Before I started, the doc did a complete blood workup. My IGF-1 was 169 w/o any supplementation. Doc said optimal range is 250 -290. So at 70/iu, I should be very close to optimal according to him but nowhere near the 400-500 you are recommending.
I like what I am hearing from the Lion. I was concerned that I might be spending all of that coin and doing nothing but suppressing my normal growth hormone production.
Does anyone know whether human growth hormone - somatropin - supplementation "knocks down" natural production like testosterone does? If so, is there some form of PCT - post cycle therapy - for HGH?

My Dr believes that it does and he is adamant about NOT having this happen. This area of the brain controls a great number of vital systems and is not to be toyed with.
PCT for this shutdown? I have no knowledge or experience, but would guess there is not. Imagine trying to live with a damaged hypothalamus.
