Hgh blood work

[justaphan]

So I'm going to be starting hgh in a couple days and want to get baseline first. I order igf and hgh correct? Then half hour after a 10 unit pin check igf levels and once I have been on it for several weeks I can check hgh levels again. Am I getting that right?

Prior to you starting your HGH regime an IGF baseline is recommended. HGH blood serum is not necessary.

To get a HGH blood serum done, inject an entire vial and get your blood drawn between 2-3hrs afterwards. I peak around the 2:15hr mark so that is what I usually shoot for.

Their are some studies that show your IGF levels peak as early as 7 days of continuous HGH use, so IMO anything after this is suffice to get your IGF tested.

To test if you GH is good you do the GH serum test. Pin 10IUs and time it to have your blood drawn 3 hours after pin.

Its takes about 4-6 weeks for IGF levels to peak so I like to wait 6 weeks to test IGF. There is no need to pin 10IUs for the IGF test just do your normal pinning.

Could I wait 6 weeks and do a 10 unit pin and test them both at the same time

The point of a HGH serum test is to know whether you actually have HGH in the vial you will be testing. Why would you want to be injecting 6 weeks of an unknown substance or needless to say it contains 0% HGH and you just pinned 6 weeks for the fun of it?

@Gunrunner, I've viewed/read a study that shows that IGF levels peak at 7 days of continuous HGH use. Have you ever checked it before the 6 week mark or is that what you normally target?

You could. As mentioned, during that time you won't know if your GH is legit. You can also get an idea if your gear is good by symptoms of carpel tunnel and initial bloat when you start it. Also it can make you sleepy when you start and help you sleep and weird dreams.

I've had some that tested pretty low. I'm pretty sure it was some GHRH/GHRP. I ended up pinning the gear anyway.

I actually have. I also tested mine before using any GH use (baseline). If I have time I can dig up the actual numbers but the IGF basically was around 130 baseline, around 240 with the 10IU GH serum test and at 6 weeks it was around 350. My GH baseline was <.02 (I think) and with the GH serum test it was in the 40s.

This was the first time I ever tested at the six week mark because I heard S2H on the PED podcast mention that it takes that long to peak. Also, this was the only time I was over 300. I was using Hyges for this test and still use them.

 

[justaphan]

That's a really good point. I didn't even think of that

How many IU's were you on when your IGF results came back at 350? Hyges? I know their is a big fiasco regarding authenticity of them but as long as you receive good HGH from China you are good to go. I as well tested my baseline prior to any HGH use but do not have the results in front of me, if I recall correctly it was in the 11x ng/ml with my serums above 35+.

I was using 4IUs a day everyday of Hygetropin. The bad thing is you never how good the product is from one batch to another and it's expensive to get blood work for every batch.

I looked at my labs this morning and these are the results:
Range: GH 0-10ng/dl; IGF 61-200ng/dl
Baseline: GH <.01ng/dl, IGF 130ng/dl
10IU Test: GH 41ng/dl, IGF 244ng/dl
Six weeks: IGF 311ng/dl

Thanks guys , Gh virgin here so this is great info for my first run soon.

@Gunrunner, is their a specific # you are shooting for regarding your IGF? I will be targeting the upper range as well as with my TRT dose. You are correct regarding the cost of blood work, just for piece of mind I have been doing an HGH blood serum before starting a new kit.

@CdnGuy, when will you be busting your HGH cherry? What dose and length are you considering?

 

[CdnGuy]

Looking to start in May brother. Gonna start out at 2iu's and work my way up,see how I react. Gonna go for atleast 6 months, so might need a hook when I'm in Big D brother haha

No specific range. Just checking to see if GH is legit and how much it improves.

I tried to get GH prescribe from my Endo but he did an IGF test and I was in range so that was the end of that story.

I feel good with my current supplier so I wont get the IGF or GH test again unless I get the Thyroid panel that has the IGF included.

Would dosing 1 time of 10iu cause sever side effects?

Not likely in my experience.

If you can get through some of the banter there is good info on this thread:
MALDI-TOF-MS/HPLC-UV-VIS rHGH results

LOL, not a problem @CdnGuy, just lmk.

Haven't noticed any from multiple HGH serum tests I've done.
