HGH serum testing / IGF 1

[1bigmofo]

been reading a lot on gh serum testing and want to make sure i do it as close to perfect as possible so i can get the most accurate reading. 10 ius, 2.5 to 3.5 hours prior to blood draw, IM abdominal or shldr. one thing im curious about is if i do the IGF 1 test same blood draw i should get an accurate IGF # too? right...

My understanding and experience of close friends taking bloods is that igf1 levels won't peak till at least 2 weeks into taking gh. Other people say 4 weeks at steady, regular dose of gh. The gh itself has a short life span before being broken down hence the urgency to have test done in small window when it peaks in blood but hasn't started to decline. Igf lasts longer and builds up. If your wanting to test both serum and igf at the same blood draw what 2-4 weeks into usage to get accurate numbers
