I’ve done plenty of research on this before and I do fully understand what I’m doing with this journey.
I just fail to see how knowing natty vs levels on 4 IUs changes my course of action. It doesn’t change my IGF level knowing what my natty level was and I’m still in a healthy range that wouldn’t cause acromegaly. I’m taking all the precautions in terms of supplements to manage the risks and my questions are coming from a place of, gather as much data as you can because I can always learn from others.
Take these 2 scenarios:
1) I have natural low IGF and I take my 4 IUs to get me to the high end
2) I was already on the high end, I take the 4 IUs and it only takes me slightly higher.
With both scenarios, I would still be willing to take exogenous HGH because there are benefits beyond IGF alone, and I’m still getting an increase either way.
Not trying to go round in circles, but I everyone’s said to get a test for natural level but hasn’t stated specifically what change that would result in. I completely agree and back knowing natural levels regardless but that’s purely from an awareness standpoint, not a “I know my natural level, this is it how it changes my actions going forward”
