    Natty IGF1 levels low

    I just got blood work back from Oasis and while across the board I am healthy as a horse I do have oddly low IGF levels, 88 when for my age and sex I should be 115-307. I have to date never touched HGH or any of the IGF/MGF products on the market, while I have theoretically cycled AAS a bit . My thoughts are kind of all over the place on this, I fully intend to take the blood tests to my regular doc for his opinion to make sure I am not missing a possible pituitary issue that needs managed at another level. I am also thinking of doing an HGH program occasionally to raise my IGF levels. My thinking was to do a 30 week HGH program at 3iu /day going 5 on 2 off. Ramping up week one at 1 iu week two at 2iu and from week three on out 3 iu/day. From what I read this seems to be a proper protocol that will give me replacement dose with some gaining effects, is this thinking correct? Another question I have is will there be a period of heightened IGF levels following cessation of the HGH program?

    Well it seems you have a pretty good idea of what your doing, and you have a good base of knowledge. You may want to work your way up to 6 iu's 5 on 2 off. Maybe something like this......

    Weeks 1-5: 1 iu 5 on 2 off
    Weeks 6-10: 2 iu 5 on 2 off
    Weeks 11-15: 3 iu's 5 on 2 off
    Weeks 16-20: 4 iu's 5 on 2 off
    Weeks 21-25: 5 iu's 5 on 2 off
    Weeks 26-30: 6 iu's 5 on 2 off

    Depending on your body weight, 2-3 is probably enough to restore natural levels, have some anti-aging benfits. Oasis can direct you on this.

    "Gain" levels of HGH are typically much higher (I think the profile for HGH recommends something like .028IU/KGx2/EOD, or about 5.6/day for a 220lber as a starting level) with many reporting 10-12+ IU/day. As an anti-aging clinic I would doubt that Oasis would prescribe BB doses to you, nor are those amounts cost effective unless you are already taking BB levels of T, etc.
