Weird side effect while on growth hormone

Hello! I started gh 9 days ago and I started off for a week at 2 iu's and then upped it to 3iu's. I didn't take my shot yesterday and I think I will take a break today also and see if this one weird side effect would diminish.I have bad erection problems which started a couple days into my gh cycle. Can get erect but it takes a lot longer and won't stay very hard unless stimulated.

Im only 20 years old and the reason im using hgh is that I am getting it for free from a friend since he has so much extra so I figured why not since it has a multitude of benefits and my training background and knowledge are allright to make use of it. I have studied all the effects and such and just dont seem to find any reference to getting this dysfunction from it. What could be the cause? I am already on alpha blockers and sildenafil since I have a muscle condition in my pelvis that doesnt allow good blood flow. Those suddenly stopped working very well when I got on gh. With those I could get awesome erections which woudn't go down easily at all. As soon as gh started my erections started to diminish greatly in quality. How could they be interacting? I also suspected high prolactin from the gh binding to the prolactin receptors since I got a sore nipple even from d aspartic acid. No such symptoms as of yet on gh though! Supplements im taking are vitamins, whey isolate and AAKG. I dropped the AAKG though since I read it could raise prolactin so maybe it's a double whammy with the gh that's messing me up?

I would appreciate any help I can get, Its hard to deal with this problem at this age and I would like to use hgh since it could even heal my muscle problem but I seemingly get severe limp willy from legit gh! (Confirmed legit so there is no worry it's something else)

Sounds fishy. Gh is EXTREMELY expensive. And i dont know 1 single person that would give it away.

Just sit tight buddy, i guarantee a **** ton of ppl are gonna chime in on this and maybe 1 can answer your question???

Thank you so much for the reply you made me feel a lot better already :D. And yeah it would sound fishy but i've known the guy for 5 years and he is my most trustworthy friend and he also takes it himself so we made a deal that we would split his stash in half :)

Im also trying to see if it can heal the muscle condition in the pelvic floor. And the other benefits are nice too ofc. Can you show me exactly why I should stop regarding to my health? That statement isn't quite enough to convince me.

You won't really see much benefit from 2-3iu with 0 other drugs. Kinda almost a total waste... but if its free.... I'd rather just sell it. Not sure why it could be causing erection issues. GH can cause water retention... could that be aggravating your pelvic floor issue?

Yeah but the plan was/is to raise it to 5iu and couple it with some igf-1 in a few weeks. I won't use anything that shuts my testosterone down. And regarding to water retention aggravating my pelvic issue, I think that's very possible and highly likely since i've been feeling much more congested down there now. Weird thing is at the beginning it seemed to help with my issue and the severe pain im in every day! Do you have any tips to reduce the water retention? I'm already combatting the prolactin side of things with 100mg of p5p a day so I will see after a couple days if that was it.

Must be a really good friend if you're getting GH. I haven't used it, and I'm a nice guy and all, but I don't think that's how I'd roll lol.

Also going to second the whole being 20 and no reason to mess around with it.

But is there any specific reason not to be messing with it? From what I understand it doesn't shut you down or if it does the recovery is quick.

Dandelion root works well and is a very mild diuretic.

You're just not going to get significant results even at 5iu a day with igf-1 (which most on the market is bunk/garbage) with any sort of anabolic... gh is very underwhelming for performance enhancement.

Yeah I know but im mainly taking it for fat loss while keeping my calories reasonably high up. Also I noticed awesome pumps and feeling pumped 24/7 when on growth. Must be good growth since 2iu does this to me??

If it's pharma because your friend was prescribed it of course. But even cheap growth is really too expensive to give away for free.

Thought I replied to your post... I was thinking of it, and my goodness no, you didn't disrespect anyone. Just having a bit of fun my man. It doesn't cover the undertone of concern for your age and what you are embarking on, to wit, I see as a negative for your future growth. (no pun, srs)

Good luck to you!

You are only 20 years old so gh supplemtation is the last thing you need; you would have to take like 10iu/day to have any impact because your levels are so high now already. I would drop that immediately--free or not, it is not needed. As far as the prolactin, you can try cabaser or bromocriptine; however, just pick up some vitamin B6 and take everyday. Do a quick Google search on it and you will find dosing protocols to lower prolactin.

I've decided to quit the gh for good. Took another 2iu shot yesterday and the same problems returned with a vengeance... Had been off for 3 days and things were almost back to normal. And regarding to my age I think you're right I don't need it. Just figured it would also somewhat shield me from overtraining since that's what I have already once recovered from. Igf-1 though I think that would better suit my age as I don't want to touch steroids quite yet.

Yeah that is a good move. I know it sounds cliche and I was like you when I was 20, but your hormone levels are at their highest right now, so just eat right, train hard, and try to heal up that injury. Wait as long as you can to take any exogenous test and hgh. I am not familiar with your injury, but the alpha blockers will definitely cause ED so maybe the cialis is not dosed high enough. I would do whatever takes if it is even possible, to get off of those.
I still don't think the HGH would cause this especially if it is pharma hgh, either way since that is the newest thing introduced to your regimen, it should be discontinued to see if there is an improvement.

Oh yeah, I saw you were taking 100mg of p5p so you have the B6 angle taken care of.

The type of alpha blockers and the dosage I have don't cause ed they actually help it at least for me. And there is a definite improvement instantly when I didnt take the hgh it returned things almost to normal in a few days and yesterday when I took it it happened again, couldnt get it up. I think its water retention in the pelvic floor or something...

Personally unless you're looking to be high level in a sport or are already at a solidly advanced point I wouldn't even look into anything hormonal. igf-1 is either bunk/not worth the time. Literally legit igf is like gold-- ifbb pros can't even get good stuff a lot of the time. It's a pretty fragile peptide and very expensive. You could look into some gh secretogogues and the like stacked with huperzine and some natural anabolics if you really want a boost but until you have diet/exercise/etc all on point I just wouldn't go too into it.

Yeah I've read that about igf-1 but I might be able to get it legit, Im not sure yet. How do the hgh secretagogues compare to actual gh and what natural anabolics do you mean particularly? Thanks :)

This is very possible. And I never would have thought of it either.

epicatechin, laxogenin, arimistane, tribulus aquaticus, laxogenin, numerous others. You'll find a lot of good reviews on various products on this board. If you're getting legit igf-1 I can assure you you are not at the level where the price would justify it... unless you're an ifbb pro or just filthy rich. The gh secretogogues are very solid, imo. Great results and can have some very solid effects. "poor man's gh" I've heard friends compare it to being on a few iu of gh.

Yeah Im fairly sure that's what it is since it feels physically a lot different down there after yesterdays final shot. If it was just hormones like prolactin I think I would know

Not necessarily prolactin ED is actually very hard to detect.

But like my dick looks and feels physically much more constricted than it already is. That's why I think it's the water retention. Funny thing is though that my libido is also 0 right now and needing manual stimulation or porn to get it up even on a small dose of viagra. Last time same happened on gh and 3 days a break and poof it was all good again! Maybe my brain percieves I can't get physically easily erect so it limits my libido? I don't know what is going on but gh ain't for me lol :D
