    Is Gaining 10 lb's During Bloat Phase Normal?

    Hi,

    I'm on my third week of using HGH. I weighed my self today and I have gained 10 pounds in 3 weeks. I think it's water weight. I noticed I was getting bloated after the first week, my face seemed puffy and my jeans fit a litter tighter but I thought this was a normal side. Has any one gained 10 pounds during the bloat phase? Is this normal?

    This is my first time using HGH. I'm only doing 2 iu's per day. I was planning on upping the dose after six weeks but I'm not sure now.

    I was also very lethargic for about 2 weeks but that seems to have passed. I've been working-out and doing cardio 5 days a week. Other than the bloat I feel fine.

    It very well could be. GH is known to do that.

    If you are only on GH and everything else is the same then the difference could only be accounted for by GH.

    I've never heard of legit GH causing bloating to that extent. You didn't specify which brand of GH you're taking, whether pharm grade or generic, but the chinese are well known to use anti-diuretics to simulate the effects of GH......

    I was bloated for the first few weeks but it calmed down. Now, GH just makes me lean! I dropped about 5% body fat in 6 weeks. Unfortunately bloating is one of the sides along with carpal tunnel. I always suggest building up the dose slow, say 2iu every 2 weeks, and the sides are more manageable.

    No its not common to bloated that much, I suspect its Chinese hgh and probably the anti duretic crap they sometimes put in it. The hgh bloat isn't that much and usual subsides after the first week if so. I would check your bp the fake stuff also sends that to a dangerous level.

    Thanks for all the responses.
    I'm using Chinese blue tops. My blood pressure seems normal. I did a search on them and they look legit but I'm not sure. I'm going to give it one more week, if I keep bloating I'm going to stop.

    hi Marcus!
    so my bloat was around for a long time and I was on Omnitrope.....is this because this is a case of female vs male?
    or just me? or the Omnitrope? I could not stand it.....any thoughts?

    if you say this is not common, that is why I ask.....not a hyjack OP just trying to continue the dialogue....
