don't ever, ever, ever take growth hormone if you have not yet been to an endocrinologist ( a doctor who specializes in glands and the hormones that are produced). GH will not make you taller. whomever tells you that is trying to sell something to you that simply won't work, and may not even be GH.
If you take GH without an endocrinologist's prescription, you can definitely throw all of your body chemistry off, including shutting your thyroid gland down. Once this happens, you won't even be able to lose weight, grow hair, feel rested, have a normal menstrual cycle, and you will probably die faster. Then your height won't be an issue any more. I know we women often want to look different than what we are meant to look like. Just know that you still can grow a few inches without taking that junk, and you are worth every bit as much as someone who may be a bit taller.
