    who has used 1-1.5iu and seen positive effects?

    My mother is 50+ and using hgh, I started her off at 1iu split into morning/night 0.5 shots. I will bump it up to 1.5iu soon, and would there be much of a noticeable difference at those dosages in her age?

    Is she not finding 1IU effective enough? If so, bump up to 1.5IU but I wouldn't think she would need anymore than that. If she is happy with 1IU I suggest she doesn't change anything.

    Women are especially sensitive to HGH. I have women start at .5iu/ed and move slowly up to 1iu/ed or 1.5iu/ed. Most women seem to do fine at 1iu/ed.

    she has just recently started actually the third day, i'm not trying to act anxious. I'm curious if I had put her on a good dosing regimen, I suppose because of her age it is fine for now 0.5 morning 0.5 night? If she doesn't notice much after few months 1.5 should be the max I presume?

    and btw is it like testosterone , how woman are more sensitive to hgh, it'll make a big difference for her?

    It's still early to tell. Give it a few weeks and see how she feels after that. If she feels no effects then increase the dose by .5IU.

    Where did you get the idea of taking HGH at night? People who naturally produce insufficient amounts of HGH are usually instructed to take HGH at night. If she does not have this issue I advise she takes 1IU at once in the AM upon waking up instead of splitting the dose into two multiple shots.

    I am still unsure for what reason she is taking HGH. Was it prescribed to her by her doc? If so, for what reason? Is it for a particular condition? If she was advised to take this much HGH by her practitioner and to take it at night then I suggest she follows his/her protocol.

    she is taking to help with her arthritis, and other benefits she will enjoy skin, well being etc. I was just advised by my friend for her to take half morning and half at night because she is 53 to improve her release at night as well. Shall she stick to one full dosage in the morning, or at least morning and afternoon and before sleep no need?

    This will do the opposite and blunt her nightly release.
