Cancer may be developed because of HGH

Human Growth Hormone (HGH) has been originally introduced for medical purposes. This medication is prescribed to treat children with growth disorders and adults that experience deficiency of growth hormone and associated health problems. But this drug is often abused. Many weightlifters and other athletes apply this preparation for athletic needs. Under laws of certain countries, including the USA, purchase and usage of this medicine for non-medical needs are considered to be illicit.
Although this drug is illicit without any prescription, it is not difficult to obtain it. This drug is widely available at online pharmacies. Furthermore, street dealers sell this medicine. Since it doesn’t cost much, numerous individuals have possibility to obtain it.
Those who administer HGH illegally abuse also other medications. They are not limited only by illegal administration of this product. Which products are also used by consumers of HGH?
Some specialists decided to conduct a research related to illegal intake of HGH. They enrolled 230 weightlifters aged 18-40 into the study. The experts could learn that the most of these weightlifters applied not only HGH but also anabolic-androgenic steroids and insulin-like growth factor-1. Furthermore, many of them applied recreational drugs, such as cocaine, ecstasy, etc.
Which dangers are faced by those who apply increased doses of HGH prolonged period of time? Unluckily, unwanted consequences caused by high dosages of this preparation are not studied sufficiently because health care providers usually don’t recommend increased measures.  Increased doses are commonly taken by those that apply this medicine for performance-enhancing effects. But it is known that administration of high dosages during prolonged period of time may result in grave side effects. This product may affect different systems, including endocrine, respiratory, cardiovascular, etc. It is important to be very careful because high dosages of this drug are associated even with cancer.
