Hey guys, so I have been on a health kick for 2 years now, and had lots of bloodwork done. I'm a uk guy so everything is slow here. I have found to have High TSH, High Cortisol, LOW IGF-1, High RT3.. I have been suspecting a growth hormone deficiency
I'm 30 years old, 5 foot 9, 138 pounds.. literally no muscle mass. Last time I bulked the fat just went straight to my belly, may of been high cortisol or low igf? The doctor ordered a pituatary MRI, but not sure that will show anything?
Would peptides be worth a try? I have low appetite and low muscle mass, anything that will increase both? The skin on my face is saggy too as there is literally no mass on my cheeks, crazy
never done any steroids, my t levels are fine
here are my results
Somatomedin-C ( IGF-1 ) - 14.2 [ 16.3 - 39.3 ]
TESTOSTERONE - 22.7 [ 7.6 - 31.4 ]
LH - 5.4 [ 1.7 - 8.6 ]
FSH - 4.7 [ 1.5 - 12.4 ]
SHBG - 55 [ 16 - 55 ] - Could be due to low IGF-1?
17-Beta OESTRADIOL - 49 [ 44 - 156 ]
PROLACTIN - 384 [ 86 - 324 ]
