HGH<IGF

[Redrum42]

I still have a hard time believing all the stuff on pubmed is wrong. It seems to imply hGH itself does next to nothing for muscle unless youre hGH deficient. And mostly just through increasing IGF.

Basically the same as taking those over the counter test boosters vs taking test cypionate injections. Why go the indirect route ?

Almost forgot, if running HGH long term, make sure to supplement with 100mcg of T4 a day (preferably just before bedtime) since the body will greatly reduce its production.

I have read that a couple of times now.
Why?
Where does hgh interfere with Tsh production/conversion?

Interestingly, the hypothalamus isn’t the only place where somatostatin (SS) is contained; the thyroid gland also contains Somatostatin-producing cells. This is of interest to us, because in the case of the thyroid, it’s been noted that certain hormones which were previously thought only to govern GH secretion can also influence thyroid hormone output as well. SS can directly act to inhibit Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) secretion or it may act on the hypothalamus to inhibit TRS secretion. So when you add GH into your body from an outside source, you are triggering the body into releasing SS, because your body no longer needs to produce its own supply of GH…and unfortunately, the release of SS can also inhibit TSH, and therefore limit the amount of T4 your body produces.

Thyroid Hormone + Growth Hormone - If You Aren’t Using T4 with Your GH, You’re Not Doing It Right
