Your TSH is a bit hypothyroid. And your T4 is low. HGH does influence your thyroid levels.

Do you plan on getting follow-up bloodwork done? If so, I say throw in some T4 then have your levels checked. From what I have read the T4 supplementation will increase the anabolic abilities of the HGH. I know that if I was on HGH then I would be using a small dose of T4 as well to get the most out of the HGH and because HGH is known to convert more T4 to T3, thus leaving lower T4 levels like you are experiencing.

good deal...no reason to really go over 100mcg of T4. That dose sped up my BMR quite a bit and gave me energy.

Do 2 IU a day of GH likely suppress the thyroid function noticeably?
