I’m 55 and have a question about HGH
I have age related enlarged prostate , nothing major . I am interested in doing about 2 iu per day , I’ve googled it and some references say it will enlarge your prostate other say it won’t anyone have experience with this ?
I’m not looking to gain muscle size I’m doing it more just as a general feel good and to have a youthful appearance .
I work out regularly and have about 15% body fat
Any advice is appreciated , thank you

This is a great question. My guess is at 2iu likely not, but that's a guess and of course individual dependant.

Following, hoping one of the gh vets can chime in here and help you out

1-2 IU at your age should just take you back to your regular HGH when you were in your 20's. I have never heard of GH impacting your prostate and I'm not as old as you but I'm not young. Ran GH for 6 - 12 months many times and never had an issue.
Are you buying prescription HGH or generic? If your buying generic, you are rolling the dice - at least that is my opinion. I'm sure there are better generics from two sources I can think of but if you can afford it buy a prescription product that lasts a while without being cooled. Sero can be kept at room temp for a specific amount of time, believe it is 30 days, according to the insert but it has been a while since I read one so I may have the dates wrong.

Good luck.

I am not an HGH expert. However, I am 62.

Last year I tried Peptides CJC 1295 and Ipamorelin for 8 months straight. This year I ran Opti HGH (a UGL brand) from Nov to Friday just past.

It did everything it is supposed to. It improved some injuries significantly, I was more alert, and added muscle more easily. Lost fat more quickly etc... I ran 2 IU almost the whole time. I went up to 6 IU daily during a bulk phase of about 12 weeks but the fatigue was to much and dropped back to 2IU.

The down fall in my case with both Pep`s and GH was interference with my thyroid gland and it worsened my Hypothyroidism.

I urge you to just be certain to gather enough info to keep your hormones balanced. I am subsequently learning to do so before I continue. I have enough on hand for another 6 months.

None of this may happen in your case. Just be aware of all the affects it might have both negative and positive. There are a few fellas on here who have helped me with this and without them I would have floundered.

Good luck and damn the torpedoes', ramming speed etc..... There is no dipping your toe in test the water.

I wonder if taking T4 while using the GH would have mitigated that

Subsequently, I have added T3. My BW shows a huge amount of T4 and T3 floating about in my system but I am not converting T3. I am now adding extra T3 and will go for 2 weeks on my current regimen and do more BW. My T4 reads fine. Its not how it usually goes with folks but here we are.. Everyone's response can differ somewhat.
 
The whole thing with GH is it apparently pushes your T4 to convert to T3, the upregulation in the T3, because of that we need to be supplemented with T4 “apparently”
 
Your welcome! I hope my experience can help you look at this objectively. I also wanted the therapeutic value of it. I boosted it during part of my bulk and yes I gained easily. Opti and fatigue seem to be synonymous with each other if what others say is true. Certainly has been in my case.

I like them and will continue but have to lower the amount.

I am using T3 25mcg am and 12.5 3 pm. No T4 at all! My thyroid is using available T4 fine. There is another possible condition at play. The Endo will sort that out. I have improved pretty dramatically in a few days.


I have read all the info on GH I could. I made an informed decision to start. As usual, I went in deep to really find out how its works on me.

Now I want to find balance.

Sero stands for Serostim which is a brand mostly used in Aids patients albeit it is very sumilar to a geno or huma. It is my second favorite HGH.

What would be your top three and do you have any UGL’s that you would recommend ?

Geno, Sero, and Huma are my favorite in that order but any one of the three would be fine. I don't use and will never use generic HGH from an UGL. There are two that have good reputations but the sides are considerably more pronounced than script on the same dose according to all the guys I know who used them. Each to your own - try generic if you like and if it works for you great but that is one product I won't roll the dice on.

Are you not on daily 5mg cialis? There is a lot of research showing it is very effective in reducing prostate size. Plus I know it works first hand, some steroids increase prostate size and taking cialis helps me.
