Growth hormones and kids hitting puberty earlier than ever... Any hard facts or conclusive evidence?

Question by The Code Man: Growth hormones and kids hitting puberty earlier than ever... Any hard facts or conclusive evidence?
I've heard growth hormones are fed to livestock, (not all) and in turn can be transfered to eggs or found in the flesh of the animal. What are your opinions on this? Any facts?


Best answer:

Answer by Kate
There was a documented case in south america some years ago where chickens had been fed hormones and the kids who ate it were developing breasts and menstruation as early as 6. One case was about a little boy who developed breasts and female characteristics.

What do you think about HGH being linked to Rick Ankiel???

Question by Cardinals = Greatness: What do you think about HGH being linked to Rick Ankiel???
He ordered a 12-month supply of HGH (Human Growth Hormone) in 2004, one year before MLB banned the substance. Ankiel didn't order anymore of the drug after it was banned. While the drug was not illegal in baseball at the time, I'm still disappointed that Ankiel used it. Although it was legal at the time, do you think he'll get in any kind of trouble?
Here is the link to the story:

Would doctors prescribe human growth hormones to me?

Question by sportsfan: Would doctors prescribe human growth hormones to me?
Im 5"4, 14 years old. both my parents are 5"3. I do not think i have a hormone deficiency.
my projected adult height is between 5"4 and 5"5.


Best answer:

Answer by Reverse Osmosis
Are you a male or a female?

Even if you are a male 5'4 is a short height but its not abnormally short so I don't think you need to take HGH. Besides, you are only 14, you will probably grow a couple more inches in the coming years.

How can you fix a slow growth plate?

Question by : How can you fix a slow growth plate?
I'm 5'6 or 5'7 and my boyfriend is like 5'3. It kinda sucks that he's so short, and I would never break up with him just for that. He went to the doctor and his doctor said that his growth plate has slowed down which is why he's so short for his age. (he's 15). Is there any way to speed his growth up again? Or at least get it back to normal?


Best answer:

Answer by fototag
It might help if he took some Human Growth Hormone but he would most likely need an Endocrinologist to check him out and prescribe it.

How Would One Fake A Positive Pregnancy Test Result?

Question by mayrun04: How Would One Fake A Positive Pregnancy Test Result?
Please help! I was dating this girl about three months ago. I dumped her because she was a complete psycho and liar. Now she's trying to tell me that she is pregnant and that it is mine. I didn't believe her so I made her come to my place and take the test there. It came out positive. Now, I know tests measure the human growth hormone and all, but is there any other kind of chemical that would mimic the effects enough to get a positive result? Maybe something she either brought along and put on there or something? I know it couldn't have been another person's urine because I know pretty much all the same people she knows, and no one else is pregnant. Don't get me wrong, if it is in fact true and it is in fact mine, I will be taking full responsability, but I have not slept with this girl in at least four months and she is not even showing... something is fishy here. I am almost certain she rigged it somehow... please try to help me figure out how.

growth hormones- do they make you taller, but throw your body chemistry off?

Question by HcSasami: growth hormones- do they make you taller, but throw your body chemistry off?
growth hormones, do they make you taller but throw your body chemistry off?
what if you are an 18 year old year girl? do you still have a chance to grow a few inches?


Best answer:

Answer by dezbah1911
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.

Does the Atkins diet affect my development and growth ?

Question by Alex A.: Does the Atkins diet affect my development and growth ?
I am 15 years old following the Atkins diet taking a vitamin and calcium supplement. Eating very little veggies and lots of cheese to get essential vitamins, minerals, and another source of calcium. I was just wondering If the diet might affect my growth and development.

P.S : I am not trying to lose weight, I am trying to maintain my weight plus I love eating lots of meat.
Ive been on the diet for a month now and havent had any problems ever since I started the diet.


Best answer:

Answer by EddySays
There is absolutely no reason to be on the Atkins if you are not trying to lose weight. And most people fail at it anyway. Fad diets don't work.
You are denying yourself lots of essential nutrients and essential energy from complex carbohydrates.
Never look at vitamin supplements as a primary source of a nutrients. Only as "insurance".
