So just for simplicity sake lets say at 45 y/o has a natty level of 100mcg/L of IGF and when using 5iu/day that number increases to 500mcg/L but a 30 y/o with a baseline of 200mcg/L @ 5iu a day tests at 600mcg/L. So dose + your baseline, which no doubt decreases with age, obviously will equal your total dosage. Now if exogenous use completely shuts us down than age would not be a factor however I just don't think it does but thats me. As for regimen I'm a firm believer there is one and only one regimen for GH use and that is ED use no 5 on 2 off, 6 on 1 off, etc. With all that being said its really just "bro-science" and personal experiences as there is very little actual scientific data available to give a properly informed answer. I do think the type of injury is a HUGE factor and as I said before the multi-level fusion is a very serious injury and HGH use can't hurt with recovery however I would not be in a rush to get back in the gym as that would make you more susceptible to the surgery being a failure.
something cool i learned from a really smart coach that works with one of the top sports docs in the county about gh is this. it's not so much that gh is going to cause natural shut down and all of that but since it causes significant insulin resistance it can create a climate ripe for becoming diabetic. those the do multiple pulses with high doses of gh through the day and those that do gh and slin together are very prone to getting it. i thought that was pretty interesting from a side effect point. i cant remember off the top of my head if it is listed on the insert for gh though
i am also a huge advocate of the 5 on 2 off use. over time your body will develop anti bodies to exogenous gh. why not slow down that process to a degree?
