Can HGH injections make you grow taller if your leg bones have fused?
August 30th, 2010
I heard a study that said HGH could still make you gain some height at any age somewhat because even if your leg bones have fused HGH would still stimulate the spinal cord bones to grow longer could be up to 2 inches of added height since they never fuse. Is there any truth to this? Thanks
NO.
Once the epiphesil plates have fused thats your lot.
The only way to become taller is with Orthopaedic intervention which involvess breaking your bones and wiring you to a device which you twist every day to make the gap bigger. Bone fills in the gap.
A veruy painful, time consuming and expensive procedure.
