Should I wait to start test + HGH if I’m getting MARPE/MSE?

[tsnakee]

I’m 20, male, and I’m a candidate for MARPE/MSE because I have a pretty narrow palate. Planning to get it done at the end of summer.


I was also thinking about starting a beginner cycle around May (test + HGH), but now I’m second guessing it.


From what I’ve seen, the expander works best if your palate isn’t fully fused yet. I’m wondering if starting test before could make that worse since it can affect bone density and maturation.


Would starting a cycle before the expander make it harder for the suture to split or increase the chance it doesn’t work? Or am I overthinking it?


Should I just wait until after I get the expander done?

Blah blah blah yap yap

You should’ve done that 5 years ago

I did some research similar to this a while ago, if i can remember correctly you should hold off on the cycle because if the cycle causes palate/facial growth during the treatment it can mess up the proper expansion program. Granted when i looked into it was for less invasive orthodontics but I think the concept remains relatively the same.
