Is taking human growth hormone while growing up cheating if u box now?

[SirPimpGmoneh]

Okay so i was giving human growth hormone by my doctors from about 5th to 10th grade, and im boxing now, im a freshman in college. They said my projected height without it would be around 5 foot 4 i instead grew to 5 foot 9 and a quarter and think i probably wouldnt be able to box had i not takin it. So gentlemen, unfair advantage and i shudnt be able to box or no doesnt matter?

Your a cheater.

It's a debate I was thinking about when hearing Lionel Messi was put on HGH growing up. Without it, would he have made it to Pro Soccer?

And who knows how many people could be using it right now, even as adults.


But to your point: It is deemed Medical treatment. Wonder if those that need Testosterone shots as well are able to compete...not sure. Maybe if it is in what is noted within "legal/normal" limits.

No. There is no medical test in sports to know that u took HGH. the only way they can do that if they take a sample of your bone marrow.
maybe they will come up with a test in a few years
