Will you lose weight fast if you are taking human growth hormone injections and synthroid pills?

Human Growth Hormone (HGH) injections have been shown to help people improve muscle tone and lose a small amount of fat. However, the results are so small that the amount of fat lost is balanced by the amount of muscle gained. In short, you will not lose weight from using HGH. Synthroid pills (synthetic thyroid hormone) has many adverse side effects and is not indicated for weight loss.
