AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on a 17-year-old seeking ways to stimulate the pituitary gland to maximize height during puberty. Participants emphasize that height is primarily determined by genetics and that any attempts to manipulate the endocrine system can be dangerous. They advise against trying to stimulate the pituitary gland without medical intervention, as ethical medical professionals would not engage in such practices without valid medical reasons. The conversation highlights the importance of seeking professional medical advice if there are concerns about growth or potential medical conditions affecting height. Overall, the consensus is that there are no safe or effective foods or chemicals to stimulate the pituitary gland for height increase.

Hey I am still only 17 years and thus still in puberty so I would like to maximize the height that I can get.

How do I stimulate the pituitary gland in every way possible?

I would like to grow as tall as I can, thanks!

Are there any foods or chemicals that stimulate the pituitary gland?

I don't care about personal morals, all I want is the facts. Does it work? Is it dangerous?

Let me know, thanks!

You can't without medical intervention, and ethical doctors would never do such a thing without cause.

Your height is set by your genetics. If you think you have a medical condition that impairs growth, please seek medical help. We can't help you here.

Your endocrine (hormone) system is not something you want to mess with.

I don't care about personal morals...

We do. Please review the rules before posting again:
