Human growth hormone (HGH), also known as somatotropin, is a peptide hormone that stimulates growth, cell reproduction, and cell regeneration. In New York, the legal status of HGH depends on how it is used:
- For children with growth failure due to inadequate natural growth hormone, HGH injection treatment is legal when prescribed by a doctor. Using HGH this way requires a diagnosis of growth hormone deficiency with confirmation by biochemical tests.
- For healthy adults, obtaining and using HGH injections without a prescription is illegal in New York. Exceptions are made when HGH is used under the care of a licensed physician to treat a medical condition causing growth hormone deficiency, such as pituitary tumors, trauma, or other deficiencies of the pituitary gland.
- Importing, selling, or distributing HGH without a valid prescription is also illegal in NY. Trafficking HGH or similar growth hormones is a federal offense punishable by up to 5 years in prison.
- Purchasing real HGH online without a prescription often results in buying counterfeit or contaminated products from questionable overseas pharmacies. This practice is illegal and poses serious health risks.
The bottom line is that HGH use is tightly regulated in NY. While prescribing HGH injections for medical deficiencies is legal and common, using HGH for anti-aging, bodybuilding, athletic performance enhancement or other cosmetic purposes
requires a diagnosis and prescription - otherwise it is prohibited under both state and federal law.
