Has anyone her experience any height growth using growth hormone after their plates were fused?
Even though the general concensus seems to be that you can't get taller, have read online reports from bodybuilders claiming to growth between half and inch and an inch even in their late 20s or early 30s with it.
Derek from more plates more dates covers this:
And he himself claims to have grown half an inch after taking GH (min 9:35)

I am currently undertaking Growth Hormone treatment.
See my thread here: http://www.limblengtheningforum.com/index.php?topic=68875.0
I do not recommend taking HGH after your growth plates closed. While it is theoretically possible with micro-cracks (jumping with plyometrics was recommended by my doctor), it is unlikely to work. Even if it works, you will gain thickness in your fingers and your jaw bones will grow. Eventually, your face becomes deformed (acromegaly). I highly suggest that you do not take HGH after your plates fused. The dangers outweigh any possible benefit.
In theory, you could take HGH while doing LL, but that is another story.
