Interesting. That's considered a short amount of time to raise igf. Usually people will wait about 6 weeks after increasing GH dose to see new igf level. Seems like you are a very good responder!

Only managed yet to check that one after MK-677 a year since natural came to 299
The tests were for other reasons, but I figured I'd throw IGF-1 in there since I had started GH. I was really surprised by the result!

Did you test your natural IGF-1 level?

Wait, did you mean fully natty (no gear at all) or just no hGH? I was reading this whole thread thinking you meant just no hGH. Cuz pretty sure just about anyone here who is getting IGF-1 tested is on some sort of gear (maybe not hGH tho)
Are you seeing big IGF-1 responses to gear?
I did not. I double checked my pre-trt bloodwork just in case I happened to test it, but nope.
I mentioned in my post that my test was before starting gear. Probably some of the numbers here are without HGH but with aas in in place. I've read that testosterone and anabolics in general raise IGF (also eating in surplas does it) but do you have any idea what difference it could make if you're in aas compared to natty? Is it significant or just a few points?

LOL, no way. Nobody tests it fully natty. I was asking him about his natural IGF-1 because he posted his results with 1 iu, then 2, and so on. I did not see a number for his body's natural production of IGF-1 without injecting hgh.

Tf are you talking about then. Most of your posts seem to make no sense,

Well, we all do our best to communicate in written form and hope that out intention is clear.
As for you, though, check out the first post. Most understood it well enough. I was looking for IGF-1 numbers on persons who were not injecting hgh.
Those who also posted numbers after injecting hgh, though, added very useful information for us.
Sorry :Most of [my] posts seem to make no sense," though. I will try to do better when writing.

OK, I can see how my post wasn't very clear
On May 24th, my no HGH IGF-1 level was 178. This blood test was taken at the end of a Test/Primo only blast.
On July 15th I started HGH at 1iu and ran that for 10 days
On July 25th (10 days) I increased to 2iu and stuck to that.
On Aug 21st, my IGF-1 level measured 333

Wow. I wish I had that sort of response or even your original no-hgh number. 333 on 2iu is great!
I was pretty surprised by the response. Maybe the great HGH response makes up for my not so great 4x test response.

100 ng/ml today after almost 7 years on androgens. Z score is minus 0.5.
Pre TRT it was about 200. I am investigating GH as next add on. Would be a big jump as GH ain't winning you any longevity points.

My IGF-1 level came in at 108 ng/ml and I just started taking 2iu's HGH daily titrating slowly up to find a sustainable dosage.
I tested mine id guess u can say full natty… and it was 137… ive only ever been on trt… never cycled… but atopped trt over 10 yrs ago… i got a test shot from my urologist last September… and havent touched test since and my natural test levels after almost a year( 2 months shy of a year) was were at 746…

Damn, threading really closely to the bottom 2.5%. I need to get some validation today somewhere ...
