Pediatric Growth Hormone Deficiency
"Humatrope first started being used in 1987 I have read.  I started taking daily shots in 1988.  At the time I was 14 years old, 5&#039;4&quot;, 170lbs, and had ZERO growth hormone in my body.  As it stood without treatment it appeared that I would never hit puberty.  I began taking daily shots every day for two years.  During that time I only missed two days.  I grew from 5&#039;4&quot; to 6&#039; by 16 years of age and weighed the same weight that I had before I began the shots.  My body developed normally and I noticed no side effects.  Even after I stopped taking the shots I still continued to grow an additional inch.  My farther is 5&#039;10&quot;, my older brother is 5&#039;11&quot; and I am 6&#039;1&quot;.  It worked PERFECTLY for me."
