Should I add test to my hgh cycle at 16?

[natqr]

I’m 16.5 (bone age ~16, plates partially open) and currently running a height-focused protocol. My main goal is to push past 6’1” from my current 5’9.5”. I’m already on HGH + armidex and doing everything I can to keep plates open while maximizing IGF-1 and growth. For me, height>everything especially when it comes down to my sport.

my parents are 5'10 and 5'10

Current stack:

• HGH – 6 IU/day split AM + PM
• Arimidex – 0.5 mg every other day (targeting E2 = 15–20 pg/mL)
• Glow stack (GHK-Cu, BPC-157, TB-500) – daily subQ
• Supplements – D3, K2, magnesium, zinc, boron, calcium, etc.
• Mechanical loading (hanging, stretching, sprints, football training)

I've been on this for 5 weeks, and i've seen 1-2cm growth probaly water retention and posture fixes. I'm planning to switching to aromasin and and taking blood in a week to see my e2 and igf1 levels, and also use it as a baseline if i decide to do test.
I know this probally won't be enough for me to reach over 6 foot so this is why im considering adding test. I definitely don't want to run trt for the rest of my life so i'm not sure how long I should run the test long term or short, I've heard adding could give me an extra inch or two on top of hgh and ai which could help me reach 6'1 or 6'2, and of coursre the usual benefits of running test are a huge plus.

What I’m considering:

• Adding Testosterone Enanthate at 125–250 mg/week.(not sure dosage yet)
• Running Aromasin alongside instead of armidex to keep E2 under control.
• Adding HCG to preserve fertility.
• Getting bloodwork (Test, Estradiol, Lipids) baseline + 4 weeks + ongoing every 6–8 weeks.

My concern:

• I’ve read that Test boosts IGF-1 and could synergize with HGH, maybe squeezing out extra height if E2 is perfectly managed.
• But I’m also worried about premature plate closure, aromatization, and the risk of needing TRT for life if I shut down too early, and how long I should run.
• I know Test is mainly for muscle/masculine traits, not height, but my #1 priority is height growth.

Question:
Given my age, open plates, and current stack — do you think adding Testosterone would actually help push me over 6’0”, or is it just unnecessary risk since HGH + AI already covers most of the height potential? and if so could people help me make a cycle?

 

[dnrwarrior11]

ur not gonna get anything more than maybe an eight of an inch from test and u have the risk of just shutting ur shit down and ur hpa axis wont develop fully since ur introducing exogenous hormones early

and u might not even reach 5'11, 6'1-6'2 is very unrealistic

so i should just stick to my hgh cycle?

1. Get baseline bloodwork
2. Like the other commenter said, your HPTA axis has not fully developed. You may have a higher chance of never having getting your natural test levels back. You are already running a lot of stuff so it’s probably not a problem for you to be on try permanently, just understand that it could be a lifelong commitment at your age.
3. Why are you running Arimidex instead of Aromasin? That has a much higher chance of permanently impacting estrogen levels
4. If you aren’t at 10-12% bodyfat, get to it first before hopping on. Then the dose range you mentioned will probably not cause any aromatization especially since ur already on an AI unless you are really unlucky.

1. i already have baseline bloodwork before i started my hgh and ai cycle,
2. Ive looked into it more, my plan is going to run test closer to when my plates close, 6 months from now on hgh when i turn 17 and ill check my plates with xray then
3. ive swaped to aromasin 12.5 eod, im going to get bloods in 2 weeks to get my e2 and just cruise for another 6 motnhs until test
4. im 10.4 percent body fat, i'm trying to increase it as im 71 kg at 5 9, i could have much more muscle mass

let me know how this plan is, and if running test 6 motnhs from now is fine, and how much i can expect to grow

Good. You can run test now too if you aren’t fat and have taken your bloodwork. Idk how much you can grow if you can grow at all, would depend on what the bottleneck is

scared of premature closure, even if I manage e2, u think i would lose a lot of height if i delayed taking test waiting until i hit 3 months on hgh or 6 months of hgh, or is it just fractional

Don’t do test yet bro. Wait until ur growth plates are closed.

You are trying a borderline trt dose
You aren’t fat
You are already using an AI

The chance of aromatization is really really low, you wouldn’t lose any height imo

hop off hgh asap do a lil test n stop for a while

 

[Aryan Incel]

Yes

 

[MindOfBeni]

I am in a similar place as you. If I do test early with an Ai and HCG its most likely not gona do permanent supression cuz at 15-16 there is a high chanche that its development is over so it should be safe ig. I will do it tooo

do not add test, it will just lead to more e2. and usign aromasin would solve that but you need estrogrn for growth spurts so dont bother

 

[natqr]

but if you keep e2 in mid range like 15-20 not too much but not too little while still on test therorically i should be alright?

 

[IrishSlayer1483]

why even bother with test, if you want faster muscle without dealign with all that just use igf1 lr 3

 

[natqr]

why even bother with test, if you want faster muscle without dealign with all that just use igf1 lr 3

because it will increase height velocity no?

 

[IrishSlayer1483]

no it wont only gh and igf1 from gh will

 

[PubertyMaxxer]

Wait until 18 before adding Test. Just use HGH for now to reach genetic height limit, although it probably won't do much. Your Height is fine be glad you don't need LL.

why? ive gained already 2 inches so far from hgh in 6 weeks? For me to even be decent in my position for sports i need to be at least 6'2 preferably 6'3, and the test will be very useful for me athletic wise

Being scared of TRT for life when ur running pussy doses like 125-250mg is comical asf and what's so bad about TRT for life anyways... as long as u can have a kid it's no issue and most people even after blasting and cruising for YEARS have kids no problem. Also 6'1 is very unrealistic for a bone age of 16 that would be a literal miracle

explain? ive gained 2 inches in 5 weeks from 5 8 to 5 10, wasn't even running a high does of hgh and doing any mechical stimulation, and still both parents are taller than me so i don't see why its not possible? bone age is a good indicator but not neccasary = how much growth u have left. You clearly don't understand commiting to Injecting yourself for the rest of ur life is a pretty big decision, and 250mg of test at 16 isnt a "pussy dose" its called not being idiotic

250mg is pussy dose lol nothing idiotic about that... starting younger would probably give u the best chance to recover ur HTPA once ur finished and 2 inches in 5 weeks is almost impossible and definitely some sort of measurement error. Bone age will tell u almost exactly how much growth YOU can get not how much u will get but how much is possible u won't be growing crazy at bone age 16 which is near fusion

dont get me wrong, im aware reaching 187 cm or 6'2 is going to be extremely hard and close to impossible but I might aswell try. Test+hgh+ai+anavarisnt going to do it by itself so thats why im adding abalo and possible other stuff

yeah never said it was bone growth tho? hgh helped water retention in the spine which could give almost a inch, along with me doing posture exerises and msm and drinking water. I probally got 0.5-1 inches of real bone growth, most likely on the lower scale. And because of this my results are plateauing. Hopefully I can continue with 0.5-1cm a month.

and for the proof, I literally can show the edit history, I updated this every other day, and didn't change any numbers, using a stadiometer.

I have a friend whos 15 and ran a similar stack test+var+hgh+ai, and he grew 4 inches in 6 months, but then again he is a year younger than me and some of that was natural growth.

Most people who run a cycle like this with open plates with average genetics will probally get 1-3 inches tho

[theübermenschboy]

ur not gonna get anything more than maybe an eight of an inch from test and u have the risk of just shutting ur shit down and ur hpa axis wont develop fully since ur introducing exogenous hormones early

and u might not even reach 5'11, 6'1-6'2 is very unrealistic
