    Question GH at 3 IU a day, no sides?

    I have been on GH at 3 IU a day for almost three weeks. I started at 3 IU and have stayed at that level right through (Im also injecting every day to heal a tendon injury). Ive experienced no sides so far. I am sleeping a bit better and my waistline has shrunk a little (lost about half an inch). Ive dropped 3 Lbs weight as well.

    Because there have been no sides at all (Ive been on Jintropin), I thought I was using fake GH. But I am almost absolutely sure the stuff is genuine as I ordered it from a very reliable source.

    So if the stuff is genuine and Ive been on 3 IU a day for almost three weeks, why am I getting no bad sides like joint pain and water retention? Has anyone here used Jintropin at 3IU a day and not experienced any sides? Is this normal?

    I didn't start to really get the sides that everyone talks about until after a month and some people don't get any sides at all. It all depends on the person. I'm on ********** and the most noticable sides I was getting was alittle tingling in my finger tips and when I woke up in the morning my hands were had that bloated feeling and were sore when I made a fist. I took off gh for 10 days because I went on vaction, just started up again 4days ago and being off those 10days the sides that I was having are all gone, so we'll see how long it takes to get them again.

    Are you taking any T3 or T4, because it's funny how alot of the sides that people say they get from gh are the same sides that you get when you start to have hypothyroid, so I figure that some people might not get any sides from there gh if there also using T3 or T4.

    Thanks. I have, however, seen my capacity for sleep increase quite substantially. Before I started with HGH I could sleep 7 hours and function normally. Now I need nine hour of sleep or I really struggle in the day. Ive slept 11 today and it still doesn't feel like enough!

    My impression is that T4 becomes necessary at higher dosages.

    I've been at 3 IU's nearly two months. Using Jin. No sides either, except for the dark circles I've been getting under my eyes, which I've complained about in another thread.

    Zeus, did you start at 2 and work up to 3 or start at 3?

    Just went straight to 3IU's. Been taking that dose 7 days a week. Bumped it up to 5 IU's two days in a row a week ago. No real sides, just the circles under my eyes become more apparent. My eyes felt heavier, like I hadn't slept in days.
