Newbie female considering HGH

**mkt** · 02-02-2012, 04:33 PM

Hi there!

I blew it and asked something i shouldn't have in my previous very long posting so I'll keep this short...

Is it worth doing a 1 month cycle for an otherwise light athletic female who wants to just get some better muscle tone?

i think I lost muscle on an HCG diet and have never been very muscly. I'm one of those skinny/flabby girls and the more I diet to lose the flabby parts, the worse it gets.

now I have problems with my knees that my doctor is attributing to lack of strength.

any recommendations? I've read that 1 month isn't enough, that it will be beneficial, that I'll have crazy hormonal fluctuations, that I'll be better off.... that it can only be injected, that the pills work.

I'd love to hear some opinions form this forum.

I work out with weights and cardio nearly daily.

Thanks!

no it will not be worth it. GH need to be run for 6 months min.
It is only injections not pills. The pills are supplement not real gh

Why dont you make a post in the new female section and introduce yourself. There are a bunch of good girls here that can help you with your goals. And there is a female only forum you can get access too

Welcome mkt!

Yep as Gix said, 1 month will not do much of anything since hgh is a long term compound.

I hope you hang around and read and come to the nutrition forum where the members can help you with your food if you think perhaps this might help you. We all end up there sooner or later!

And also the workout forum for some tips too.

Glad you are here and hope you enjoy the site!

thanks! I may go ahead and commit to 6 months once i understand costs better. are these daily injections though? that's quite a commitment

Welcome to the board luv!

As my knowledgeable associates above me have pointed out, a one month course of HGH is not of any benefit.

Good to have you here!

mkt, don't worry about the commitment. When you start feeling the benefits you can't wait for the next day to take the shot. It doesn't hurt at all and you'll feel pretty dang good.

k. i'll go 6 months.

now to get started.....

**SlimmerMe** · 02-07-2012, 08:47 AM

^^ what kind of dose are you thinking about? and do you have pharma grade? hopefully so

Keep us posted......

**mkt** · 02-07-2012, 12:20 PM

Hi there! I have some on delivery and will start this week!

unless there are some sort of considerations on when i should start. is there a menstrual cycle thing?

sorry gents. maybe this is a question for the female only forum

**SlimmerMe** · 02-07-2012, 12:26 PM

no timing at all. Just start whenever you would like to start. how many units of hgh are you thinking about?

**mkt** · 02-07-2012, 12:32 PM

1.5 was suggested to me. thoughts? I'm not a body builder per se but i do want to build muscle and have had a hard time of it in the past.

IMO? I would start out lower. And then ramp up slowly. Take your time. Let your body adjust to prevent sides like fatigue ( which will keep you out of the gym.)

**mkt** · 02-07-2012, 12:45 PM

start with 1?

**mkt** · 02-07-2012, 12:48 PM

to be clear. i meant ius not mgs

**Nofinshline** · 02-07-2012, 05:51 PM

My wife is very happy with 1.5 iu ED. She's been on 8 months. It has helped her burning fat , of course with a clean diet.

that is what I thought

You can start low as in .5 and then ramp up to 1 then up from there. I started high and ended up going back down and found my sweet spot to be around 1 unit quite honestly. Sometimes I lowered to .5 just to ration a bit. We all react differently. I had pharma grade. Hope you do too.

Looking forward to hearing about your experience. When do you plan to take it? Whenever you do, make sure to wait to eat on either side of injection for an hour; especially carbs since hgh and carbs do not get along.

Hope you have some great sweet dreams~

NOTE:

Dr Uzzi Reiss who wrote "Natural Superwoman" suggest to begin dosing with .05mg- 1.5mg weekly and the maximum dose, 3mg weekly of HGH for women. (note mgs not units) Dr. Theirry Hertoghe, longtime pioneer and advocate of HGH, is in line with Riess as well as many other physicians. They feel that females have so many hormones at play and high doses of HGH are unnecessary for women. In addition Suzanne Somers strongly advocates that a female should make sure all of her hormones are completely balanced before taking HGH. Somers passionately believes that unless female hormones are balanced, weight gain will occur as supported by other physicians she interviewed in her book "Breakthrough." Somers takes 0.08 mg of HGH per day. (Note: This too is mgs not units.) This equals about .25 units per day for Somers.

5x's per week is fine as many here do 5 on and 2 off
and weekly? as far as the post above yours stating doses weekly? I think that meant a "total of hgh" for the actual week

hgh is for either everyday or every other day or 5 on 2 off.....like that. Not once a week. I can see how that could be confusing so glad you asked.
