Post up your Natty IGF-1 Level

You want to wait until 6 weeks of GH use to get a proper new reading.

I know, ive done months and years of HGH usage + testing

That post was not for you.

I have a value of 217 ug/l (somatomedin) and I am 50 years old. Is that a bad or good value?

im not sure if its good or not but i have 216 and im 27.

there is a chart of igf numbers and correlation of age, ,

Not to throw a wrench in the works but my 500+ IGF-1 (2.7iu GH) was on 15mg of TZ, with an insulin over 20. Not sure what conclusions to draw from that. I'm Starting Berberine 500mg with each meal and will retest in 30 days.

Upper the GH to 4iu and threw in 500mg berberine 2x per day. IGF-1 didnt move at 558. Seems like I've found the peak IGF-1 number. Fasting insulin came down from 20 to 18 which is still higher than I'd like.

this is just an "example" of what im talking about,,

If that is natural, that is an excellent number.

Are you sure? For my value the unit is not ng/ml but ug/l. Is that the same?

I'd love to tell you it was something I was doing but I'm as surprised as everyone else. Natty number was over 225 so i had a good starting point.

Absolutely.

Absolut.

mmhhh... for my age my IGF-1 value is at the upper limit. How come? I don't inject HGH. That means I don't need to inject as much if I want to double the value.

Unfortunately its not that simple.

Warum?

It is a range. Some are low, most are around the middle, some are high. You are one of the lucky ones at the extreme high end.

Unlikely you'll double the value even though your values are already high without hgh, You could most definitely up those values higher of course , you are blessed with a high count ,,
