HGH sleep issues

About a month in on ugl GH, 4iu every night before bed, 2hrs after dinner. First couple weeks it knocked me out all night. Past couple weeks I've been wide awake at 3am every night. Almost feels like a cortisol spike. Wondering if I should ride it out, switch to am, or if anyone has had the same experience or knows the possible science behind this regarding the gh interactions with prolactin, progesterone or adrenals.
 
I don't think this happens, or at least without seeing hGH levels after a week off. Which I doubt long-term hGH users would have any interest in doing. Plus age and other factors, relative to baseline levels.

You're shutdown while on it no? IGF 1 negative feedback loop.

I understand you bounce back once you come off, but I have no intentions of doing that. Will most likely be on for life, followed by TRT at some point.
 
Dosing should be split as you naturally produce 3+ pulses per day. 50-70% during sleep and the rest is distributed during the day. Ideally, 2 doses split 12 hours apart ie 11pm and 11am. So, if taking 4ius take 2.5-3 at night and the rest at daytime pin. Half life is 3 hours which means it’s completely eliminated after 18hours but 85% of that dose is gone in 9 hours. If doing one pin you’re pretty much at near zero for 15 hours and imo that’s suboptimal. But, do I as you wish.

I dose 430 am, I sleep at 830 pm and sleep great. However I do want to go am/pm dose schedule for benefits you mention. I am worried it will wreck my sleep
