Concerning Human Growth Hormone and Height?

I’m posting this question again, verbatim in the hopes that I get some better answers.





Please try to address my specific questions as opposed to offering other insight.





I am male, if that isn’t already implied.





{I will turn 16 on the 8th of September, 2007


I am 5' 6 tall and weigh about 145 lbs





Height has always been a sensitive issue in my eyes and I can understand its importance because of how it is perceived by society.





Suffice it to say that I don't want to stay 5' 6 for one reason or another.





I have looked into other methods for height increase and found that most, if not all are ineffective, with the exception of the "limb lengthening procedure" and "human growth hormone," respectively.





Just judging from a cursory glance, the first of these two would not be feasible.





That leaves Human Growth Hormone. Human Growth Hormone


is available in oral sprays, pills, and injections.





Essentially, only the injections work.





I have about $10,000 to spare offhand.





I have been reading prudently and found that HGH by injection, the cost that is, ranges from "$10,000 - $18,000





I don't quite understand the discrepancy. Nonetheless, I am willing to bear any discomfort or inconvenience if that is the issue at hand.





It is required that the epiphyseal plates be open for HGH to work properly, in increasing height gains in adolescents





In a nutshell I have three potential problems.





a)Do I have enough money to pay for the treatment ($10,000 no more, no less)?


b)Have my growth plates closed?





c)Supposing that cost and eligibility don’t pose an issue and I reach the treatment stage, about how much could I be expected to grow and what might be my final height?





Thanks for your help, it is greatly appreciated.}

Concerning Human Growth Hormone and Height?
It seems as you have done your homework well. These are all valid concerns and really should be discussed with a qualified physician who can examine you and find out your complete medical history firsthand.


A simple x-ray can tell you if your growth plates have fused. Cost of hGH varies from doctor to doctor and geographical location.


How much you can expect to grow is hard to tell without a complete history and examination.


Good luck. :)
Reply:If you are still within the growing age then perhaps you can add a few inches by eating a balanced diet and leading an active life. A nutritious diet that includes fruits and vegetables, dairy, cereals, meat, and plenty of water will aid the natural process for enhancing height. A good and proper night’s sleep is also essential for the growth process. Taking part in active sports along with some stretching exercises can have a cumulative effect on human growth. There is not much we can do to grow taller after puberty. There are many products in the market today that claim to increase height of adults, but they are all scams without sufficient scientific evidence. Surgical options, though available, are EXTREMELY RISKY and of course expensive. This leaves us with basically two options.





1. Stretching Exercises: - These exercises will help you improve your posture. You’ll be surprised that how much of “Height” is hidden behind your slouched back. You can, at any age, add an inch or two of height by simply improving your posture. Follow the link below for information on specific height enhancing exercises:
