IGF increased 30+% after 5 weeks then dropped at the end of the 14 week cycle
Tesamorelin cycle started on 3/28. I started low at 1mg and got IGF tested on 4/8. While it was not a pure baseline my IGF on 4/8 was 206. I upped the dose slowly from 1mg in the morning with 250mcg Ipamorelin to 1.5mg Tesa and kept Ipamorelin the same dose throughout the cycle.
I re-tested IGF on 5/15 and it rose to 276. After this test I upped the dose of Tesamorelin to 2mg but noticed some arm tingling/numbness so I lowered the dose back down to 1.5mg for a while until the issues subsided. On 6/11 I resumed the 2mg dose with very little issues with the tingling/numbness and ran this dose up until my third IGF test and 2nd full panel blood work.
Surprisingly, IGF went down to 245 on 7/1. Even with this, the results were quite impressive. A considerable amount of body fat was lost (will do Dexa next week to confirm how much) and I have gotten stronger while in a solid cut that has lasted over 3 months.
Aside from some test injections prior to sleep, which was not to my liking, the injections were taken in the morning first thing fasted. 30min-60min would pass post injection each morning before consuming a pre-workout drink and would not eat anything for almost 3 hours post injection.
I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I am considering doing another test to see if this was a fluke on some sort.
I do not have anymore Tesamorelin and have transitioned to a Sermorelin/Ipamorelin stack. The sermorelin is from a legit compounding pharmacy
