New Bloodwork, check it out!

There isn't much consensus on what constitutes adult-onset growth hormone deficiency. Anti-aging docs define it broadly and maintain that it can be diagnosed from symptoms. More conventional types maintain that it has to be objectively diagnosed from a growth hormone stimulation test. In that case, low IGF-1 alone would not do it. Dr. J does not discuss HGH that much here, so I am not sure, but I think he is of the school that defines the disorder broadly.

Pmgamer has said often that Dr. J told him that anyone with an IGF-1 of less than 300 is a candidate for growth hormone. But this is double hearsay, so beware.

Yea, I think your right. Thanks.
 
Might want to look into amino acid testing whengetting insurance may be you are missing some building blocks aminos acid for some reason? Potassium to can help raise gh as well as correcting inuslin imbalances (gynemma)

My potassium levels were fine on my latest BW.

I have no idea why its so low. I was fine as a teenager, but as I am advancing in my 20's, Im feeling the effects. My body doesn't recover from workouts/work as easily as it used to, and my joints are sore alot.

Im assuming my pituitary gland is fine, given my LH and FSH were normal.
