HGH and IGF-1 Values

[Triton_]

How much would HGH effect IGF-1 values if taking it ~2-3iu's 5on/2off for the past 2 weeks and stopped taking 2 days ago?

Rephrase your question. Are u asking what should your levels be at taking 2-3 Ius?

sorry, super drowsy... have ran 2-3ius m-f for 2 weeks and then 2 iu sunday, 3 iu monday, 3 iu tuesday, and taking a blood test tomorrow, which found out about today. I don't believe they are checking IGF1, they didn't in the past but this is the same clinic but just in a new location. If they were to see my values would they be extremely out of range?

 

[T_verde77]

I think you'll be fine. I'd say two days and levels should be down. But I have no idea really on that. Just going based on how often hgh has to be injected.

What are u testing for if u don't mind me asking

New pt labs, they called me last minute saying they forgot to schedule me for labs and they had an opening tomorrow; in-lieu of my appt with my new PMC.

Don't believe this is a typical thing they are looking at. It is generally used when checking for growth abnormalities in children, among other things.

IGF screening for those wo "growth issues" is UNHEARD OF, unless a patient ASKS for such testing to be conducted.

Good to know, thanks Dr. Jim
