If the growth: plate is open yes you can . Supplemental hgh can let you increase the speed of getting there, but not the final height. The final height is predetermined by your genes.

A 16-year-old male asked:
If I get enough sleep every day (~10hours) will that produce enough HGH where exercising won't really benefit me anymore in terms of maximizing growth? Should I still exercise if I want to maximize my growth potential if I get enough sleep already?
