Ive heard about using hgh for performance enhancement? is it safe? is this a good idea?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Human Growth Hormone: No. It is not safe to just use this product without a doctor's supervision. It messes with all of your hormone levels, it can cause a diminishment of your own testosterone production, cause testicular shrinkage, penile shrinkage. It can lead to bone loss and joint disease and it often causes diabetes in humans who do not need this. Please do not use hgh.
