I'm 62 been working out for years. I'm thinking about using high for the anti aging benefits.
Any advise?

I really enjoy it. It is an investment like Grrl said. Not cheap and to get real benefits long term steady use is best. I take 1 iu 5 days on 2 days off. only in the am. I am 30 but I see a reduction in fine lines and I also noticed that I don't hold as much fat with the same dieting. Also keep in mind you will be pinning the same area frequently this can cause tenderness in the area as well as get old quickly. I have not run into this problem however and I have been on for 5 months
it is a long term investment ... you'd start at .5ius and possible work up to 2ius depending on what you experience as far as negative sides... I can't go over 1iu for very long without having to drop my dosage
Thanks so much for posting this, I searched a while and couldn't seem to find anything solid. My girl started a couple days ago and luckily this is almost exactly what I advised her.
My question is 2 parts... But Some background:
She's 30yr, healthy, in good shape, 5'4, 125-130 (DD's probably account for 10-15 of that, not trying to be vulgar, trying to give you an idea of body type). She has never taken anything before aside from some protein and multivitamins and is a nervous worrier about new things, especially things like this.
I started her at 0.5iu, and my plan was to keep her there for a few weeks and work up to 1 by small increments over another 2 weeks, then after a month or so at 1, depending on how she responds, adjust accordingly. Her goals are sleep, anti-aging (fine lines) and to aid in fat loss while retaining muscle, and overall well being.
Question 1: do you think this is a good plan, too low, too high, too short of a period between increasing dosage?
Question 2: Yesterday was only her third day at 0.5iu and she said she's been super tired and yesterday said she felt like her head was swelling. She's also coming off of a 2 week cold. I told her it's not impossible for it to be the GH, but that I've never heard of side effects showing within the first week except for very high doses, and that its probably half in her head (being nervous about it in the first place, and the "swelling" being in her head and not hands) and half her not getting much sleep over the past couple weeks. Am I being an asshole here or do you think 0.5iu could cause side effects in just 3 days??
I would have sent you a FR and PM but I thought any answers from you or others could be helpful to other users. If this is hijacking a thread and should be its own, I appologize and just let me know and I'll amend it. Still very new to how forums work.
I also appologize for the novel. Thanks in advance to anyone who may see this.
while the side effects are "possible" she is most likely experiencing placebo effect .. you can change the time she pins and see if that affects being sleepy .. and look at her hands .. are they puffy? or no?
your plan as outlined above seems very logical and reasonable no reason to deviate from it at this point
No, her hands are fine... That's what I thought.
I'll change the time for a couple days and monitor the situation, just to see if it helps her mentally. Thanks so much for your time!
I would have never guessed that a woman like you could not tolerate more than 1iu, while even small men are fine at 4ius. I suppose that you have more lean body mass than most men your height considering that your bones are lighter. In addition, women have normally twice as much gh in their blood. Very interesting.
hmm woman like me .. you mean big ? lol
Yes, big and strong, even though i did not see how you look.
So what happens to you over 1iu?
Do all the female bbers take such low doses?
I develop very bad carpal tunnel as well as pain in my hips and legs .. the standards where I am from are 2ius .. women don't need more than that
I would not have guessed. Thank you.
Edit: just saw this was posted in Ladies Lounge and didn't see that at first!
