Will human growth hormone work for me? hi, i am 19. i am curious if human growth hormone or even a human growth hormone secretagogue could help me gain more height given i am already 19 years of age?

If you have not grown in the past year or so, your bones are not capable of further growth, with or without growth hormone. You doctor can determine for certain with an x-ray of the wrist. Wish you good health!
