Why would you not plan on using it long term. That’s the whole point in using it. That where’s the benefits are, in long term use. Just like rHGH. You may receive some of the benefit early on but the benefits everyone seeks out in the first place are the ones that stick it out for the long run. I was blessed to have had the ability to have run serostim and humatrope for close to 2 years. I had buddy’s that ran it for a few months. They all wish that they wouldn’t have sold all the kits we had and held on to theirs like I did
