Big jump in IGF without adding hgh?

[flatscat]

Just got b/w results back last week. First results in about a yr I think. My Insulin-like growth factor I, more than doubled from 113 to 279 which is out of range - high.

Just on HRT, no hgh taken.

I am really pleased with this, but wondering what caused it so I can keep doing it.

OR, do you think it is a bad result for that test?

I have read and always heard that adding testosterone can increase IGF, but never saw it and never heard anyone else say it happened to them.

Thanks,

Flats

Your levels vary throughout the day. This is probably a combination of that and the testosterone. 279 is not that high, when I was on cjc/ghrp combo my levels went from about 150 to just over 500 in 5 weeks.

(Sorry for the post not related to this subject, please ignore me)Hi, DCannon. I dont want to highjack this thread but i couldnt think of other ways to contact you other than to post here. Its weird how this forum doesnt have private message. I came across your thread that was 2 years old about HGH and kidney problem and the doctor in Texas. Im actually from Texas and my mother is having a kidney failure. I was curious how you were doing or if you started the treatment. If you can email me about the description. here is my email [email protected]

Testosterone increases igf-1

[flatscat]

Right and thanks, but I had been on t for a long time before as well. Always came back low. Almost out of range low. Imma take the good numbers and keep doin what I'm doing.

Just a thought, how where you reconstucting your igf? I heard everything needs to be the same temp, mixed slowly, and kept refridgerated. Directed towards Flatscat and your low levels.

One more dumb question. how does IGF - 1 correlate to GH numbers if at all?

GH is processed by the liver and causes the release of several growth factors, the primary being IGF-1.

IGF doesn't increase test though correct?

[flatscat]

So an increase in IGF1 is directly related to an increase in GH. Thanks
