Question by irishboyo: is it possible for a fully grown person to continue growing with the use of drugs?
The tallest man ever recorded, Robert Wadlow, reached an unprecedented 8 feet 11.09 inches (2.72 m) in height and weighed 440 pounds at his death. His great size and his continued growth in adulthood were due to hypertrophy of his pituitary gland which results in an abnormally high level of human growth hormone. He showed no indication of an end to his growth even at the time of his death. Do you think this could be induced artificially?

Doesn't the term fully grown imply that you cannot grow anymore?
