1 iu of gh, I would try t4 first, used t4 and GH a long while back and was pleased, I can't remember where and why I used t4 over t3 but my skin felt amazing and I looked noticably younger after 3 months could have been placebo effect who knows. Hope this helps

thanks that does help. im familiar with dosages for t3 for females. what is a decent dose of t4 for a female?

I would use T3. People take t4 hoping it will convert to T3 in their systems. If you can get the T3, t hen id say use it.

You probably used T4 over T3 because GH lowers natural T4 production.


T4 really is useless for most people. Takes a minimum of 4-6 wks to build up in the system, and you'll generally have a sky high T4 level with a moderate T3 level once it starts converting. High T4 levels can cause a lot of undesirable side effects.

T3 isn't a miracle drug either. Potential to be extremely catabolic especially for women since its much harder to build muscle. If she's a typical cardio bunny and not eating a lot, T3 without AAS will burn fat AND muscle. Not to mention it just doesn't work well for some people. I've been on almost 100mcg daily and had no fat loss, and only undesirable sides like excessive sweating, severe weakness, and heart palpitations. It was a legit script too so no fakes.
