HGH trial dose

[GrumpyOldMan]

I've been feeling like crap for about three years, no enery/stamina/interest. Been to the GPs for many bloods and other tests with nothing to show for it, other than a long list of issues. I was like the guy I read about on here who was sleeping in his car during the day to make it through work. I've improvedd a lot over three years through supplements and diet, but it's still a chore. Exercise is no fun at all, but I forced myself to lose 50 pounds over a few months.

The GPs would not even consider hormone issues, tried to prescribe anti-depressants instead. So I forked out the $s for a 'Men's Health Clinic', but all they really want to do is push dick pills. I did end up on a low dose of test, which seemed to improve my mood for a little while, but the effect has faded. I'll see if I can hit them up for a higher dose when I retest, but the current GP won't refill in any event.

So I wanted to buy 100 iu of HGH to experiment with, but I'm wondering if I should go for 2 iu for 50 days or try to make it last as long as possible to gain the most benefit. I'll be doing my own test cycle, likely after the HGH.

I will likely go to the US next year and find a real clinic, but I want to find some relief at lower $s in the mean time

i say instead of doing 2 iu /ed SQ , shoot it at 6iu /e3d IM , much better results with same amount used.
and btw what's ur weekly test dose ? and stats ? u wanna relieve low T symptoms B4 thinking of adding anything else, T dosage and estro control (AI) first.

Yea GH can take a long time to "feel" a difference....and at the price, my gosh better to dial in your Test and AI doses, and find out if you need thyroid, cortisol, or other issues...check out the Adrenal Fatigue thread sort of seems it might apply....

Thanks guys, I posted a bunch of test results but I see they are not in the thread, so I'll try again:

Blood tests are recent, Saliva are about 1 year old.

Stats: 50 yo, 190, 15% bf, BP 125/70, HR 65
Test: 5gr Androgel ED

I want to see if the dick doc will put me on injections and increase the dose of T, but I'm not hopeful. Will be getting my own Test in a while, but that will not be a reliable supply for long term use.
