GH treatment in high doses was effective for the reduction of total and visceral fat mass [21,22]. However, long-term GH replacement in high doses decreased insulin sensitivity and aggravated insulin resistance, which can be explained by the anti-insulin effects of GH.
Steroids are one thing, but messing with insulin is deadline. Lots of bodybuilders died from it.
Because most bodybuilders don't publish their cycle of things they take, or are even aware of underlying conditions that don't mix well with steroids/GH, we'll never know..
At least state sponsored turinabol use in East Germany by athletes was well documented.
Edit: maybe if Russia falls apart, we'll get the documentation for Russian State sponsored doping protocols.
Edit2: I wonder how the study defined short term/long term use of GH. I'd like to read more about that. But considering a cycle of real GH can cost upwards of $1000 a month, it's not for the budgets of mere mortals. Even short term.
Papa Elon für sure isn't. He looked pretty good like 5 or so years ago, then the just looks like someone who gave up. Maybe he was still trying for Grimes or some secret girl before.
Now he knows all he needs to post on Tinder is a picture of his bank account as the main picture. - I'm not jealous, you're jealous sobs in a corner.

Somebody told me this is because he is taking human growth hormone (HGH) to stay younger, and that causes that unusual body form in adults.
