HGH for an 18 year old? Too late?
I'm an 18 year old male, and I'm only 5'1". I was recently doing a bit of research on the human growth hormone, but I'm still confused on some details.
I know there are adults taking the hormone for anti-aging purposes, but it doesn't increase their height. It only increases muscle mass.
Now, I'm still not sure if it's too late for me. I remember going to an endocrinologist when I was younger, but she suggested I did not take the hormone because it was, according to her, carcinogenic. (??? I'm not sure how much truth there is to that...)
Anyway, to sum up my question, will the hormone just not work for me growth wise?

You would need to ask a doctor this question as HGH has to be given by injection to work. If it is given as a pill, it would be broken down in the stomach and digested, before it reaches the blood stream.
