Night sweats from HGH

[Kralteramon]

Hi Meso Members,

I've recently started a long term regimen of HGH. My plan is to titrate up to 5-6iu. Also running test,primo,deca right now. I feel great on this stack, no issues or major side effects at all except from making very good progress in the gym.

Since I've started the HGH before bed I've been experiencing night sweats and frequent wake ups because of it. Friend of mine is running the same HGH and has the same issue, making me think something is off with the HGH?. It's from QSC, I bought it during the cheap GB. Got 800iu laying around. Could the sweating be due to something else than an issue with the product? My baseline thyroid function is normal.

i'm running some qsc hgh atm and have never experienced any sweating,, Are you having more "dreams" causing you to toss and turn and elevating your hr ?

Thanks, I was also not expecting this. My RHR is elevated for sure by approx 4-5bpm on avg. according to my watch. Not really sure if I have more dreams but I always have prety lucid and insane dreams. Toss and turn is also part of my normal sleep, sheets are always insanely wrinkled where I slept. I'll keep running the HGH for now and see if it gets better until I run labs again beginning of next month. Any other hints on what might be causing the sweats might help add other tests to the bloods panel.

Is your friend also running test, primo and deca? I get night sweats from high test/primo all the time. I’ve never used Deca but NPP did the same.

 

[ZaddyZonar]

Were you running the primo and deca prior to adding the GH into your protocol? Or was it all started at the same time? I’m on test primo Retatrutide and GH right now myself, no night sweats.

He's not running Deca but test primo yes. We track vitals against our dosing schedule, it's 100% the HGH because it happens over night and stays elevated untill you'd expect IGF to go back to baseline (few days). I do get a spike in RHR when upping androgens indeed but that calms down after a week or so after titration.

Titration protocolstarting at cruise dose test with HCG with 3-4 week titration periods with bloodwork. Currently in third titration block where I first added HGH: 300mg test e, 200mg primo, 150mg deca a week + 2.5iu HGH. Next block is my main blast 8 weeks more on 400 mg test, 300 mg primo, 200mg deca & 5iu HGH (want to keep at this HGH dose rest of year) before dropping back to cruise. I want to get a comprehensive overview of my physical response to each dose in order to make educated descisions on how to adjust my future blasts. BTW I also run a little Tirz (1,5mg a week) to combat insulin resistance.

Thanks Ghoul, this could indeed be it. Guess I'll be checking CRP again next round. I don't think my lab tests for IL-6 or TNF-α.

I didn’t have any sleep issues at 2iu, but since increasing to 3.2iu, I’ve been waking up multiple times a night before falling back asleep - no night sweats, though.

HGH can speed up metabolism and raise body temperature, so that could play a role. It also causes some water retention and electrolyte shifts, which might contribute. Another thing to consider is insulin resistance - HGH raises blood sugar, so if you’re noticing other metabolic changes, that could be a factor too. It’s likely just your body adjusting to the increased dose, but if it keeps up, you might want to tweak timing, hydration, or electrolyte intake.

I can't Stress this enough about hgh use , must be PROPERLY HYDRATED, that includes electrolytes, ,

That's completely irrelevant. GH fragments sleep, especially in the second part of the night. It promotes REM and NREM2.

It does not promote slow wave sleep, it fragments sleep and promotes REM. Your response is normal, especially if your sleep is normally more on the fragmented side.

It may not be a high probability, but excess sweating is an immune response to contaminated protein drugs.

The QSC group buy HGH is now 5 months+ old, with no preservative excipients, unlike every pharma formulation. It could easily be heavily degraded at this point.

In this case I doubt it. I’d bet money if they stopped all AAS and continued GH their night sweats would stop. Every single steroid they are using is known to cause night sweats, especially at high doses. And GH is not known to cause night sweats. A lot of us are taking ‘protein drugs’ at night (GH, Tesa, DSIP, Epitalon, etc) and I’d be surprised if one of our members has gotten night sweats from a peptide. I’d also bet there are plenty of members here with GH older than 12 months that are also not getting night sweats from GH.

No man because I when I stop taking the GH, after 1-2 days the night sweats resolve. So it has to be the GH.

simple fix then = DONT DO HGH, ,

Easy peasy. lol

But I am baffled how two people can get night sweats from GH. It’s so unheard of. Makes you wonder what’s really in the vial.

send your hgh to Jano, maybe its got some "Big Aggregates" causing some immune response,,

Yeah I just might do that. However it will be very hard to know what to look for I guess. I'll raise the question in the Jano topic.
