What amount of height can be added with the use of HGH and how long would an individual need to be on it?

Please don't respond by saying only if it is prescribed by a doctor. I am 20 years old, weigh 140 pounds, and am 5'4''. I understand the risks of the substance and am just wondering the height effects of HGH.
i'd like to add my growth plates have not closed yet

if i want to get HGH injections….?

I am 17 years old guy
and I am Short

and i really feel like getting HGH injections, so I'm going to ask my doctor & mom about it =/

Question:

If my growth plates have locked, would HGH injections do any good then???
If not, are there any ways to get around this?

Will HGH make a not deficient person grow taller if their plates are open?

If professionally administered Human Growth Hormone, would a young adult (who is not deficient in HGH, but has not reached max potential height and whose growth plates are completely open) grow taller? Please explain either way in a scientific sense.

Thank you

Is human height unpredictable?

I hope so b/c Iam 5.9 and would like to be taller. Im not obssesed but it would be nice. My friend was really short, shorter than me and the next school year he comes back taller than me. Is it cause he took injections or his growth spurt perhaps? By the way he played football that summer and I heard excercicing and diet increase growth hormone. I think I screwed up with my daily routines and now Im behind and close to ending puberty.(problem is growth plates closing)

I'm 15 and I've just started to lift some weights but I've heard it stunt your growth, do they?

I have had mixed opinions about weights stunting your growth. Some say that it actually stimulates your growth because it helps stimulate turn your protein into Human Growth Hormone. Others say it causes too much tension in your bones and causes damage to your growth plates. I am really confused. I have been bench pressing and doing machine weights such as legg press and ones that help shoulder and pecs etc. Do weights actually stunt your growth? if they do, why? and does proper technique prevent stunting of the growth? thanks in advance x

I’m not quite sure how to convince her…?

I think I may have Human Growth Hormone Disorder...you can see the details of my problem here : http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AuwlM7eTSPiWcPhsiahZ3oXsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20081030120647AA1yBdm .

I had bloodwork done by my family doctor, but he can't do a test for hghd. My mom doesn't want me obsessing over this and tries to assure me all is well. But I want to make sure before my growth plates close, if they havent already. How can I convince her to let me see a endocrinologist?

NEED ADvice about my health?

Will a endocrinologist prescribe me human growth hormone?
I am 18 year and 5 month old male weigh 171lbs and am 5 feet 6 inches tall.

HERES MY STORY
I was extremely obese at 265lbs and my current height, started my diet on march 3rd when I was barely 16, 1 month before my 17th birthday. I was extremely belumic and annorexic dropping weight really fast. I stopped around christmas time at 142 lbs, extremely bony. I think I lost all muscle NO FAT. I looked like an old man, I never told the doctor about this. DO you think this stunt my growth. Will the doctor prescribe it for me so I can grow taller and to overall get a physical, to see if I am healthy. By the way my growth plates are still open. My real question is If I lose weight 1 pound of fat per week, will it affect the rest of the years of me growing. Please help me :)

THANK YOU:)

The reason is I want to grow, but get a six pack by losing the rest of the fat I have.
