From what I can find hgh grows cancer, any of you guys check to see if you had cancer before diving right in?

There are studies that say this and studies that say that. In theory, if it can grow tissue then it could possibly grow Cancer. Seems like everything causes Cancer anyway though. Hell, the other day they were saying Splenda in diet drinks caused it. From what I've read over the yrs and I havent read nearly as much on HGH as AAS's it came to ind to me that if at high doses it could grow organs then common sense say that yes there is a possibility.
But........fountain of youth groups all over the world swear by it.

True, but the thought of having a cancer habitat in my body is not ideal, I'm curious of the number of people that take hgh that have taken responsible steps for their health.,
I'm a cancer survivor and I have been hesitant to get into hgh for this reason,
Hard work beats talent if talent does not work hard!

Glad to hear u beat it wallaby,I've had family members touched by cancer and beat it as well.
If you have cancer it could grow it faster, but there's nothing linking it to getting it, your either going to get it or not an if you do hgh could make it worse :/ that being said I'm on 2iu/day just cruising
I wish I could see studies with real examples of people that did develop cancer faster because they were on hgh.
"Epidemiological studies of patients with acromegaly indicate an increased risk of colorectal cancer, although risk of other cancers is unproven, and a long-term follow-up study of children deficient in GH treated with pituitary-derived GH has indicated an increased risk of colorectal cancer. Conversely, extensive studies of the outcome of GH replacement in childhood cancer survivors show no evidence of an excess of de novo cancers, and more recent surveillance of children and adults treated with GH has revealed no increase in observed cancer risk. However, given the experimental evidence that indicates GH/IGF-1 provides an anti-apoptotic environment that may favour survival of genetically damaged cells, longer-term surveillance is necessary; over many years, even a subtle alteration in the environmental milieu in this direction, although not inducing cancer, could result in acceleration of carcinogenesis. Finally, even if GH/IGF-1 therapy does result in a small increase in cancer risk compared to untreated patients with GH deficiency, it is likely that the eventual risk will be the same as the general population. Such a restoration to normality will need to be balanced against the known morbidity of untreated GH deficiency."
Looks like they are still up in the air on this - I could find no data fully supporting the theory that GH will cause malignant cells to grow as fast as healthy cells, but it sounds plausible. The stress diathesis model that the previous member posted about isn't what they are looking at here, but more will GH favor survival of genetically damaged cells and the answer is basically - nobody knows for sure. It's always a good idea to get annual physicals as well as pre and post cycle.
