Hello, I am about to start on HGH and would like to do a base test before I begin. besides a full blood test, which i will take, the company I use offers both a HGH test and a IGF-1 test separately. what do you guys reccomend I should apply for?

Can you do both? Probably most important to do IGF1 test if you have to choose.
 
thank you for your reply,
I can do both, I just did't want to test the same things twice.
One is GH serum which IMO, is kind of useless as a "natty" not injecting rHGH. The other is IGF1, which is a much more important "baseline", imo.

GH serum can be useful to benchmark exogenous rHGH vs other exogenous rHGH. E.g., inject 10iu and get a blood test 2 to 3 hours later (time up the peak to benchmark against other GH)

IGF1 is more important to benchmark your current natty level vs using exogenous rHGH. It will take some time for IGF1 to reach steady maximal state, I forget if that's several weeks or months.

However, in the scenario of benchmarking no exogenous rHGH vs using exogenous rHGH, IGF1 is more important.
