Started HGH - IGF-1 went down?

October 2024: IGF-1 was 206
November 2024: purchased Gentropin 210 IU in Mexico, Started at 2 IU
December 2024: IGF-1 was 169 (I was also taking Metformin and stopped that right after the test came back at 169. I also bought a test kit from RoidTest and the results on the HGH were inconclusive. I also upped it to 3IU per day
January 2025: IGF-1 is now 188

I know the Metformin can effect the IGF-1 levels. I probably should not have taken it with the HGH to begin with but I was hoping I would have at least bounced back to pre HGH levels since dropping it and increase it to 3IU per day. My concern is I have bunk Mexico HGH.

This is my first go around with HGH. Other factors: 54 yoa, 200 Test per week (TRT). 15%-18% body fat, 220 lbs. Diet is clean and I lift as heavy as these aging joints will let me. Iā€™ve dabbled in some gear previously with a 400 mg test per week with primo and anadrol. 3 months of that brought some muscle growth but mostly just fucked up my hair and gave me vicious acne on my chest and back so Iā€™m done with that.

Any insight would be appreciated.

Bad gh most likely.

And you are not referring to Genotropin correct?

Nope, itā€™s Gentropin. I thought I was buying Genotropin (and getting it at a steal) until I looked closer after the first IGF-1 test. Kinda feel like a chump
