs that will cause improvement in posture so you might gain like half an inch to maybe an inch max depending on your situation.
Will HGH increase my dick size?
If youโre still developing (like during puberty most of the time below 16), then yes, HGH can indirectly boost penis growth because it boosts overall tissue growth through IGF-1.
If youโre already an adult, HGH wonโt suddenly add new inches. So it wonโt work could make it healthier indirectly tho.
Will HGH improve my frame?
Possibly yes, HGH usage over prolonged periods (around 5โ6 IU ED) can thicken bones particularly your clavicles (your shoulders) and ribs. Over some time your whole frame can start looking broader, thicker, and denser. Itโs one of the most important feature for frame.
Will it make my spine grow?
If your growth plates are still open (puberty/pre-puberty or a really late bloomer), HGH can actually make your spine grow longer, the vertebrae themselves can still lengthen because the plates havenโt fused yet.
But if your growth plates are already closed, HGH wonโt have any physical effect on your spine, because the bones are already fused.
Is it worth it?
There are a lot of risks that come with it and responsibilities you have like bloodwork, and if you want the stack to be even more efficient you need to add the compounds like testosterone which add a lot of risks depending on how you respond.
Even if you are okay with it now there is a high chance youโll regret it later on.
Keep in mind that there are no guarantees for height or bone growth and you wont know how you will respond, and i can confidently say that there is not even one hyper-responder (Someone who responds extremely good) in this whole forum.
As Iโve said earlier you could get all the sides and 0 growth or experience no sides.
I personally believe and itโs probably the truth that you canโt surpass your genetic potential, i just got my HGH today may share my experience on it later on.
Thank you for reading and i hope i couldโve been of some help and clarified some things up for yโall. This shit took like precisely 72 hours

holy fuck mirin thisYou freaked me off, I've read some papers and all of them only talk about 1st generation SERMs, which have direct antiestrogenic effects on growth plates, which cause chondrocyte apoptosis. (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17293177/)
Also, i've found this thesis which explains in detail the hormonal relationships that affect growth plates, and the only one that seems to affect growth plates, and potentially stunt growth is tamoxifen. (https://openarchive.ki.se/articles/...growth_plate_cartilage/26905303?file=48947896)
Enclomiphene is a pretty pure SERM, only thing it does is block the estrogenic feedback loop in the hypothalamus, so it produces more lh/fsh -> more test -> more e2 because it thinks you don't have enough. In all studies done on enclo, it improved the T/E ratio.

(this study was done on clomiphene tho, which is the dirtier version of enclomiphene, contains the estrogenic stereoisomer zuclomiphene, which is the main culprit of most of the nasty side effects.)
Hope you can give me some insight on this!
Mirin the effort btw
. Thanks bhai. So for pct, dont use tamoxifen but enclomiphene if you want yor growth plates.

No he canโt be sure, it all depends on your bone age, if your plates are open, when you began puberty and how youโd respond to it.

Introduction:
Hello bhai, this is my first guide on the forum and i wanted to make it about HGH as so many greys are obsessed with it and ask the same questions on a daily basis.
I will cover every single aspect from sourcing HGH to injecting it, and also i will explain all the pros and cons here with studies backing them up so you understand the risks and what HGH actually does in the body.

HGH Human Growth Hormone:
Exogenous HGH is synthetic human growth hormone, a peptide made up of 191 amino acids, thatโs injected into the body to replicate the natural growth hormone produced by your pituitary gland. It helps boost muscle development, fat burning, recovery, bone growth, and even improves skin health by promoting cell regeneration. Unlike oral supplements, exogenous HGH is directly absorbed into the bloodstream for maximum effectiveness. Itโs commonly used by athletes, bodybuilders, and those seeking anti-aging benefits, but itโs important to use it right and manage the doses to avoid potential side effects.

The Pros and Cons:
Hgh, like anything in life it also has its pros and cons, and how you respond depends a lot on your genetics. Some people see great results with better muscle, fat loss, skin, bone mass and a few inches of height while others might deal with side effects like bloating or joint issues without gaining an inch. Everyoneโs body is different, so how you respond can vary

Pros:
Muscle Growth : HGH boosts IGF-1, which grows muscle cells, speeds up recovery, increases protein synthesis, burns fat, and makes muscles look bigger by pulling more water into them.
Study:Quality of life, body composition and muscle strength in adult growth hormone deficiency: the influence of growth hormone replacement therapy for up to 3 years - PubMed
GH replacement treatment for 6-12 months leads to significant improvements in body composition (DEXA) but longer-term treatment may be needed to increase muscle strength. Self-esteem scores improve and are maintained after 3 years of treatment. Energy levels and emotional reaction improve during...
Fat Loss : HGH helps your body burn fat more efficiently by breaking down fat stores for energy. This means you can lose fat and get leaner, while still keeping your muscle mass.

Recovery : HGH speeds up recovery, which means you heal faster after tough workouts or injuries. This helps you get back to training quicker, without feeling as sore or tired.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19480608/#:~:text=Results: Current evidence suggests,used in critically ill patients
Anti-Aging Effects : HGH can make your skin look younger by improving elasticity and reducing wrinkles. It also helps your body produce collagen, which keeps skin and joints healthy.
Study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10515129/#:~:text=Skin tends to be pale,,LDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B
Stronger Bones : HGH can help make your bones stronger by improving bone density. This is especially helpful as you age, reducing the risk of fractures and keeping your bones healthy and strong.
Study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10515129/#:~:text=Growth hormone ,negatively affects longitudinal bone growth
Bone and Height Growth (For youngcells): If youโre still growing, HGH can help make your bones longer which can increase your height. This is most effective while your growth plates are still open typically in childhood and adolescence. Once your growth plates close (oldcells), HGH can no longer increase height but can still support bone health and density.
Study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9121936/#:~:text=The high,(9.5%) and
Better Sleep : HGH helps improve sleep quality, so you get deeper, more restful sleep. Better sleep means you wake up feeling more refreshed and energized, which supports your overall health and recovery.

Cons:
Acromegaly : If dosed higher than two digits (10+) and used for prolonged periods there is a chance for developing acromegaly-like features, enlarged jaw, prominent brow/forehead, enlarged hands/feet, and coarse facial features
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14974923/
Cardiomegaly : Heart enlargement from HGH happens because HGH and IGF-1 stimulate heart muscle growth (hypertrophy), and over time, excessive growth can make the heart less efficient and strain its function, as the heart is also an muscle.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11932297/
Bloat : Bloat on HGH happens mainly because HGH increases water retention by boosting sodium retention and raising levels of a hormone called aldosterone, leading to fluid buildup in the skin and tissues.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11932310/
Organ Growth : Similar to cardiomegaly HGH boosts IGF-1, which makes organs grow by forcing their cells to multiply and enlarge over time causing HGH gut.
Study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2763332/
Cartilage Growth : This happens because of higher IGF-1 levels and cartilage in for example the nose and the ears are very sensitive to IGF-1 and are the first bones to show noticeable effect this and grow in size due to this.
Drains Thyroid : HGH increases the conversion of T4 to T3, making the thyroid work harder and eventually causing it to slow down if not supported.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34012834/
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome : HGH can cause fluid retention, swelling in the wrists, and pressure on the median nerve, leading to carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms.
Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11128896/
Hypoglycemia : HGH lowers insulin sensitivity, so you need carbs to prevent low blood sugar. 10-15 grams of carbs per IU keeps your blood sugar stable and avoids symptoms like shakiness and dizziness.
What Iโm trying to say here is that only use HGH if you are okay with the risks of these cons and if the pros adjust to your goals.
Prices:
The price of HGH really depends on the quality and where youโre buying it from. Some cheaper options are lower quality but they might not be as pure or maybe even under dosed. The better, higher quality (pharma) HGH costs more because itโs made with higher standards and is usually safer and more effective.

Pharma (Pharmaceutical Grade) HGH
Prices range from $150 - $350+
For 36 iu of Genotropin (HGH Pen)
View attachment 3685336
Generic UGL (Underground Lab) HGH
Prices range from $100 - $200+
For 100 iu (usually with BAC Water)
View attachment 3684651
Generic Chinese HGH
Prices range from $50 - $100+
For 100 iu (without BAC Water)
Lets say you choose to use 6iu ed (everyday) that means that 100iu only gets you 16 days so you need 2 kits which is 200iu that will get you 30+ days and depending on where your buying from it should be $100 - $700 monthly.
So my advice is to have the money ready as you need at least 6-12 month of HGH for any noticeable change on height / bones
Differences:

Insulin Syringes
(29โ31 gauge, 0.5 ml or 1 ml)

Bacteriostatic Water (BAC Water)
Cost: Around $5 - $15 for a 10 ml vial.
Note: You only need a small amount each time you mix HGH, so a single vial can last for a long time.
View attachment 3685327
Thyroid Support (T4)
Cost: Around $10 - $40+
per month, depending on the brand and dosage (e.g., 50 mcg tablets).
Note: Prices can vary significantly based on the brand and whether you get a prescription or use over-the-counter options.

Sharps Container
Cost: Around โฌ5โโฌ10+ for a small sharps container.
Alternative: If you use a thick plastic bottle, you can save money, but make sure itโs durable and can be sealed properly to prevent accidents.
So a total monthly cost ranges from $35 - $75+ for these extra costs.
Source:
โWhere can I buy HGH?โ This is asked by greys all the time. The truth is simple: If you canโt find a source, you shouldnโt be using HGH. Use Google and search โbuy HGH [your country]โkeep it simple. You can also find domestic sources through bodybuilding forums. For Chinese generics, look for threads on bodybuilding forums and choose one thats reputable.
If you insist that you canโt find any bodybuilding forums and sources online Iโll list some here:
BB Forums:
UK-Muscle.co.uk Forum
A forum community dedicated to bodybuilding in the UK. Come join the discussion about personal care, health, lifestyles, spirituality, supplementation, shows, diets, medication, research, training, and more!Underground Body Building Forum
The most comprehensive bodybuilding forum feature news, announcements, promotions and your input on UGbodybuilding herewww.ugbodybuilding.com
Gear Sources:
Community powered steroid source reviews, forums and more.
We're a steroid source review community. Here since 2009 because unbiased and unpaid opinions are hard to come by.
This is so that you educate yourself further and really see what others are experiencing and itโs also easier to find reputable sources here.
Keep in mind that there is a chance of the package getting seized or even worse depending on where you buy the HGH from, always try to buy within the country if you got the funds or at least within the continent you live in, only if you donโt have the funds and are okay with the risks then you can opt for the Chinese sources.
Also always check the laws within your country, for most countries itโs legal for personal use but selling or importing them isnโt legal.
Verifying Compounds:
Most sources have like a way to verify their compounds based on the vials, batch codes or anything similar on their site.
Check their site for verifying or just ask other users on bb forums.
Hiding:
Iโll explain how you can store or hide your HGH. Itโs important to keep them hidden protect them from heat and light and most importantly your parents, make sure theyโre stored in a way that doesnโt draw attention and i will give some examples.
View attachment 3686750
This is the best method to keep them in room temp, away from light and also if your parents find it they could not open it as itโs locked. Hide the box itself nicely in somewhere that wonโt draw attention, and there you go thatโs how you could hide HGH in lyophilised form (powder form before reconstitution)
If your parents find it you can always lie and tell them itโs weed/cigars/vape or anything you can come up with thatโs in there, but depending on your family that can also cause a big problem. So be careful with your words and donโt freak out, stay calm.
Costs around $50~ and choose a big size, lock boxes are usually small so a big size is like 30cmX30cm so big enough for all the vials, needles anything.
Now the real risk is after you reconstitute the HGH and it becomes a liquid form which is then injectable, one vial is usually 10iu which is a high dose and shouldnโt be used in my opinion.
So you need to store it cooled/refrigerated so that it doesnโt degrade and so that you can use the remaining liquid later on. There is a few ways for this one each with its own risks so Iโll explain them here.
View attachment 3686777
If you live together with your family you probably canโt just put a vial of HGH in the family fridge so this may be an option. Tell your family you will buy a mini fridge to store your skincare/sodas in there and store the HGH in there, maybe cut a can of soda in half and put the hgh vial in and put the can back together. Be creative with it.
View attachment 3686775
So this one is riskier but another possible option if you canโt store your HGH in a mini fridge. This one is up to you, choose a product that the rest of your family doesnโt use or something youโve bought for yourself and put the vial in it, of course clean it nicely first.
If someone finds it try to calm them down and tell them that itโs for your skin health or think of some other creative reason.
Injection:
This differs from source to source as if you go with pharma you need to inject with a pen which is really simple thats why i will be explaining how to inject from a vial.
Gather Your Supplies
Insulin Syringes: Choose 29โ31 gauge, 0.5 ml or 1 ml syringes with short 8mm needles.
Alcohol Swabs: For disinfecting the vial tops and your skin.
Bacteriostatic Water (BAC Water): To mix your HGH.
Sharps Container: For safe disposal of used needles.
Prepare for Your Injection
Fill Syringe: Clean the vial top with an alcohol swab, then draw the appropriate dose of HGH.
Dosage & Timing: Typically, 5-6 IU is a good starting point. If needed, you can split the dose into two injections (e.g., 3 IU in the morning, 3 IU in the evening). Some prefer injecting only in the evening. You should fill the syringe up till the 30 mark.
Clean the Injection Site
Choose the Site: The belly area, around 3 fingers away from the navel, is a common spot for subcutaneous injections.
Clean the Skin: Use an alcohol swab to clean the chosen area to prevent infection.
Inject HGH
Pinch the Skin: Gently pinch a small fold of skin at the injection site.
Insert the Needle: Insert the needle at a 45-degree angle into the skin.
Inject Slowly: Gently push the plunger to inject the HGH.
Post-Injection: After the injection, remove the needle and apply light pressure with a cotton swab to the site if needed.
Dispose of the Needle
Dispose Properly: Place the used needle in a sharps container or a thick plastic bottle as fast as possible.
Never Reuse: Never attempt to reuse needles, always dispose of them in a safe manner.

https://looksmax.org/threads/coveri...xperience-results-tips-and-struggles.1172898/
As you can see some experience no growth while others do.
FAQ:
How many inches of height will i gain?
If your growth plates are still open (If you are in your teens, still showing signs of puberty so youngcells), HGH can actually make you 2-6 inches taller over time depending on your genetics, dosing, and how much growth potential you have left.
If your growth plates are closed (oldcells), HGH wonโt make your bones longer. BUT it can help decompress your spine a little bit and will hydrate the discs that will cause improvement in posture so you might gain like half an inch to maybe an inch max depending on your situation.
Will HGH increase my dick size?
If youโre still developing (like during puberty most of the time below 16), then yes, HGH can indirectly boost penis growth because it boosts overall tissue growth through IGF-1.
If youโre already an adult, HGH wonโt suddenly add new inches. So it wonโt work could make it healthier indirectly tho.
Will HGH improve my frame?
Possibly yes, HGH usage over prolonged periods (around 5โ6 IU ED) can thicken bones particularly your clavicles (your shoulders) and ribs. Over some time your whole frame can start looking broader, thicker, and denser. Itโs one of the most important feature for frame.
Will it make my spine grow?
If your growth plates are still open (puberty/pre-puberty or a really late bloomer), HGH can actually make your spine grow longer, the vertebrae themselves can still lengthen because the plates havenโt fused yet.
But if your growth plates are already closed, HGH wonโt have any physical effect on your spine, because the bones are already fused.
Is it worth it?
There are a lot of risks that come with it and responsibilities you have like bloodwork, and if you want the stack to be even more efficient you need to add the compounds like testosterone which add a lot of risks depending on how you respond.
Even if you are okay with it now there is a high chance youโll regret it later on.
Keep in mind that there are no guarantees for height or bone growth and you wont know how you will respond, and i can confidently say that there is not even one hyper-responder (Someone who responds extremely good) in this whole forum.
As Iโve said earlier you could get all the sides and 0 growth or experience no sides.
I personally believe and itโs probably the truth that you canโt surpass your genetic potential, i just got my HGH today may share my experience on it later on.
Thank you for reading and i hope i couldโve been of some help and clarified some things up for yโall. This shit took like precisely 72 hours

I started yesterday and for some reason I think Iโm a hyper responder. I injected the exact thing that is on the first picture genotropin

I mean thats on the lower side, the average your liver can take is around 6iu so that would be the best dose i suppose.
You couldโve just went for generic and used like a higher dose.
