When using exogenous gh the body will convert t4 to t3 at a faster rate so your t4 will most likely be low
You make absolutely no sense. You go to a doctor to find out why you have fatigue and then for some reason want to change up your routine which will effect your results and bring you closer to a conclusion why you have fatigue. Why even go to the doctor office to begin with? He/she will get a test that does not represent you and therefore is worthless. Save your money and don't even get the test done if you are going to change your routine for it and sew the results.
You kinda buried the lead on that part lol. But I get that it's not necessarily important for your question. As previously mentioned, if you will be using 4iu in perpetuity then stay on it for the blood panel. If you're ongoing dose is lower then I'd adjust it down for a week leading up the blood panel.Honestly, the fatigue is likely due to exposure to Epstein Barr virus (mononucleosis)... she is also testing for that since my spouse recently was diagnosed. I just didn't want to skew test results and have her ask questions.
Doesn’t using that dose of gh cause fatigue in a lot of people
My doctor wants to have my thyroid tested due to fatigue I've been experiencing for about 3 months. Will my HGH use affect the outcome of the testing in anyway? If so how long do I need to come off prior to having my blood draw?

Test for covid?
Ak
She had also mentioned the possibility of doing testosterone testing if thyroid comes back normal... would you recommend I get that tested too running my current 600mgs/week? Obviously not....

Does that doc know what you’re running? If not then you do realize that she’s going to get a bunch of screwy results because of the gear and whatever treatment she recommends is not going solve anything right?
Either that or it’s only going to be a band aid based on the results of the gear.
Or she will call you out on your use and tell you that is the reason for all your problems.
You need to come clean to her about what you’re using and if she isn’t down with it you need to find a doc that is. Your results are going to be worthless, unless you’re just trying to solve the problem while you’re on and that’s it, but then again if your doc doesn’t know you’re on gear she won’t look at it that way she’ll think you have some fucked up condition.
The way you’re going about it now will not get you anywhere and might get you fucked up even more.
The above is what I am trying to at as well. Aren't you trying to get better? Yes, stay on your 600mg/week and fess up to your doctor. If you cannot tell your doctor and trust they won't try to get you in trouble then you should see another doctor. Doctors are humans and some are just as cool as you and I and some are not. You won't fool your doctor, trust me. When a doctor sees people every 15-30 minutes for years they are very easily able to tell when an outlier comes in and their mannerisms are unlike the others; lies are easy to spot.
Also, I have Epstein barre syndrome. I would say I am chronically fatigued compared to everyone I know. Or I should say it comes and goes. It never effects my workouts or so I think, I mean I never miss workouts but sometimes am tired. When levels are elevated I seem to feel down, out and sick feeling with fatigue. Then it just goes away. Of course healthy lifestyle seems to fix it while living a life of excess increases it. Sucks but I don't really think about it as its just me.
