^^^ Bump, great thread, thought maybe some more thoughts were out there on this subject in 2019.

Here's the summary I've gathered so far:

1. If you're using a larger dose of HGH, let's say over 5iu/day, dosing 1xED at night might be more beneficial as your endo-HGH will be suppressed anyways.

2. If you're using a smaller dose, 1xED in the morning would be best as your own endo-HGH won't be supressed @ night due to the time period between the exo- and endo- release.

3. If you're stacking with insulin, 2xED dosing would be best. Morning and pwo afternoon.

What if your stacking gh with igf-1?

Is it still best to administer gh eod a.m. then igf-1 PWO 4 times a week after the hardest workouts?

Or is some other protocol reccomended???

i can only tell you what i do, gh eod am, igf daily prior to workout. i invite others to share their protocols and rationale.

I understand the a.m. gh eod...There has been some great posting on this concept lateley and I like the theory and the economy issues.

Most people suggest igf-1 Post WO to aid recovery. I was also of the inderstanding that muscles were most receptive post workout. I thought it almost had an insulin type effect and brought about a slight feeling of lethargy? This surely would have a negative effect if one were to administer pre workout?

I understand im is the way to go but have heard experianced body builders say that sq is just as effective.........

I love the idea of igf-1. I receive delivary in a few days and will report findings.

i do im since it is the intra-muscular igf that makes the difference not the systemic and there is some research that local injections actually work.

*how about someone finding that study on the local injections. i am going to start moving these ladmark studies to the vault so we can access them more easily.

SG, the reason I asked about Nolvadex is because it is known to lower IGF-1, so I am wondering if my post-cycle recovery regimen will have a negative impact on the effects of the GH.

Since I am coming off now though, SG, I take it that I should begin with taking the GH with insulin at least for the first month since I have not already begun the GH, right?
Also, are you saying Gh, by itself, could maintain my muscle mass/leanness on its own if it were already built up in my system?

Thank you, guys


Insulin can lead to sodium retention and angiotensin II�mediated aldosterone production.
People should use gh first thing in the morning (does not shut down,the endogenous release,only a few hours post administration) without slin.
GH half life around 10-30 min. Last edited by oswaldosalcedo on 05-03-2019 at 03:22 AM

It doesn't seem.

GH is the short closed loop,there is another loop, the neural open loop.

exogenous GH does shut down the endogenous release.

Circulating GH, IGF-I, IGFBP-3, and sex steroid concentrations decrease with age. GH or sex steroid treatment increases IGFBP-3, but little is known regarding the effects of these hormones on other IGFBPs. We assessed the effects of 26 wk of administration of GH, sex steroids, or GH + sex steroids on AM levels of IGF-I, IGFBPs 1-5, insulin, glucose, and osteocalcin and 2-h urinary excretion of deoxypyridinolline (DPD) cross-links in 53 women and 71 men aged 65-88 yr. Before treatment, in women and men, IGF-I was directly related to IGFBP-3 (P < 0.001 and P < 0.0001) and IGFBP-1 to IGFBP-2 (P = 0.0001). In women, IGFBP-1 was inversely related to insulin (P < 0.0005) and glucose (P < 0.005) and IGFBP-4 to osteocalcin (P < 0.01). IGFBP-4 and IGFBP-5 were not significantly related to DPD cross-links. GH and/or sex steroid increased IGF-I levels in both sexes, with higher concentrations in men (P < 0.001). In women, the IGF-I increment after GH was attenuated by hormone replacement therapy (HRT) coadministration (P < 0.05). Hormone administration also increased IGFBP-3. IGFBP-1 was unaffected by GH + sex steroids, whereas GH decreased IGFBP-2 by 15% in men (P < 0.05). Hormone administration did not change IGFBP-4, whereas in men IGFBP-5 increased by 20% after GH (P < 0.05) and 56% after GH + Testosterone(P = 0.0003). These data demonstrate sexually dimorphic IGFBP responses to GH. Additionally, HRT attenuated or prevented GH-mediated increases in IGF-I and IGFBP-3. Whether GH and/or sex steroid administration alters local tissue production of IGFBPs and whether the latter influence autocrine or paracrine actions of IGF-I remain to be determined.

So HRT (Testosterone Therapy) limits IGF-1 production???

Even with exogenous GH administration???

My IGF-1 is higher since I started TRT.

i think that they were saying in the absence of physio levels of test the igf response is greater.
