I’m about to be 17 and I was wondering if igf1-lr3 is worth it for bones my height plates are closed but I wanna ascend my face and my structure if I can’t grow any taller. Are there any like risk of acromegaly or other major side effects of igf1 lr3 or like hgh?

igf-1 isnt gonna make a difference in anyone developmentally-wise that they wouldn't have already gotten w/o it because growth rate is dependent moreso on igf-1 and igf-2 receptor sensitivity/density than serum hgh/igf-1 levels.

ie. im 6'3 with a massive frame 20" biacromial (pure clavicle bone breadth) and 26" bideltoid and my serum igf-1 levels are genetically low. i just have very good genetics for igf-1 and igf-2 receptor sensitivity.

That’s why tren is good in a cycle,but IGF-2 barely has a factor after fetal development lol.
