I've been reading up off and on about HGH & considering it in the next yr

so now I have to ask how many iu's a day /& a week are you guys using and how much are you spending a month for it?

How long have you been using it since you went on?

its a serious decision no doubt for those that chose to use it & I hear alot of good things about it.

also how many mgs a week of test & other gear are you using along with it? IGF? etc?

and - tell me what you saw in recovery and strength gains from it once on for a while....

if all this has been already answered in this forum than I apologize in advance for not reading deeper.

last time i used was for two different bb shows----16 weeks 1200mg week test 600mg week eq 40 mg day winst along with nolv t3 and clen-- 2iu in morn and 2 iu in afternoon...4iu a day was very uncomfortable for me....joints hurt and hands and feet swelled really bad.i didnt really see any noticable fat loss or strenght gains compared to when i didnt use it. i would consider myself an intermediate aas user and imo gh is not worth it...i know some people swear by it--but for the money and the sides i just didnt think it was worth it for me.....100 iu kits go any where from about 3oo all the way up to 1000$--good luck finding them. take into account all the responses you get here and make your decision then bigj9

Well I haven't been on for a year or so due to bein a broke ass but I should be starting back up in a few. However, smile.gif, I don't come off test so I bump and cruz throughout the year so I had a variety of environments while running gh.

My last run was for 17 months, 8iu's 5on 2/off, I did bump to 10iu's for a little while but I really don't feel I was at that dosage long enough to comment though I definitely felt a difference and really liked it! biggrin.gif

I ran 1200mgs test e, deca 800mgs and dbol then dropped to 350mgs test for about 3 months then back up to 1200mgs and 750mgs tren e and I think an oral (drol, dbol, m1t) but cant remember. My dosages are escaping me a bit too so I kinda guessed but I think that's what they were, definitely no higher though.

I also run slin for 4 weeks every other 4 weeks, opposite lr3 while on gh or not.

I am a firm believer in gh and love the feeling of wellbeing I get from it. I also can't attribute one great thing to it but moreso a complete body recomp that changes my physique slowly but dramatically. It is definitely nothing that happens overnight and everything I claim happened over the entire run but did become more pronounced when I reached 6iu's then finally reached my target of 8iu's. I took a few months to push up to my target dose but fortunately the sides didn't bother me too bad so I could progress fairly quickly. The wrist pain was well...a pain but not a great big deal and I didn't nor do I ever hold much water so that wasn't an issue at any dosage. My arms fell asleep a good bit, especially at night but I have that problem all the time anyway so I'm fairly used to it. The bigger my arms get the worse it gets...

I did, however, have great skin, feeling of wellbeing, more energy in the gym and everywhere else and wonderful sleep. I also really felt that I had more power in the gym. Nothing like tren but with a second or two rest after being completely exhausted on a heavy set I could bang out another rep or two which I can only attribute to the gh. Normally when I am spent from a heavy set...thats that and no more!

The adjustment period as I have chosen to call it, the first few months of adapting to the exogenous gh is a bit taxing. I was very lethargic for a large portion of the day, wanted to sleep a lot more and had some achey joints...especially my wrists. I probably made it a little harder on myself than necessary just so I could get to my target faster. As soon as the sides subsided I pushed up 2iu's, rinse...repeat till 8iu's! biggrin.gif

I spent then about the same as I will spend for this upcoming run. It works out to be under $300 a month to run 8iu's 5on/2off. Obviously I don't run US pharm grade but I can tell you I have run several gh brands, including a pharm brand and truthfully I liked the brown tops best (hygetropin). I am getting ready to run the red tops (thanktropin) supposedly better than the browns...we shall see though.

Hope I gave you what you were looking for there man....like I said...I love the stuff. Its pricey but if your dedicated and love this lifestyle then I say go for it and I would bet you will like it as well.

Good luck...

yes truely a great post..
8-10 ius a day is nuts.. smile.gif

personally have been taking it 2 years on and off tried about 5 different brands. fintropin was the worst out of them all. yellow tops and ip blues tops were OK. i liked jintropin, hygetropin, getropins were great, and blue tops are great.
i dont use it to get huge and change my body to much, so i dont come close to 8 ius, i stay around 2.5-3.5 and have excellent results. the feeling of wellbeing is amazing. can totally feel a difference when on a break.

now here is the key, dont expect much of anything for a while. meaning 3, 4 months down the line.. everyone expects it to be a few weeks to a month.. not going to happen. hgh = long term

overall results not crazy gains at all. however it does make you get over your peak when and if you reach it.

Yes, tiz a bit nuts but what the hell right!? I had plenty and really never had any intention of just running a replacement dose. I wanted to see the true potential I suppose. biggrin.gif

However you choose to dose you will still see the benefits. My belief is that your gains or noticeable affects will be increased and potentially sped up as well at the higher doses. Even at 10iu's I didn't run into any ill effects that scared me off the higher doses.

I'll second genu though, don't expect a flood! Slow and steady and feeling good all the way! smile.gif

defintaly the dose will determine what your ultimate goals are.. pumping a lot in you should and will speed things up more and have an bigger effect.. i feel you on that.. i am actually thinking this winter going a little nuts and going high doses for about 4 months..


i will give you an example. my buddy who is competing, never took gh.. just started taking it back in feb.. was only doing about 2-3 ius, over the last 4 months went up to 6-8, and now he looks like someone carved him out of clay. ridiculous how the doses will change your look.

Hell yeah, I can attest to that. Push up fairly high (6 - 8 maybe 10) give it 6 months or so and watch what happens.

I'm tellin ya...I love the shit! lol

I am a bit different I guess! I have been taking GH for about 6 years on and off. My biggest run was just shy of 2 years straight at 6 2/3 ius every day. I can tell you there is not a big differenc for me in 6 ius and 2 ius.
I only notice it starts to work faster when on higher dose.
For me 6 2/3ius I gained about 5lbs (water weight I guess) but yet tightened up in the first 5-6 weeks then at around the 3rd month the fat started to melt off. After 6 months or so my body changed shape for the better. about a year and a half in it felt like it was doing nutting anymore so I took a break.

2 ius a day for me is almost as good as the 6 2/3s. It did take longer to notice but it is working just as good

Over the 6 years of GH mostly at 4 ius a day 2 am 2 pm everyday. I can say that 2ius For me works just as good.

Thanks alot guys!

Tell me what you saw in side effects when you initially started using GH?

I've read being more tired at first til adjusted? numbness in hands? what else? how long?

my thought was to try 2ius 5/7 days for 3-6 mos then see from there. it will be a while til I can even get to that point next yr. so for now I am asking questions and reading up. I spent a good yr reading up on AAS prior to starting a cycle.

I know a few guys in my gym that are clearly using GH and I see the gains they are making along with what appears to be a quicker recovery overall. but just my opinion only

Most everone I know gets tired at first, only lasting 3-4 weeks some it went away faster!
Numbness is a side of taking to much. Some have other joint pains, knees, hips, and forearms are most common. I get it in my knees.
I think you will be happy with results at 2ius a day if you take it ED. just remember to give it time to work.

............................thanks for the info. is the joint pain transitional or while you are using GH the entire time? I ask since I am already 45 and have my share of joint pain from beating my body up with heavy lifting for alot of yrs. I would hope for the GH to ultimately help heal some of the chronic things like tendons and shoulder strains but i dont fully understand it enough yet to know what to expect.

The joint pain is just a side of to much GH. At 2ius I feel fine even at 4ius I am good It was only when I go into the 6ius a day is when I got knee pains. Keep your dosage low at you will have no problems. It will help heal your tendons but long term is the only way.

don't forget about diminishing T3 and insulin resistance in about 2 months!

Yes this is a true fact although I never noticed any difference when running T-3 or not.
I never have used Slin and never will so I cant say anything about that.
I usally run the T-3 at 25-50mcgs. 25mcgs if pharma stuff and 50mcgs if research stuff, for no other reason than I am a weirdo
