Question: HGH supplementation from MD

[thelion2005]

I am pursuing longevity through improved health under the care of a MD. This includes complete blood testing and hormone supplementation. Test and HGH are primary, of course.

Today we discussed HGH and it boiled down to this:
- My tested level is not low ... just normal.
- It is expensive to purchase with prescription because it is not covered by insurance unless a patients levels are very, very low.
- Regenisis has been raising my levels steadily, but at a snail's pace.

I looked at my Social Security budget and saw that I could afford 15 units. The Doc and his nurse were grinning like I was about to take a step in a very right direction.

So .... I agreed. I am to do 1 every other day. One done under his supervision. Easy.

What can I expect over the next 3 months?

Do you mean 1iu EOD? If this is the case it will equate to very littte. You really need to run GH at, at least 2ius 5on/2off for 3 to six months to get minimum effects.

My apologies .. I mis-spoke. I looked at what he gave me and it is in cc's. He showed me first a white powder and then said they would convert it into a solution.

I go back in 2 weeks and will ask better questions and get the actual box the HGH came in. This will tell me iu amounts and brand.

I want to do some comparison shopping.

I questioned my Doctor some more last Friday about the HGH I am using:

- The brand is saizen, made in Switzerland.
- The program dosage for me is 15 iu per month; 1.25 iu M/W/F.
- This dosage will be held steady for 90 days and then blood testing performed.
- Results to be discussed with Doc and dosage changed if required.

I appreciate that stronger dosages will have stronger effects. I am going very slowly and carefully after reading the list of adverse events in the accompanying literature. I also do not want my normal production to shut down ... I'm looking for supplementation.

You lucky, lucky man.... Saizen, IMO, is the crem de la crem of GH. I used it and absolutely loved it but my source dried up and the price was double that of Jinnos. Personnaly I think that dose is way too low and I'm not a fan of EOD use either. I would be looking at using every day monday to friday with the weekend off. This will still protect your natural release and even at 1.5ius a day will yeild some good results. Also I had zero sides with Saizen except a little nausea when I first took it which I can't say the same for Jintropin... Good luck Lion and I'm now envious...lol

Nausea! I wondered where that came from. Thank you. A bite of food always makes it go away.

HGH is out of pocket expense for me and I'm using what I can afford on a 90 day experiemental basis. A lot of subtle changes are taking place even though it has only been a few weeks. I can really feel a pump now. I also fear I have more strength than good sense and must protect myself from muscle, tendon or ligament tears.

Thanks for the good words.
