Endocrine Disorders Growth Hormone
Your body can still produce growth hormone well into your 80's
It was once thought that as we get older our bodies stop producing chemicals like growth hormone.

Just why we make less growth hormone as we age is unclear but scientists are looking into the benefits and risks of growth hormone in adulthood.
