HGH Sides/Titration

[hungryalways]

I currently received the 150IU kits from QSC and I'm having an issue with side effects. Namely awful sleep quality and numb hands.

I guess I will need to start low and titrate up. Does anyone have experience with this? Ideally, I want to get to 3 IU/day as I need to improve my bone density.

My sleep is absolutely wrecked after a 2 or 3IU dosage of QSC, even if I dose around 9 a.m. and sleep at midnight. The same thing happened before when I was using Optitropin in the evening. However, moving to a morning dose mostly fixed the sides. Plus, I was doing 4IU every two days.

Any tried and tested ways to mitigate sides? I find it harder to fall asleep and I'm waking up non-stop during the night. It's not sustainable, but I'm wondering if I my body will "get used to it" or if titrating up will allow it some time to adjust?

Start at a lower dose. 1ui, run for 10 days then move up, 1.5 or 2ui for 10 days. Rinse and repeat. The sides are easier to deal with this way.

So I had the same problem. I am taking 2ius twice a day. I used carpal tunnel hand braces at night to sleep. These helped tremendously. After about two months it went away. Now I just have some tightness in my forearm.

Good to know it eventually subsided. Will get hold of some braces. Did you find sleep quality suffered irrespective of the carpal tunnel? I seem to be constantly waking up and feel drained in the morning.

Mine was more because I couldn’t stay asleep due to my hands
