HGH: A How-To Guide

blshaw are you asking me or studhammers? Incase its me. Here’s her protocol.
My wife has a T cyp injection on Mondays that I give her.
Her script reads inject .30 mL /w. Her T consideration is 50mg/mL
She has an E2 and progesterone cream she applies every evening. I don’t know the concentration.
She takes oxytocin daily and 5mgx2 every day of Anavar year round no cycling.

Balancing E2 when still menstruating required a real doctor who knows her stuff.
Don’t cheap out and try to do this on your own with UGL gear.
HTH remember mid range is not optimized for longevity.

My wife is on a combo of estrogen and testosterone pellets implanted every 12 weeks and a nightly dose of progesterone. Like @hrdlvn’s wife, mine has changed significantly in response and libido.

I always get nervous, I’ve had a few hundred points of variability between TRT bloods so I want to stay as clean as possible prior to bloods. Here is a study that shows how HGH can affect T in rats. This was enough to cause me not to use it close to my test. I’ve read some experts that say it doesn’t affect T, but I haven’t seen any studies to back up those claims. It may be a small increase, I’m not sure.

OK thanks, I’ve been on TRT for over 7 years and I am pretty sure my balls are dead. When working they only produced 173ng/dL of TT. I usually don’t get in trouble with my clinic unless I am way over the upper limit. I was more concerned with HGH effecting my lipids or A1C in a negative way.

That is so cool to read you got your wife to checkout HRT.
It really does make a huge difference in their overall mood.

My wife has been on 20mg of injectable test Cyp weekly for 2 years now. She has had nothing but positive results. She was initially put on progesterone and estrogen with test pellets, with less that stellar results. Her prescription is $85 a year without insurance as our HRT Dr. doesn’t accept it.

hmcyl, I know T injections will help her with E2 but I don’t think it helps boost her progesterone.
Hopefully she is getting a small blood test every 6 months or so until she gets dialed in.
I was never a fan of pellets because if the doc got it wrong you can’t adjust the dose the patient just has to live with screwed-up hormones. Something to consider in the future.

We definitely stay on top of the blood work!

@studhammer has your wife tried hgh? My wife has been considering it, but it would be nice to hear about someone’s experience. I have ran it twice, both times after a surgery and loved it

Just for a very brief time during my first try. The carpal tunnel issues were affecting her too much.

How are her lipids on 10mg/day Anavar?

I had to do some digging. Here is her before anavar lipids and after. HTH

sorry @studhammer don’t mean to derail your HGH thread.

Before Anavar

After now with Anavar

Thanks man, I appreciate you taking the time to find this. It’s interesting her HDL actually went up, I’d expect the contrary. LDL didn’t move much. The only thing that moved significantly is triglycerides.
I’ll post my labs asfter 5-6 weeks on Anavar, hopefully I can have as good a reaction as your wife, her lipids still look good.

How is she feeling with Test that high? I think you mentioned something about better mood and sex drive somewhere. No worries and sorry if this is too personal by the way.

Not personal at all my friend. We are all here to help one another be better and share what we have found. Give Anavar a through testing. You can always get you lipid back in shape when you stop. For me the pump I get from Anavar is so much better that other AAS I have tried. That said I have not tried many. I am old and have to go slow. I look forward to your test results. please post them.

I definitely will. Same here, in my 40’s now I’m not trying to go balls to the wall, just looking to find a good longevity to performance ratio. Starting GH next week and after that will try low dose Anavar and see what happens.

I have been on HGH for about 10 days. I started with 1 IU then 2 then 3 and now 4 IU every evening at bedtime as studhammer suggested. Everything he has posted is what I have experienced.
Last night I did have some insomnia. I have had it before HGH I believe it is a part of my mental illness that I am working thru while I am attempting to bodybuild at the same time.

My plan is to hold 4 IU per evening. I am not sure if it is helping with my sleep but my pumps from the day at the gym seem to hold over night. I am only on 80mg/wk TRT right now nothing else. My family whos know none of my proclivities seem to be noticing my muscle development and commenting in a positive way. 80 mg/w Of T cyp and 4 Iu if HGH seems to be working well as I clean up my lipids for a future cycle of T E and Anavar. Only time will tell.

That’s interesting, I just dropped my TRT from 155mg/week to 125mg/week and feel much better but I think I might feel even better lower. I used to think more was better, but I realized that aromatization is really what’s preventing the use of higher dosages of Test for me.

So I came to the conclusion that I should just run a true TRT dose (around 100-125mg/week) and for real muscle building, sprinkle some extra stuff on top that doesn’t aromatize (Primo, Anavar, Masteron…).

For GH, my doc has me starting at 0.6iu/day and building up to 1.8iu/day over 3 months. I don’t mind, I hadn’t even planned to go that high to be honest, but if it’s sustainable long term and gives more benefits than just 1iu/day, I’m all for it.

Have you noticed any healing effects on GH? Tendon/soft tissue injuries healing faster, better recovery from workouts, stuff like that?

No but I have no physical injuries. I am pain free except the usually amount of DOM’s the next day after a hard workout. I am not sure what to expect from taking the GH. When the big boys take it they seem to also use insulin and I have no plans to go there. My plans for now is to hold 4IU for 4 weeks and just see what happens then I’ll drop back to 2IU until I run out. Then I will decide if I want to order more.
I mostly bought this 100IU for just an experiment to see how my body would react while only on maint TRT. So far there has been no bad sides at all.

That’s awesome you’re pain free, wish I could say the same haha. I’m hoping HGH will help with this.
Same for me, it’s gonna be low-ish TRT (125mg/week) + 1-2iu/day GH, that’s it for now. Then I’ll start playing with a bit of Anavar. But I’ll update this thread once I start the GH in a week. Can’t wait.
