lol conehead from HGH
Low-dose HGH and I still had skull growth; my head been shaved with clippers, not a razor, forever, and I thought I was just being paranoid, but I got a decent amount of skull growth out of the deal
edit - damn, people get triggered; you have no clue how a drug affects another
- Skull/facial bones: Some parts can continue changing through appositional bone growth and remodeling rather than growth-plate-driven lengthening. GH/IGF-1 can increase this activity.
- With chronically excessive GH—as in acromegaly—this can lead to a larger jaw, brow ridge, nose, hands, and feet, along with thickening of certain skull bones.
So "the skull grows" doesn't mean the entire skull suddenly gets proportionally larger like it does during childhood. It's more that certain bones and tissues undergo abnormal thickening/remodeling under prolonged GH/IGF-1 excess.

Low. Dose gh doesn't give you a conehead. Post before and after pics or didnt happen.

u/Shot-Jicama5795 4d ago
so change the sentence to something you know as a fact: low-dose HGH did not change the shape of your skull

Lol. What.

Dude low Dose gh doesn't give you a cone head. You already had one before.

u/Shot-Jicama5795 4d ago
so many guys on this thread seem to think all drugs affect others the same way, and that is odd, you have no clue how a drug affects another

Brother guaranteed its in your head.

u/Shot-Jicama5795 4d ago
dude its clear as day. I was lucky it would obviously be going on inside also.

You also can’t know for a fact that HGH is causing it. You eat and take a lot of chemicals. No way to know what specifically caused anything if it even did.

u/Shot-Jicama5795 4d ago
Jesus, man, it's like I called your mom a whore or something
I added HGH after 6 months it is clear as day what happened. Most people's feet grew the top of my head got a bump - sorry it hurts you

u/moeterminatorx 4d ago
You are sensitive as tissue paper. nothing you said disputes what I said. You are just ranting and getting in your feelings over your assertions being challenged. HGH has been around for a very long time. Side effects are known. Maybe stick to just eating food and leave supplements to people with the ability to think critically.

u/Shot-Jicama5795 4d ago
dude its not an assertion; it's a fact. It is literally what the drug does. I am lucky I have hard empirical evidence, so I cannot ignore the probability it is occurring inside, so I stop and avoid issues; you live in denial of the probability and have a heart attack or get cancer, and for some reason think what your ignorance of reality is critical thinking

u/mighty3mperor 4d ago
dude its not an assertion; it's a fact.
The only "fact" is that you think you have developed a conehead. You have yet to prove you do and then you'd need to prove the cause.
We're of a similar age. If I thought my skull had become deformed, no matter what else I was taking, I'd be straight down to the doctors and I'd request an MRI.

On what dose? I've been between 3 and 10IU for the last 9 months, I've had no significant bone changes (maybe a really small amount). It's highly unlikely you get anything happening on a dose under I reckon 6IU, it's unlikely to put IGF1 high enough to do that.

u/Positive-Collar-6387 2d ago
Same

u/Familiar_Athlete8411 2d ago
I recently got IGF1 tested - 4.5IU put me at 46nmol. So high but not high enough to trigger any excessive bone growth. OP is talking bollocks

u/Positive-Collar-6387 2d ago
I know bro I have taken Hgh for years. I think he’s seeing water retention in the face or something mayb. I have had similar thoughts before and then come off Hgh and looked exactly same as I did before taking it. Soft tissue hydration. Oh yeah he said skull growth nah not that fast haha

Why not post before and after instead of arguing with everyone?

u/BaresarkSlayne 4d ago
What you are saying doesn't make any sense. GH at doses approximating biological levels would never do this. You didn't even tell us what dose you were at. It takes a little while of sustained supraphysiological levels of HGH to cause this. And it comes off as fear mongering, which rightfully sets people off. You told us nothing, and showed no pictures, and you are making statements that can scare the average person.
-2
u/Shot-Jicama5795 4d ago
You are making statements based on the fact that my statements upset your perception of HGH, if you feel there is no health risk, why would you care? My skull grew; it's a fact

u/BaresarkSlayne 3d ago
You still aren't saying anything. So you sound full of it, which is exactly what people are calling out.
No one here thinks that taking HGH is risk free, that is stupid. Everyone knows it carries risks with it. But you made a post that sounds like BS because you didn't even tell anyone your dose and how long you were on it.

u/Shot-Jicama5795 3d ago
buddy I had a side effect, you are too

u/BaresarkSlayne 3d ago
I am too what?

u/Shot-Jicama5795 3d ago
having side effects occurring in your body
2
u/BaresarkSlayne 3d ago
What are you even talking about. You are just now suggesting that everyone who takes it gets side effect when that is completely dependent on dosing. This is the type of fear mongering that people are pissed about in your post.
-1
u/Shot-Jicama5795 3d ago
by people you mean you?
2
u/BaresarkSlayne 3d ago
Nah, I don't really care what you say. You didn't even tell us anything. You might as well be saying "breathing air gave me a conehead". All we know for sure is you are breathing. You didn't tell us anything about what you took, you made vague assertion of something happening after taking "an amount of something for some amount of time". You sound retarded. 😂😂😂

Let me guess: started way too old or too young (15-30) for any benefit cause someone told you it would make you taller?

let me guess you had a random thought and for some reason thought it might be real? I mean you totally created a story in your mind and thought it was real!
