First Test cycle, thinking of adding in HGH?
Hi all, new here and looking for some advice. I'm 48, been active weight lifting, mtn biking, dirt bikes, kayaking, etc for most my adult life until the last couple, 2/3 years. Have had a few significant injuries and nagging shoulder pain for more than a decade (2 surgeries). Anyhow, been wanting to try HGH for a long time but just never did as I figured it may help me recover / heal. So my brother did a test cycle year or so ago and after researching, decided to do one myself, that has since turned into less of a cycle and more of a TRT dose. Not knowing how I might react / what to expect, decided I'd start around 200 - 250 / week and see how that goes. My short-term goal right is just to get re-energized / motivated / boost sex drive and get fit, not really "get big".
So, when I ordered test (c) I also order some Hygetropin. Again, plan to start out at 2iu daily. I know hgh takes longer to take effect, but wondering if I should start that now or wait a while until after I "feel out" the test? Or will it take long enough that I'll be able to tell what is doing what?
Thanks for any advice.

have you gone to a doctor and pulled bloods to see where all your levels are at

I knew that question was coming. I have not and know I should. I've only taken the 1st shot of week 1 on Saturday morning, was planning on 2nd tonight. Think it'll be fine for me to go ahead and do it now, as in today? I haven't had anything but diet mt dew this am for my caffeine. If not, when would be the best time considering I take a shot tonight? Thanks much.

You should try to get labs taken prior to taking any exogenous testosterone.

Yeah I know that now, but I already started. That said, I've only taken 2 doses thus far, last one being Tuesday night. So I was thinking I may go get bloodwork tomorrow am and at least see where it's at right now. I suppose that's better than nothing, eh?

Are you just getting lab work done? Or seeing a doctor? If you are seeing a doctor and they are prescribing the labs make sure to be honest with your doctor because your labs are going to be skewed.
As long as you are up front with your dosage to your provider that is fine. Or if you are self administering your TRT then it will give you a starting level to adjust your dosage to where you would like your levels to be.
