• How Serostim is dosed clinically (mg vs “bro units”) — and why units can be misleading
• The common adult dosing range used in studies (4–6 mg daily = roughly 12–18 IU)
• Why the label emphasizes ONE subcutaneous dose at bedtime (instead of splitting doses all day)
• The #1 side effect in trials and post-marketing reports: glucose intolerance / elevated blood sugar
• Why every-other-day dosing showed fewer side effects with similar improvements in outcomes
• What the data says about edema (water retention), carpal tunnel symptoms, fatigue, triglycerides, and more
• Practical injection notes: sterile water vs bacteriostatic water, multi-use handling, and why it matters
• What the research actually shows on lean mass, fat changes, and performance/endurance
• Key warnings: critical illness/surgery/trauma, active malignancy risk (IGF-1), diabetic retinopathy, etc.
If you’ve ever wondered why bros run weird HGH schedules (3–4 IU here and there, multiple daily “pulses”), this one’s for you — because the clinical dosing and safety data paints a very different picture.
