Well if you're having to choose..test. you dont want hgh alone given there has to be higher balance in the axis for the body to use the hgh. I wont mentiion who but recently there was a member complaing about fake hgh. As it turned out he was using as much as 6-8 iu's a day with no results or sides and nothing. Others including myself were using the same supplier with great results. Some having carpal signs etc only using. 2 or 3 iu's. All of those using it with test had results and the one person using it without had none. You have to know the chain reactions that occur in the hormone loop to use anything and lots of research will get you there. I know most of us, myself included, just played copycat as we began ...in my case years ago it was a "throw a bunch of shit at the wall and see what sticks" mentallity. Thats ki nda what I see everyday here in some cases and you really need to know whats happening in your body so you know why things are going wrong as they do for all of us. Learning your bodies own responses to compounds takes time but you simply have to follow protocols that have shown to be productive in the loop and do the other things necessary to make sure they work. Much of it is tricking your brain because it is constantly wanting to return the loop back to what it believes to be normal. Balance in the loop is the best way to trick it given it is more likely to accept and not fight what you are doing if balance ccurs even at a higher level of balance..its still balance....point is, you have to bala nce the axis in test and hgh or it wont work. The axis is between test and growth...so if your body puts out a little extra test the brain will do one of 2 things; it will produce enough extra growth to meet the balance or it will discard the extra test. Those are the only 2 iptions it has. So when use several iu's of hgh what are its options? Balance or discard....make sure you make the balance happen or guess what?
