Are you trying to measure yourself for a coffin? At 17 you have the whole world at your feet why would you want to mess that up?
Injecting anything into your body can cause infections that I can't even spell! let alone death, you can get stuff that you would have to live with and at 17 that might be a very long time or a very painfully short time. Please talk to a doctor, they can't say anything to your parents and they can tell you all the information you need to make an informed decision.

Sadly, you won't get any taller, the minimum age for you to take growth hormone is a bone age of 14 (this has nothing to do with your real age but more your bone maturity) at 17, your growth plates have almost fused and growth hormone cannot make you taller. It can only make your hands, feet, jaw and other organs bigger - so you could get a disease called Acromelagy (check spelling and look it up, it aint pretty) at 17, you are past what growth hormone can do for you. And even kids who use it for years and years from a young age because they have a growth hormone defficiency only end up 3 inches taller than they would have anyway. So stay away from it, it causes diseases.

Seems have a big turn in a person's life. The external form of a person is ideal in the eyes of the planet when every feature is assembled in flawlessness or very nearly there. Of all of them, height represents an important role.
Height is not just lots is one of the critical standards in plenty of areas: sports, being a part of the security force, wooing someone, obtaining a work or just bolstering one's assurance therefore, if you want to be slightly taller you just have to use this program https://bitly.im/aL1Uu , grow taller 4 Idiots.
The combination of proteins with growth hormones, could certainly lead to a taller stature and this really is what you would study on this book, how you can set this mixture used because this system really work for nearly all people.

You can't become super tall with it. It just makes you reach your maximum potential. I have a friend who's 12 year old just started taking it about a month ago and grew an inch. She needed all kinds of tests first to see what the problem was. If you are just short due to heredity, it is not advisable. Nobody knows the side effects so be careful. You can still grow on your own. Boys grow til they're 21, and 5'7 is not even short!

No, I've never taken growth hormones but I have seen some results of that. You may very well grow another inch or two but so will your nose and chin and ears. Not a good idea at all. Go with what God gave you kiddo, you'll be much happier.

DO NOT TAKE ANY HORMONE UNLESS YOU ARE UNDER DOCTOR'S SUPERVISION. I'll tell Mom and Dad if i catch you! I saw you asking those questions. You are scaring me. Now go to your doctor and tell him you want to make sure you are taller then 5'7". what is wrong with being 5'7"? I can understand if you were 5'2" and a guy, but you are very close to the average height of most men that is 5'9". Yes, you might make it - give yourself time to finish growing. But please, please, please don't take anything unless a doc gives it to you - it can kill you! Plus there are no guarantees on the stuff.

If you are talking about black market HGH, then who knows? If you're talking about OTC products that claim to have HGH in them, they are too unstable to work.

Either way, consider that you are 17 and still developing naturally. If you decide to take over your body's job of hormone regulation, then don't complain if you have strange diseases later.

Nobody knows what long-term use of HGH does, but read the source below, there are some legitimate suspicions

wow, who's your friend...cuz that stuff costs like $30,000 a year, doesn't it?

given that you're only 17, it's hard to predict how much taller you would get because guys tend to grow until they're 21. usually these hormones are only given to individuals that don't produce enough of it. at 5'7" it doesn't sound like you have a height problem. please research the hormone and talk to a doctor before you do anything.

If you are past puberty, your bones are finished growing and sealed, and adding artificial hormone will only produce negative results for you, not height. Never, Never, Never take drugs that aren't prescribed specifically for you by a licensed physician!
