Why does it make you so sleepy?

ad

I always get really tired after taking GH and that is why I don't like taking it in the morning. From reading, I guess the morning is the best time to take your GH dose. Why does it make me so sleepy? I know the body releases the majority of it during sleep. So, would it be mimicking some of the bodies reactions during deep sleep? What ways do you guys deal with the sleepiness from GH?

i know this is somewhat of a old post but i just started HGH and i take 2 iu's in morning and 2 iu's at nite, during tha am hrs i feel lethargic and sleepy. from what i've been reading i guess this is a good sign that the HGH is working

Hgh lowers your blood sugar which will make you tired from that

I take it like 4 hours before bed and sleep fine. In the AM knocks me out. How many IUs are you taking?

Some reasons for lethargy may be thryoid levels and blood sugar. Also different brands make some people feel more/less tired

I worked my way up to 5iu daily and I also take it before bed. I get so drowsy if I take it in the morning, but I guess it is better to do so, since you will be getting your normal dose of GH at night and the synthetic dose in the morning, in theory.
