GH for life???

**Sharky72** · 03-03-2005, 02:20 PM

Hey Gents, thinking about going on growth for the rest of my days, I'll be test driving it soon and will keep you posted as to my progress.. I've got some quick ? s.

1. Once the natural gh is supressed, is it difficult for the body to start producing again?

2. Is Gh like juice in the way that your body gets used to it at certain doses?
(Example; I take Gh for 6 mths at 2ius a day and get nice results, will 2 ius always work for me?)

3. What are the long term adverse side effects? (My thoughts are to do 6 mths at 2ius 5 days a week with 2 days off. Then off season 1iu a day, 5 on 2 off....)

4. Also when you come off do you feel ****tyy? How is your mood affected?

4 prior cycles (test only) Thanks Gents

Your natural gh output will only be supressed if you inject more then 2 times per day. I don't no what long term affects will be but you will not get much out of 2 i.u's.

I think that would be very expinsive.... and I cant personally see the point of not cycling it...

Sharky,

I can only relate my experience to you--backed up by the Anti-aging Doctor that treats me.

I have been using GH for just short of three years now. In the very beginning, I used Saizen at 1.5 IUs per day / 5 days on 2 days off. The doctor taught me to use it in this fashion for six months and then take at least two months off to "rest the system" as he put it. Then, back on for six months, etc., etc.. The cost of Saizen finally drove me to seek out alternative sources and, for the past year and a half, I've been using Jintropin at 3 IUs per day...5 on, 2 off as before. I can say that, even at 1.5 IUs per day, I received benefits in the form of better sleep, more energy, stronger libido and, after four months or so, noticeable fat loss. At 3 IUs, I'm experiencing the same plus, combined with gear, I believe I get improved permanence of the new muscle tissue I gain--less loss due to catabolic processes when in PCT. I have used as much as 5 IUs per day--loved the results (same as above only enhanced) but hated the impact on my wallet.

Anyway, on to your questions:

1. I have always bounced back to normal IGF-1 blood levels while on a rest period--I generally get a test about four weeks after ceasing GH.

2. I continue to get the same results remaining at 3 IUs, there doesn't seem to be a tolerance build-up for me.

3. The docs position is that, long-term effects should not be problematice since I'm keeping to reasonable dosages and taking periodic rests. But, I suppose, no one really knows what the long-range effects will be. People do seem to react differently to different compounds...who's to say. Since I don't go too far beyond endogenous IGF-1 levels, I choose to believe that the long-term effects won't be a problem.

4. After a six-month course of GH, I do feel a marked reduction of energy when I come off the drug. Also, a slight impact to the libido--nothing unmanageable though. My good friend Mr. Cialis comes to the rescue in these times so, I don't see that as a factor.

Hope that helps.

Most studies show normal endogenous productions resumes quickly after discontinued use. And 2iu's is enough as you get older.

BT, You always seem to have answers when it comes to GH so allow me to ask you: If one takes GH for 2 or 3 years straight and then he/she discontinues usage, would that person be able to start normal endogenous production quickly or even within a reasonable amount of time? (For argument sake, let's say the person was taking 3 IUs a day for 6 on and 1 off or even 7 days on).

thanks,

From what I have read(including a book currently) endo production will resume to a level compensated for your age. The negative feedback loop is a bit different and gages igf. However, I think most specialist in anti-aging therapy claim that you should take a break now & then. Best bet is 5/2 split for long use. I think the key is keeping your gh/igf levels somewhat steady for 20-30(250-350ng/dl) year old man meaning not taking excess continually. Supraphysiological levels that are very high is not normal in the human body.
