Trying to keep my growth plates open longer

[michadmro]

For context, I just turned 17 and I’ve been on hgh for 5~ months, in my first 4 months I grew a full inch (5’6 to 5’7) according to my doctor was very unlikely by my age, I’ve been on anastrozole 1mg per day for a bit longer than the hgh and 9IU hgh per day.

my plates are clearly still open since I’ve been growing, but does anyone have experience with just buying more estrogen inhibitors? Or any other drugs to stop my plates from closing, I asked my doctor about raising my dose and he just said they can’t, I know to much estrogen blocking will stunt your brain or whatever, but I don’t really care that can develop later, my goal is to have 2 more cycles of the same rate so that I get to 5’9.

also as a side note is mega dosing melatonin safe? I’m figuring it will let me sleep a lot longer but idk the effects I’ll probably just ask my doctor about that if no one knows

So yea if any of you guys know or have experience with this I’d really appreciate it

You shouldn't need to supplement melatonin, just take magnesium or smth instead
Getting ur estrogen too low is fatal so idk dont be stupid

Stick to what your damn doctor prescribed you. Oestrogen shouldn’t be nuked ever. Limiting it is good, however.

Spend a lot of money, take 10 iu fucking shots every day and grow to 5“7.5-5”8. Brutal.

Brain development isn’t less important than height bro, Ik you only think about height rn but its NOT worth risking your IQ for potential, tiny extra height gains from higher AI dosage.

Also did your doctor fr tell you to do 9iu hgh? I thought the point of diminishing returns would be lower than this but I haven’t looked into this at all

my iq was tested 136 so its fine an extra inch of height would probably have net positive effects on my quality of life than if i lost 10iq for it, my doctor actually just cleared me for 10iu, thats the max doctors can even give you apparently, he says i can keep taking it as long as i get at least 33% of an inch every 4 months but of course after that i have to stop because it will just deform me at that dose, but since im doing very well in the blood tests (ive had 3 blood tests so far while on it) and having no side effects 9-10iu is completely fine if expsensive, the returns prob do diminish but as long as the blood work is clear im fine with that

my parents are 5'2 and 5'5 so its a pretty impossible battle but i will fight my genetics anyway

I see so essentially its actually not that
likely that 9iu is more effective than say 4.5-6iu but you just wanted to be on the “safer” side in terms of not missing out on any gains and your doctor simply allowed it right correct me if Im wrong

Yea pretty much I have probably till I’m 18 max before my plates close or any day untill then so even if I was taking a potentially dangerous dose it won’t be for a very long time + I’m reacting extremely well that’s why I’m here looking for peoples experience with more heavily dampening estrogen with the idea of keeping them open longer and milking the higher than average reaction and lack of side effects

Thanks Im still trying to figure out the optimal dosage to not miss out on gains but also to be very careful not to go past the point of diminishing returns.

Did you see ANY changes in your nose so far ?

No but I probably will if I’m on it till I’m 18 but I have a small nose anyway so growth will be a bit harder to notice, I’m pretty sure you can completely avoid it by taking a dose that keeps your igf-1 levels at any time under a certain level like you said that other lower dose, either way I can just get a rhinoplasty (or whatever it is that fixes your nose idk) if I experience unwanted growth

not fatal

 

[valkcy]

not fatal

If you drop it close to 0 it’s fatal afaik and plus when its too low it has negative effect on bone

 

[Dave1]

at close to 0 itll fuck u up bad yes but even AT 0 no one knows how fast itll kill you. but yes low e2 does have bad effects on bone and brain
