Guest guest Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 HGH can break the bank for many. It's like $300 for a one month supply. Great stuff, and a staple in most Anti-Aging doctor's treatment regimens. _____ From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of Taddeo Tatsulok Sent: Tuesday, March 21, 2006 10:57 AM Subject: HGH or Somatropin (Re: test cypionate syringe size) Phil, It's HGH (Human Growth Hormone or Somatropin), not HCG, that I inject myself in the belly everyday with insulin syringes (though I also use HCG every once in a while). HGH therapy an entirely different ball game but with fewer side effect problems. I have been on HGH long before I got on TRT and it is 5 to 10 times more expensive than HCG or T.

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 My IGF-1 test done 5 months ago was low normal 138 range 71 to 290 my Dr. felt that is was OK. But most Anti-Ageing Dr.'s will put one on HGH if this test is below 300. I have low T and a low immune system because I worked with chemicals when I was a toolmaker trying to develop a plastic to use to stamp out steel panels in a Die. I never put my bare hands in any of the plastic like my co-workers did. Now some 25 yrs later I am the only one left alive. I get everything that goes around every winter. I just got over having bronchitis for 3 months this last winter get it every yr. for months. I here that taking HGH will help build up my immune system. My Dr. is going to check me again next month. And I hope will put me on HGH. I get my meds though my drug plain with MedcoHealth and they told me my plain pays for HGH the med is called Humatrope. Did being on HGH help with your immune system.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 does anyone have info on ranges for IGF-1 scale? i'm in the lower 1/3 of the range...is that a big deal? i have low T (460 at 7am) with a LH of 4. im looking to try HCG treatment for secondary hypogonadism as every blood test i've had since May '05 suggests it. i wish i had a specialist referral made instead of waiting 4 months to get into the Endo's office. anway, endo did check IGF-1 and it came back lower 1/3 of range...he said it was normal. is it in fact normal? i don't want HGH if not needed. philip georgian <pmgamer18@...> wrote: I get a flu and pneumonia shot every yr. but I still get dam sick every winter.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 I was told by Dr. that any one lower then 300 Anti-Ageing Dr.'s would put you on HGH.

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Taddeo, I see that you recommend the HGH. Do you think it can do the same thing HCG does for the testicles? I started TRT injections last week per my endocrinologist. However, I changed my primary care doctor to an antiaging doctor, and I see him tomorrow. My last lab my IGF-1 was below the normal range. The endocrinologist wants to wait to fix that until the T is normal. Should I ask the antiaging doctor for it? After reading a lot of the posts here, I think the anti aging doc will be the one I want to manage my TRT, HGH, etc. Endocrinologist are hard to get in to see, and don't seem to be up on all of this stuff. Seems like they are good at managing diabetes and thats about it. Thanks Taddeo Tatsulok <taddeo_t@...> wrote: The pioneer anti-aging users in the 90s spent in the thousands of dollars per month. Nowadays there are more sources of the stuff and you can expect to spend anywhere from $100 to $500 depending on your source and usage. When I started two years ago, the only source that I knew was Costco and it cost me $225 for a vial of 15 IU Saizen (made by Serono, the makers of Profasi HCG) or $15/IU. My cost today had gone down considerably to $4.80/IU. I inject 1.2 IU 6 days/week and that translates to about $150/mo. With a bit of luck and resourcefulness, I might be able to bring it down to $3.00/IU or roughly $100/mo. > > > > I ha ve just switched from 7.5g testim/day to test cyp injections. > > > > After reading this site and Dr. 's, will be doing .5cc or > > > > 100ml/week from a 200mg/ml vial.

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 What the heck if IGF-1 test? I have seen it before but still don't know what that is. Phil I guess you will listen to your doctor a little more now won't you? Sorry to hear that you got off track. I know how long it takes to get there. You told me just get the T up there and check the E2 level, I did and mine was too high so now Tuesday I will find out more on where I stand. I had a dream about you the other night and you told me I was being too critical of you. I hope you don't think that is the case. You have helped me out a lot and I appreciate it very much.

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 IGF-1 is a Insulin-Like GR FAC 1 test to check growth hormone level. Here is a link full of links.

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Phil, My IGF-1 level came back at 180. I thought I read somewhere the anit ageing dr's will prescribe if it is under 300. The doctor I go to used HGH himself, he said it helped him get rid of his belly fat. He is in his 60's and has about 10 times more energy than I do (age 49). I mentioned HGH to him before and he said he would but not until I got my E2 level down.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Thanks! Taddeo Tatsulok <taddeo_t@...> wrote: , Will HGH do the same thing HCG does for your testicles? The answer is no. As I have said, HGH Therapy is an entirely different ball game. It will be too long to explain here the role of HGH in the human body, who needs supplementation and what the benefits are. So please just do a Google or search and you will get thousands of hits. You will notice that all are mouthing the same benefits but there is just one caveat. Any HGH that is not injectable is snake oil. These hoodwinkers marketing non-onjectable HGH are just riding on the success of the injectable HGH bandwagon.
