Does hgh slow cell death?

Does hgh slow, or accelerate the rate of cell death?

I have a few friends who argue with each other on the subject. I have heard it can accelerate cell death and regrowth (which is why cancer can be accelerated while on hgh).

I have also heard it slows cell death (which is why it's good for anti aging). Only bro science I've heard is from a buddy who argues the latter. He says any time he's using hgh and has an acne outbreak it takes much longer to resolve itself.

Weirdly, I'm also experiencing the latter. I'm almost completely covered in tattoos (been working on body suit for the last 4.5 years, Only have one leg left). I'm very familiar with my rate of healing for getting ink.

Been on 3ius daily of hgh for 7 months now and just had my first tattoo session since being on. It took almost 3 times longer for it to heal.

Could it be other factors? Absolutely. This wasn't an attempt at an experiment in any way. Just found it interesting and though I would share.

Hope everyone had a great weekend.

Kind of a complicated issue to me. So a cell is created and a cell dies. In between this time a cell will regenerate many times. I would think that GH would speed up the healing process and not slow it down. But overall I just think a cell will renew or multiply a certain amount of times before it totally dies off. Some say GH speeds up that process, while renewing at same time and others say it slows the renewal process. No true answer.

My guess is same as yours, I would think it speeds the healing process. I'm sure my situation was a coincidence. Thanks for the response tho, good stuff

Well, they don't call HGH the fountain of youth for no reason.

So many factors play a role when it comes to wound healing it's hard to say if its the HGH that makes the wound healing take longer. Also HGH is not primarily used for wound healing so thats a another thing to keep in mind.

Ya, probably made no difference at all lol, I'm sure it was coincidence.
