Does this make it absorb slower?Increase the injection volume per dose. It may help.
Like, instead of .2ml for 5iu, dilute it further to make it .4ml.

We therefore conclude that a large inj volume could imply a more rapid absorption as well as a larger bioavailability of sc inII GH

Im wondering cause I increased my dose recently but lowered to 1ml. Now im wondering if I should just stick to 2ml and inject more water. Im taking 2iu so it might not be huge difference too.

Sorry for the confusion. Im using 10iu vials so thats the total volume. Injection is either .2ml or .4ml for the 1ml or 2mlDon't ever inject anything subQ with 2ml.
There's a reason why that study shows faster absorption (and a higher peak) with 2ml. It's not obvious.
1ml max. .8ml is preferable as the limit.
But really, for 2iu, it's very doubtful you'd get a side effect inducing GH peak no matter how you administered it. Personally I wouldn't want less than .2ml for any dose just because it's pain in the ass to go lower than that and be accurate. .1ml per iu makes the math easy too. Easy unless you're using 36iu+ vials.
And ignore the study conclusion? Nope.Look at the numbers more carefully. Not the narrative. The numbers.
Quit taking it? Most people don't need growth they need discipline.Guys
Only using 5 units a day but get serious fluid retention lower legs. Thought it might dissipate after a while. Tried splitting dose didn't help. Appreciate advice on a possible solution.
AgreedHoly feck did I miss it or nobody mentioned what PEDs is he on....your pedantic nonsense, ghoul, about concentrations makes exactly zero difference to anyone or anything except maybe local inflammation after the shot....give it a break.
Again what stack ar you on?
deca is known to wreck people( does it to me too) when on GH you gain tons of weight in a couple of weeks and than it spills over and you get edema.
Something with the aldosterone that makes this happen
Anyway.....
All of this talk of the concentration and what of the HGH seems ridiculous.
Went from quoting pharma to fit the agenda, when realized serostim could use a higher concentration, now the reference point changes to "older pharma". i mixed 0.55ml per 12iu just fine
18iu per 0.5ml for Serostim lol.
doesnt geno use 36iu per ml?
OP Does your family have any blood flow issues? specifically to your legs?
how old are you? any history of heart issues?

The excipient formulation was developed to create a similar absorption rate to older, low concentration somatropin. No one knows what the excipients are in any particular batch of UGL.
The phosphates control PH at the injection site. which condition tissues to absorb at a consistant rate.
The mannitol draws water into the injection depot, slowing absorption.

-van der Laan et al., 1999 (Pharmaceutical Research)
Influence of excipients on subcutaneous injection depot and absorption kinetics of peptides.
“Formulations containing mannitol caused increased interstitial fluid accumulation at the injection site due to its osmotic properties, resulting in a larger depot volume. This enlargement leads to a slower release and prolonged absorption of the peptide.”
⸻
-Marxan et al., 2014 (Journal of Controlled Release)
Impact of formulation excipients on peptide drug absorption.
“Mannitol, as an osmotic agent, modulates the microenvironment by drawing water into the depot, thereby increasing local fluid volume and reducing the concentration gradient driving absorption. This results in a delayed absorption profile.”
⸻
Pfeiffer et al., 2012 (European Journal of Pharmaceutics and Biopharmaceutics)
Effect of excipients on subcutaneous injection site physiology and drug bioavailability.
“The presence of mannitol elevates osmotic pressure at the injection site, promoting water influx that dilutes the drug and expands the depot. This effect slows diffusion into systemic circulation and can extend the absorption phase of protein therapeutics.”
I honestly give 0 fucks what you have to say.
A lowlife drug dealer that put more money toward data collection for harm reduction than you ever have. You don't even match up to 1%I'm not posting it for you.
I don't judge myself by the opinion a low life drug dealer with weak opsec and an even weaker mind.
I gave you a hint. Next time read to comprehend.And ignore the study conclusion? Nope.
