Dr. David Geffner answered

Specializes in Endocrinology

Don't ask: Unless you are a prepubertal short person or have hypothalamic/pituitary damage. An endocrinologist would want to do dynamic hormone tests to see if you really have a deficiency of hgh. Otherwise he or she should not give it to you.
