PCT $225 - Ora or Hexatropin?

I have enough to buy 2 kits (1 month) oratropin or 3 months of Hexatropin. The purpose is PCT but if I would find better eventual results from 3 months of Hexatropin use over 1 month of Oratropin I would obviously go that route.

Can anybody offer an opinion on which would be more useful for my purposes?

A huge thank you in advance to anyone able to help!

What kind of body type do you have, ecto, meso or endo?

Ecto
6'2 200 pounds
11%bf
but i have to eat huge to stay anywhere near there
i am also nearing completion of an ergomax cycle, my second, and hope to remain as close to 200 in the short term as possible with an eye toward building above that mark in the coming months.

other than the tropin possibilities, my PCT is well planned out and I have all supplies in my possession. Adding ora or hexatropin is the only question that remains

I'd go with the Hex for sure.

thanks guys.
you recommend hex because it has more long term potential I take it?
or is it the cost effectiveness?

Oratropin is 100mcg of IGF-1.
Hexatropin is 100mcg of GHRP-6 AND 100mcg of hexarelin.
(hexarelin is a GHRP-6 analog that has been shown to stimulate GH release even more strongly than GHRP-6)

oratropin is exogenous supplementation of IGF-1.
hexatropin triggers endogenous GH release (GHRP)

very different animals!

To help me understand, IGF-1 helps in the formulation of new cells which you can later grow to maturity through proper exercise and thus increase bulk/stength.
How does Hex add size? I haven't found as much info on it.

okay, 'yes' on the IGF-1 & hyperplasia

on the Hex: endogenous IGF-1 levels (that is, your body's own natural production) is the result of Growth Hormone's action in the liver, and so IGF-1 depends on endogenous GH levels.

Hexatropin contains GHRP-6, which is a GH secretogogue; that means GHRP-6 makes the body secrete GH; if it's already secreting GH, it apparently makes the body secrete more of it. That means more GH, that means more IGF-1 coming out of the liver, and THAT means more hyperplasia (clinically & anecdotally, it means more than just that, but you asked about size.

Hexatropin also contains hexarelin, which is an analog, or variation, of GHRP-6. Hexarelin has been found clinically to stimulate GH secretion 'much more strongly' than regular old GHRP-6; there's a lot of other cool stuff about hexarelin's effects; I've really been surprised by how much research I've found on it specifically. It has effects on brain & heart health & apparently the ability to 'restore' GH production levels in GH-deficient individuals.

So, again, still MORE GH, leading directly to more IGF-1, and all the good stuff that comes out of both of those. And more muscle cells.

does that help?

(it occurs to me that I may sound like a shill for IBE. For the record, I have bought with my own money ALL the IBE products I've ever received, including tropins; they have not offered me anything, I have not asked for anything. I'm clean as a whistle!)

Thumbs up

Helps alot
pure gold

I'm leaning heavily toward hexatropin due both to its cost effectiveness and my growing understanding of its potential

Thanks, Beowulf!

So you know: I've started my mongo 'tropin dance. I'll be squirting ET dose #4 in just a few minutes. Two surprises: I feel it already (and it feels pretty good), and I haven't noticed much impact on my appetite at all.

the amount of igf-1 your body will make on hexatropin is nowhere near what you'll be introducing with oratropin

I personally love oratropin to death - fantastic results with the stuff in terms of pct recovery and body recomposition.

I'm with SoS for once.

I believe the Hexa / Ecto tropins are GREAT for longer-term results but they should be used exactly like one uses hGH injections : longer term.
