Why am I peeing like every two hours!?!

Quick Stats:
Weight - Was 220 Friday now around 215
Bf - mid teens
6'1"
28 (mainly taking HGH for injury recovery)

Finished a 10 week Test E cycle (500mg/wk) just over two weeks ago. Blew up as expected, mostly water but tons of strength. Started running 2IUs GH two weeks before the end of cycle. 3rd week went up to 2.5IUs and then this past week was doing 3IUs split up twice per day. Planned to stay at 3 for another week, then 4 maxing out at 5. For the first four weeks I did it every day, this past weekend though I planned to switch to 5/2, so Friday were my last shots as of right now (Sunday evening). Currently the only other thing I am on is 20mg Nolvadex a day, and planned on running that for 30 days as a light PCT.

I lost 15 pounds of water the first two weeks after my test cycle, mostly that second week. However I was not noticing any dramatic changes in urination or sweating - I was less thirsty and therefore taking in much less water during workouts though (during this last AAS I was doing intense physical therapy and cardio in the morning and lifting in the afternoons getting in around a gallon and a half water a day - I'm getting under a gallon now). I went along with it since even though my body actually looks pretty good when water heavy (I do not get that soft looking in the muscles) my face and gut do show it.

So now to the issue - since this morning I have had to piss almost every other hour. I've usually have the bladder of camel too, but its filling up faster than I can manage. I was very bad this weekend I will admit - I rarely drink but Friday night was my cousin's wedding which I was in, so naturally it was a shit show and I drank a ton. Then Saturday being back home for the first time in forever and being with a certain crowd and not wanting to drink again, I did another thing which I very very very rarely (like once a year or two) do, and that was smoke quite a bit of marijuana.

No changes to diet (I don't eat clean, but I don't eat crap either - even with the wedding and the munchies). So is it the alcohol, weed, or maybe the Nolva really kicking in and just shedding water? Or is the HGH causing some kind of diabetic reaction. Any thoughts?

What time do you take your HGH? and for your own sake, you might want to speak in code as far as your recreational activity you mentioned to prevent any kind of notice which I am not sure..but could happen!

I take it 1.5 hours before I am up for the day and then again at around 2 (pre-workout). I didn't take it all all this past weekend as I went from an every day schedule to 5/2. I took another shot again this morning (just 2 IUs) and was flying all day so didn't take a second dose. Today I had no issues with peeing.

I was thinking and am wondering if Insulin would do this (they are yellow tops and I am wondering if they substituted slin for GH). I doubt it since I do not feel hypoglycemic after the shot but who knows.

Haha, that is going to be completely legal for U.S. adults to consume on their own accord (i.e. not under doctor supervision), likely long before anything else we talk about on here!

might wanna get your prostate checked dude, all that test might have have given you hypertrophy of the prostate.... just a thought.... most likely wrong,, but a thought.

just part of the RULES here re: your orignal post... and since you are new I thought I would give you head's up...

^^^Thanks for looking out, I hadn't read the rules in detail! Anyway I am taking weekends off from the HGH (5/2) and noticed today that I was peeing more as well, just not nearly as much as last week. I am fairly certain my stuff is good, albeit maybe underdosed a tad, so maybe I am just more sensitive to the insulin sensitivity effects?...

Enlarged prostate and high blood sugar levels/diabetes are a couple of the major causes of frequent urination. You should have these 2 things checked by your doctor to be safe and/or rule them out as causes.

I think for whatever reason my body has decided to get rid of most of the water I put on during my last AAS cycle (I put on TONS of water weight) on the weekends when I am resting more. I am actually under close medical supervision for other stuff and my labs look fine
