    Advice: IGF1 or HGH (with Test)

    Im looking to do a 4-6mo cycle of 2 of the following in the subject line. Im just unsure between hGH and IGF1. I guess my main concern is with my age. Im 24 and have been told by a pharmacy that I *could* stop the natural production of hGH in my body if I took too much hGH or rather for too long. Then when Im 35 I would be dependent on injections. Im not sure if this is the case with IGF1

    My other concern is if one compliments the test more. Pricing is obviously a consideration as well. It would be LR3 vs Hyge

    Lastly, as for timing, is it true that either GH or IGF1 I should start a good month before the test since it takes longer to get into full effect? Thanks guys

    At 24?? IGF! I am 26 and I did 3 months of HGH, what a waste. You need to be on at least 6 months for it to be effective, and at your age you would need a dose of at least 4 IU's a day.

    Go with IGF, that's the whole reason I did HGH in the first place, if I had known more about the IGF, I would have saved my money.

    Im not really to sure on what you are asking. Are you planning on doing Test, IGF or HGH for 4-6 months? Test 12-16 weeks tops and IGF is not to be ran past 5 weeks max 4 weeks being the standard. HGH is best ran for a year. BTW HGH long term sides seem to be linked to the higher BB doses.

    IGF for 4 weeks? thats all?

    What Im saying is Im running Test regardless of anything. Im trying to decide between gh and igf. So its Test+IGF or Test+HGH

    If I were to do the IGF and the 4 and 12weeks apply then I could do
    Week
    1-4 Test, IGF
    5-8 Test
    9-12 Test, IGF

    something like that?
    I was planning on a lower dosage of test, approx 300mg. Not sure about dosing for IGF just yet, been reading more into HGH but the fact its longterm, that Im young, and that its super $, maybe the IGF would be better anyhow.

    Suggested dosage of IGF? since I work out 4days a week was thinking of 4/3 but possibly 5/2

    Thanks, hope I made sense this time!

    That's good too, although around here a lot of the heavy hitters have been using their IGF with their PCT

    If you are using a long acting ester, may I recommend using the IGF on weeks 4-8 to coincide with your test ester, and then maybe doing a second 4 weeker with your PCT. That way you get a 4 week break as well as the benefit of the IGF when your test kicks in.

    I dunno guys like Rodge and Bino are the ones to ask for sure, but the above would still be good for you.

    As far as being dependent on GH at 35, your natural production is believed to taper off around there anyway.

    Hmmm.... adding fluid to joints, very good strength/muscle gains, it always done me justice.

    I really dislike progestins, but deca is obviously a popular AAS with others in here.
