HGH: Cost vs. Benefit

**gymsoldier** · 08-13-2012, 09:15 AM

I know a lot of the guys on here are using HGH.
But can someone please tell me what benefits they have noticed using it (personal experiences).

I just can't get my head around the cost factor, and minimum running time being six months.
After a year on HGH can you tell yourself that yes, it was worth spending X amount of money?

alot depends on your age. If you are older you will see and feel more from it.

Better sleep? Better recovery? Much increase in LBM?

**gixxerboy1** · 08-13-2012, 09:28 AM

i wouldnt say i sleep better. yes i do recover better. as for lbm there is far more results with steroids . you need to run a pretty good dose of gh for lm gains. Again age is a factor in that

I suppose another way of asking would be, if you personally stopped using HGH now, how would feel a few months down the line?

I'm 36 and have been running it off and on since 2009. I love it. So worth the price.

What have you personally noticed from it to justify the high price tag.

I am not pro by far but I have found the head ache of dealing with HGH is not worth the trouble. Fake, real, chinese blah blah blah.

My source tells me to go down to the ghetto and start offering people coming out of the aids clinics money for their prescription if I want a 100% gurantee I am getting real pharm grade hgh lol

I can see that being a major problem too. Sure is it true that HGH is faked more than juice?

Yes. Real GH is harder to synthesize and produce than gear. about 90% on market is fake.

I run 10iu daily. Has increased vacularity and possibly reduced bf but the bf reductions and LBM gains are likely more a function of gear than GH. If cash is limited, I would invest in gear before GH. As Gix said, benefits are greater with age as GH is on the decline so supplementing in the aged population generally produces benefits in weight management (not dramatic IMO), sleep, recovery.

I do attribute the recovery of my torn calf muscle to GH (and likely gear to some degree). Surgeon told me expect 6 months recovery. At 5-6 weeks post injury, I am already back to lifting 400lbs on the calf.

That's the best benefit I've heard yet. Have you noticed your joints being better using HGH?

I think its worth it after you have reached a certain level,,,for the more expereinced without doubt.
Mass and muscle gains are best and quickest with AAS.

So much is fake. I have been on generics for the past few months either they were fake under dosed its just crap. I have done pharma grade and the difference is night and day.

I am glad you started this thread. I have been hinting to my dad, who is 50, about trying to get GH treatments. His DR said absolutley not and told dad the price and he said absolutley not. He has been unable to work or run his company for years, even though he still does. He is in aweful shape. And from this thread, I still believe that a therapeutic dose of about 2 i.u. would be awesome for him, even though he is down to living off savings. Thanks for the thread!
