i heard of growth hormone specialists. they inject growth hormones to make you grow taller?

i don’t know much about it, but i know that there are growth hormone specialists and they can inject growth hormones in you to make you grow. anyone know anything about it?

Growth hormone works if you have a shortage of natural growth hormone in your system. Results vary on how successful it is. A lot depends on how long treatment is give, It is not the specialist that gives the injections but the patient themselves or a parent. It is usually 1 injection per day before bed. Results are by no means instant. The treatment is very expensive. You also need to be monitored regularly make sure there are no side effects

    Growth hormones don’t make you taller than you ever will be, they just make you reach that height faster…
    For example you would give them to a 14 year old that would have stopped growing naturally at 16 say, but it just means they’ll reach their potential in a few months instead of 16.
    I think it’s basically to lessen the difference earlier on. To be honest if you’re genetically going to be short, you’ll always be short… Just make sure you’re reaching your potential by being healthy in general and exercising and if necessary taking growth hormones.

    You would have to be evaluated by an Endocrinologist to see if you were a candidate to receive growth hormones. This type of specialist would need to test your pituitary gland and other glands to see if there exists any deficiencies, if there are any glandular tumors, etc.
