Thread: Correct blood test for HGH baseline????

Ok, so I have made the decision to start HGH. I’m in my 40’s and I am looking for the fountain of youth! Lol, well anyway... I was hoping you guys could tell me which blood test to get done to get my baseline. I will be using private medlabs. And a refresher on the protocol would be helpful too. I read through the archives but it didn’t jump out at me. I probably missed it I am sure. Thanks in advance!

I would get a complete male hormone panel if you can afford it, at the very minimum check your igf-1 and test lvls.

Here is BoP GH protocol.. in a nutshell:

Inject 10iu GH intramuscularly 3 hrs prior to pulling bloods..
we usually go off the GH serum test..
but also add IGF-1 to the test as well...

if you can afford it.. also check your CbC and thyroid panels..

For sure add igf to panel..if you cant afford it you probably shouldnt be running gh. You need a baseline, some people dont respond well to gh and the cost ratio isnt worth it for the small increases in igf they get. A serum test after a 10iu inject will basically only test to make sure your gh is legit or not and give you some wicked CTS for a day.

What’s your favorite GH that you have ran? Personally I like Omnitope but it’s $$$, am curious as to generics you like.
