What Are The Side Effects Of Growth Hormone Medications During Pregnancy?
I am a very healthy 40 year old who is 5 weeks pregnant. I ve been taking HGH for 3 years now and my levels are at the optimal levels of a 25 year old female. I want to know if it is safe to continue taking HGH during my pregnancy. I slowed down on it over the last week because i am not sure if it is safe for the embryo. Please advise.

Hi.
The effects of HGH on humans has not been studied yet similarly with breastfeeding mothers. So I would say that HGH does jot really have any serious side effects, but it would be to either avoid it or take it only under the supervision of your doctor.
Best wishes.
