I am aware that very significant GH use can cause high BS, diabetes

My question is how potent is GH - generally speaking - in terms of elevating blood sugar? How much a concern is it for low doses, like 2-3 units?
My units I mean real GH from big pharma. Not generic or chinese or something, but the real deal

Does 2 units per day elevate blood sugar a lot as to cause concern?
...when is it an issue?

I hear some people using 4-10 units per day so wondering what the proportions are in all these

(I don't want diabetes)
 
Depends on the person in my experience, get a glucose meter and keep track of your fasting glucose values each morning and you'll have your answer.

I don't think 2-3 IU/d would move the glycemic needle too much.

I use 10 IU/d and employ some preventative anti-hyperglycemics like berberine and empagliflozin. Also do cardio and a low carb diet. Seems to maintain insulin sensitivity fairly well.
 
4iu (along with being a fat shiii) put my a1c at 5.6.

No idea what it is now, as I run 20iu but Im on a heeeavy dose of Tirz that is aiding in controlling the GH, along with being waaay down in weight
