Did I get Fake HGH?

I bought HGH from HYB and recieved it at the start of June (around the 10th) And was running 6ius daily, pinning before bed. Only problem is I didn't notice anything, no increase in quality of sleep, no water retention increase, no carpel tunnel in my hands, and definitely no growth, I know the best way to tell is to get a blood test, which I did, however I got a blood test on my growth hormone levels and not IGF-1 as I didn't know I should do IGF-1 at the time, so I cant really say for sure but I pinned the night before and then also pinned 4ius right before the test which I did at 8am and my hgh levels came back at 1.6 which I think is barely above natural. Basically im just wondering if there's any other side effects I should look for to tell if the hgh I get is real or not, or what blood test I should get? I ran out of all the hgh I got from HYB which was 200ius however I bought more from Lobster so Im hoping this batch is more useful. Not trynna say HYB is bad, I may have gotten a bad batch or something but just wondering if anyone else has experienced the same.

That is not how you are supposed to do a blood test for HGH. The general protocol is you pin 10 iu Intramuscular about 2 hours before the test and then get a GH specific blood test and look at the number. That will give you a much accurate measure and has been basically the "brostandard" on the boards for a while

Oh ok, so would you recommend getting an IGF-1 blood test since the half life of HGH is short, or should I just do a regular Human Growth Hormone blood test since I'd be injecting it intramuscular to increases the half life? I normally do SubQ which I think is the same as intramuscular but im not sure, thanks.

IGF test will just tell you how well you are converting HGH to IGF if your not controlling all factors (i.e. e2) kind of pointless just HGH test will tell you If its real, typically process is

10iu GH,3h subq or 2h IM before blood test
 
My experience with GH:

I’ve tried GH both intramuscularly and subcutaneously and honestly, it made a noticeable difference (especially while I was in a calorie deficit). Recovery felt way smoother. My legs bounced back much faster after cardio, and I didn’t get that usual buildup of fatigue that normally creeps in during a cut.

When I injected it IM before a workout, I felt fuller and got much better pumps in the gym ( you will clearly notice it). I didn’t bother with blood tests, I could just tell it was working. The effects were obvious to me.

personally I couldn't tell a difference, I think maybe a tiny bit more water when I did IM but other than that for me both feel same, I know there is information to indicate IM should be better
 
Hyb and ssa sell the same capsules for peptides, I don't know, just inject 10 IU or more at once and check if there is any water retention or anything else?
 
You’re new here and haven’t been on since you posted this, but you can’t really just be going around saying HYB or any source is bad without significant proof. Just sayin.
That's true, I'm not really trynna say that their bad but I don't seem to be the only one as I looked through their thread and seemed like other were experiencing the same thing as me where they weren't getting side effects or noticing growth, just wanted to get other opinions on it and see where I should go from there, like I said I kinda messed up the blood test and I dont have any more HGH from HYB so cant confirm anything and I was simply speculating.

Were you off HGH for any period of time prior to starting this batch that you think is suspect? Or did you just go from one batch to the next at the same dosage? I would not expect you to see any CTS side effects if you did not have some time off HGH prior to resuming (especially at 6 iu).

The IGF-1 isn't terribly useful unless you have a prior test while on the same amount of Gear / same levels of E2, same dose of HGH from a different batch / vendor. Also, some guys just don't ever get high serum IGF-1 levels (and that's fine because that's not the whole point). Paul over at Anabolic Bodybuilding has spoken several times about taking his dosage over 9 iu daily with no change in IGF-1 levels. Kurt Havens also ran high dosages of Serostim with no real change in serum IGF-1 levels. And, individuals with a pituitary tumor may have very high serum levels of IGF-1 and no anabolism / HGH benefits to speak of.

It was actually my first time ever using HGH in general or any peptide/steroid as a whole so I was expecting at least something, also since I stopped using the HGH from HYB and started using the one from lobster my sleep quality has gotten a significant amount better, but only been on it for a week and some change so I havent noticed anything else. Also what is the relation between E2 and HGH? My E2 is low so how would that affect how I respond to HGH?
 
Why would you expect to grow on just HGH?
I mean its literally called growth hormone for a reason but your not wrong, I wasnt exactly expecting to grow pecs the size of angela white but I was expecting to at least see some sort of side effects, wasnt even really looking for a lot of growth just wanted to make sure I was taking the real stuff, and its also my first time using anything as a whole wether that be peptides or roids so going from natty to 6ius of HGH I was expecting to see something.

Just cuz growth is in the name doesn’t mean it’s going to give you growth, you need high doses of HGH to even get muscle hyperplasia. Creation of new muscle cells.

At normal doses sub 4-6iu potentially. you’re mainly seeing better recovery, fat loss, better hair skin nails, energy, libido, lack of fatigue in gym.
Not much noticeable muscle growth imo

you dont want to get side effects of hgh, the goal is to take it and feel nothing.

hgh is long game it takes a long time to even notice any real growth on it.

if you're that bored while testing your new product out you can count how many ass hairs you grow out tho

You have no idea what you are doing. You need to stop and learn.

You haven't' got a clue of how HGH works or even what it is.

Using HGH without testosterone is a joke. At best it's an anti-aging compound when used alone. Really.... HGH on its own is a treatment for tissue wasting diseases. It's only prescribed use as a monotherapy in adults is for AIDS patients.

If you aren't an AIDS patient, using HGH as a monotherapy is dumb as fuck.

Step 1. Find where you are on the age / igf chart I attached. If you are under 25, throw it away. You are already making more than you could inject.

Step 2. Get your all of your baseline bloodwork done, including IGF, estrogen and testosterone.

3. HGH requires estrogen to convert into IGF. If you have low (under 40) estrogen, use testosterone to increase your estrogen to convert the HGH into IGF

4. This isn't everything. You need to take the time and learn what the fuck you are doing.
