Can I run hgh by itself?

@OldGHGuy I am 49 years old and my IGF-1 level is 217 (Somatomedin). I plan to inject 1.5 IU. 5/2. What do you think, would this dosage help relieve joint problems? I will also take TB-500 + BPC 157.

This might not be enough to go beyond natural for yourself, you’d have to do igf1 tests after 6 weeks on dose to figure that out.

If your primary goal is to relieve joint pain. you may want to consider a GLP. They lower systemic inflammation independently of the weight loss effects.

what do you mean by GLP`?

what do you mean by GLP`?

The new class of incretin hormone weight loss drugs. Semaglutide, Tirzepatide (ie, Wegovy, Zepbound). Even if you don't need to lose weight, there's always a dose that doesn't impact appetite while still reducing inflammation. And it's only once a week.

They reduce systemic inflammation by improving insulin sensitivity, and moderating immune response via the brain.

"GLP-1 medications have been shown to help lower systemic inflammation, which can benefit patients with joint pain by reducing swelling and discomfort in affected areas."

You did not specify what uour "joint problems" are and GH is not necessarily the first line treatment for joint pain only. However, it (along with your peptides) may help. Everyone reacts differently so there is no way I can predict the outcome for you. Good luck!
