I was wondering if anyone knew any doctors in Canada or online

Canadian doctors who are willing to prescribe GH replacement

therapy. Im having trouble finding an endo who is willing to test my

IGF-1 levels and I greatly suspect that my GH levels are close to

nothing. The reason I suspect this is because I have all the major

signs of growth hormone deficiency and my bone density is very

small. Does anyone have any experience with this and is on

replacement GH? Any feedback is appreciated.

My igf-1 level was 140 range 90-360

A 24 year old males range is 182-780

I started on 1iu a day and had very good results, i ran at 1-2iu a day for a few

months and

ended with 6iu a day for a week.

Went off for a month and just started a few days ago on 2iu a day.

It did help a great deal.

You can get it from many on-line anti-aging web sites and there is even a buyers

club.

The cost can be from 7-12 $ a iu. If you get it as rx and have your insurance

pay for it,

well that would be great. There are some who go for the once a month IM depot of

HGH.

There is also a product called p-gh or p-igf, these tend to be " research chems "

and can be

had for little money. Some people report good results and others no results.

The cheapest ways to improve igf-1 levels are:

1. REM sleep

2. REM sleep in complete darkness.

3. Direct first early morning sunlight.

4. Protein the good stuff like egg or whey

5. 5-htp or l-tryptophan

If your pituitary is damaged... and the cells that

secrete GH are damaged-- all the exercise in the world

WILL NOT allow secretion of GH because the brain is

damaged.

some people with pituitary caused hypothyroidism will

also have GHD because the cells in the pituitary are

extra extra sensitive to GH damage.

the only way to know if you are low and cant make it

on your own- even with exercise-- is for an endo to

run a IGF-1 level and then a 2 hour GH stimulation

test with a provoking agent.

to learn a lot more and get the medical guidelines--

one can visit hgfound.org

and sign up for the adult GH support list.

my IGF-1 levels are to the floor too. This is why i was asking. Yet I have so

many low metabolic energy complaints that look like low thyroid yet my TSH is

1.99 and FRee levels in the middle range. Yet cold and tired and dragged out all

the time. How do I find out why its low?

hi

i dont come on here often... busy and such

so read the last message i sent-- most of the info you

need

go to hgfound.org and sign up for adult internet list

my IGF-1 was like 43.... low low low for a young

person in 30's.(NORMAL 114-492)

after replacing GH injections... my IGF-1 back up to

normal range and i couldnt feel better!

one might need a higher dose of T4 with GH as

metabolsim speeds up and the acceleration of T4

metabolsim

my free T4 was low at 0.6

i replaced iodine from KELP and l-tyrosine and i

brought my levels back up to normal.... so i dont have

to take thyroid medication

but please research about GH and only find a competent

endo that knows about adult GH defciency!

If your pituitary is damaged... and the cells that

  secrete GH are damaged-- all the exercise in the

world

  WILL NOT allow secretion of GH because the brain is

  damaged.

  some people with pituitary caused hypothyroidism

will

  also have GHD because the cells in the pituitary are

  extra extra sensitive to GH damage.

  the only way to know if you are low and cant make it
