Lab Results are Back After 4 Months of Peptides

[PigsOnTheWing]

31 year-old male here who has been doing nightly injections of Sermorelin/GHRP-6/GHRP-2 for the past 4 months. Got the peptides from my local, well-respected anti-aging clinic. My IGF-1 levels were at 106 when I started and after 4 months rose to only 134 (normal lab range for my clinic is 137-307).

Overall I am pretty disappointed with these results. I know that Sermorelin isn't as good as Mod GRF and that I was only injecting once a day, but still, I expected my IGF levels to be a lot higher than this. My friend used CJC-1295 for only a month and his IGF levels were well into the 300's (not sure what his starting baseline was though).

Is it normal for IGF to increase only this much in 4 months considering my protocol or is my body just responding poorly to these drugs? Should I give them more time or am I wasting my money?

That is a terrible protocol. Once a day dosing isn't going to do much. It's not enough to significantly increase igf levels. Start off by injecting 3x a day. AM, preworkout, and prebed. Don't be afraid of carbs either because your body isn't going to convert as much igf without carbs and slin. Then get tested after following that for a few weeks.

In addition to rambo's post, your 1x per day injections aren't going to raise your systemic igf, that's going to give you a large spike post injection. Therefore the timing of your injection and tests plays a large factor.

Good observation brother!!

The only items that should increase your systematic igf are mk677 and cjc with dac.

That dosing protocol was poorly planned and or researched. I would reccomend more research before you use peptides again.

It's no wonder, that protocol is no good dude!

Thanks for the help everyone.

I'm not using peps for bodybuilding just antiaging for the moment. I was diagnosed with hashimotos/hypothyroidism 6 months ago but have still had significant fatigue despite normal TSH/T4/T3 levels. I went to an antiaging clinic 4 months ago and they gave me the peptides and HCG for the fatigue. I have low T and will probably start TRT soon as the HCG is not really working (still want to have kids so started with HCG monotherapy first to see if it would help).

Is it worth running peps if I'm just injecting once a day? Are the antiaging effects of 1x a day injections comparable to 1-2 iu's of real HGH?

No, far from it, why don't you just run GH at 1-2iu a day?

Sounds like you need a better clininc...

What are they giving you for your thyroid more imporantly?

If I could get legit pharma grade GH I would.

Yeah, maybe I should find a new clinic. My primary care doctor and not the anti-aging clinic is handling my thyroid meds. I was on 75mcg of Synthroid for 6 months but they recently put me on 60 mg of Armour since I'm still having symptoms.

Each injection = a gh pulse.
1 exo pulse ain't gonna do much.

I used to pin 5-6x ed 3 hours apart of ghrp2 while taking up to 10mg cjc-dac a week.

You want results? Gotta be a pin cushion, voodoo doll.
