When should you start HGH?

[Nemisis RR]

With just recovery, logevity and wellness in mind at what age should someone start HGH? Would probably want only small dosages (2iu every other day). As I am getting older being active is hurting a lot more.

I'm sure it's different for everyone, but I started at 39,now 40, and wish I would have started in my early 30's. Great for recovery from workouts, sports, etc. I thought I would only use 10-15 iu's per week when I started, but depending on your goals, you may end up using more than that. I'm up to about 25 iu's per week, and feel even better. Gh is the only thing I take for now besides some AF supplements. Good Luck. Lots of good info here on EF.

For longevity and wellness, I'd say start early to mid 30's. Technically your GH levels may start to dip as early as 23-25 years of age. I am a competitor and have been using it for 2 1/2 years. I'm 25 years old. My skin is amazing, sleep is wonderful, vascularity is very pronounced, recovery from extremely intense workouts is incredible, and of course my size is preserved when not using AAS. I don't use monster doses either, anywhere from 4 to 8 iu every other day. It's about as close as you can get to a real "fountain of youth". I plan to use it indefinitely.

I would start over 40 and when my test levels dropped low within range and my esto started to climb. It seems that adding HGH with test and a-dex produces the best cocktail for a HRT program.

I started way too late at 60, but still received a lot of benefits.

Funny you mention recovery because that is my major reason to start. I am 37 and weight training, cardio, grappling, kids, and work have left me hurting. I never touched anything as I was always able to put on muscle easily. At age 34 I was 190 at 5'4 and no one thought I was fat. In the last 3 years things have changed.

Do you guys think a low dosage of 1.5 to 2 iu would be felt.

I think that would be great.. If I were you though.. I would go to an anti-aging Dr or a holistic Dr and have all your hormone levels checked.. you may have low test/thryoid/gh who knows??

Great advice. You'd be surprised what goodies you can get covered by your insurance if you have deficiencies. A little HGH, synthroid, and testosterone will give you a different body in a matter of months.

Starting march 1st. I'm 50. Good shape, and on TRT now. Run 2 cycles a year. PCT is pointless at my age. I have two teenagers. So just run low dose test, and cruise until I want to do another cycle. maybe some Var.

Do most you guys by GH from direct suppliers, or go through "clinics".
My Uroligist gets my Test and Blood Work done. So who needs a clinic?
They charge like 5 times more $$$. I'm going with Hygetropin. any advise?

The only reason guys go through clinics/docs/endo's is that if you do have low IGF-1 levels many insurances with cover GH therapy. Then you're paying maybe $7 instead of $700 from the doc, or whatever you pay from direct suppliers.

400i.u's 1.75-2.0/ i.u. for Hyge. Thanks pretty good. I get blood work done by my urologist for TRT, so I'm good, and He's cool. Should save a bunch of cash. I'm just running it for anti-aging anyway. So it's only like 2i.u.'s ED

I am 38 and started using HGC about a month ago. I was looking for a human growth hormone and HGC was the easiest to find. The contents come in a 5000IU powder vial and I mix in 100UI of the provided water. I inject 10 units (500IU) eod as recommended and I feel much better, work out much harder every day.

But reading other posts about HGH, ie: Somatropin, you guys are talkin 2iu eod. Am I doing way too much or is it completely different? Should I be lookin for Somatropin or is HGC ok also? Is it OK to use by itself or should I use it in conjuction with others. And last, once mixed does it have to be refridgerated?

Completly different products. HCG is to kick start your own test production.
