Post up your Natty IGF-1 Level

Unfortunately its not that simple.

Everybody responds differently, and the same person can respond differently depending upon several things (diet comes to mind as the biggest factor I can think of right off hand, other hormones, etc.).

For sure. My natty IGF-1 was 237 and actually went down on 2.4iu of GH. Trying to figure this out I found this video.

John Jewett and many others like vigorous steve, Kurt Havens, etc., are forum lurkers. Their videos always come out a few weeks/months after certain issues are discussed here.

Last year I was on 2-5iu GH/day, and my igf-1 ranged from 88 to 157. But I was a heavy drinker. A month ago I quit GH (because of CTS) and alcohol. After three weeks of no alcohol and no GH my IGF-1 is at 125. I look forward to seeing where it is after another six weeks.

That is a very interesting post. Thank you for sharing.

Unlikely you'll double the value even though your values are already high without hgh, You could most definitely up those values higher of course , you are blessed with a high count ,,

If I increase my levels, would I feel any effect at all? Would 1.5-2 IU be enough to have any effect?

 

[saltcake]

natural IGF-1: 112 ng/mL
175mg/week of test - IGF-1: 205 ng/mL

Good question, unfortunately i don't think "Anyone" can answer that, you would just have to give it a go and see, sorry i don't have a definitive answer for you, ,

208 ng/mL (maint cals, 150mg test/week, E2 was 25)

265 ng/mL (surplus cals, 400 mg test and 200mg deca, E2 was 46)

Late 40's. Take 5mg of melatonin nightly. After these test results I think I'll save my HGH stash for when I'm in a deficit.

That is a sweet spot for e2 for me personally @45-50

How much units of HGH you guys think that you would need to be around 700ng/mL? I'm trying to know the HGH equivalent of my secretagogues.

16.64 IU/d

Secreatagogues,, Seriously?? Why not just do hgh? and eliminate "the impossible equivalent " that i think you'll have a hard time discerning,

Stick to GH, secretagogues high dosed and run longer timeframes will fuck up your prolactine aka shoot it high

From what I understand, a secretagogue won't downregulate IGF like low dose GH could. Either does nothing or increases it. Seems a good alternative to 1-2iu / day.

Not possible to achieve IGF levels like a high GH dose could ofc.

nah be serious man, a range is good.

I've been doing rHGH a lot too but I just prefer my current secretagogues stack.

Can't speak for the others, but the clinical trials show prolactin doesn't move on Tesa.

"No clinically significant changes in the levels of other pituitary hormones, including thyroid- stimulating hormone (TSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and prolactin, were observed in patients receiving EGRIFTA in clinical trials."

To achieve 737ng/mL, would you need a high GH dose?

No idea. That's supra physiologic and Tesa, at the only dose range I ever see mentioned 1.6-2mg achieves anything like that.
