Available at Fresno Biolabs ($129.00) — Buy HGH →

What it is

HGH is the growth hormone your body already makes, produced in a lab. Unlike CJC-1295 or tesamorelin, which ask your body to release its own, this is the hormone itself.

Most used for

  • Body composition and lean mass
  • Sleep quality
  • Skin and connective tissue
  • Recovery from hard training

These are things researchers study. They are not promised results.

Dosing at a glance

These are the amounts used most often in research. Always start at the low end.

Vial size
36 IU (about 12 mg)
Dose range
1 IU to 3 IU per day in common use. Doctors treating a diagnosed hormone problem start much lower and adjust using blood tests.
How often
Once a day, usually at night or before a fasted morning
Cycle length
3 to 6 months in most research
Storage
Keep the dry vial cold. Refrigerate after mixing and use within about 2 to 3 weeks. Never freeze mixed HGH and never shake it.

Reconstituting it

A common setup for HGH is a 12 mg vial with 1.8 mL of bac water.

That makes 6.67 mg per mL. A 667 mcg dose is about 10 units on a standard insulin syringe.

About the liquid: Bacteriostatic water only. Add it slowly down the side of the vial.
