First time hgh user t3/t4 questions.

[rockchopper86]

So I'm on a blast of test, mast, tren, and I'm running 4 iu a day of hgh split into 2 dose am and pm. Anyway I absolutely love it. What's the deal with t3 and t4? I keep reading I should be adding t4 to a hgh run. Wasn't aware of that when I started. School me please.

HGH increases t4 conversion to t3. However, an increased t3 would down regulate t4 production... so people replace or add t4 while using HGH. But then again, that's only recommended when you're using HGH in higher dosages for very long periods. Or when you want to get even more weight loss effects (HGH helps lose weight, so does T3 and T4). Or when you can confirm you have low T3/T4 levels, which is not that common.

Hmm soudjs like I don't need it then I'm only on hgh for 4 months at 4iu. I will be cutting soon tho. Think I should toss some in for the cut?

My 50 cents. Never screw around with your thyroid hormones without bloodwork. With thyroid hormones it's not that simply like more is better. You want the right level. Not too high and not too low.
Adjust your TSH to be in the range 0,3-0,5 for best diet results. (in off season 0,5-1 would be fine) And do so by adding carefully T4 (increasing your T4 intake will lower your TSH since TSH is the releasing hormone for the thyroid). I'd stay away from T3 especially when you are taking HGH.
And keep in mind T4 has a rather long half-life and levels have to stabilize. After you made an adjustment wait for 4 weeks before taking the next blood check.
And yes, most people don't necessarily need additional T4 when using HGH.

while you may toss some in for the cut, because T4/T3 will help with your cutting goals, I agree with

My 50 cents. Never screw around with your thyroid hormones without bloodwork. With thyroid hormones it's not that simply like more is better. You want the right level. Not too high and not too low.

playing with your hormones by using anabolic steroids and HGH is already dangerous enough, playing with your thyroid hormones makes it all even more dangerous. You would need to learn as much as possible about how they work, how to use them, have bloodwork, know how to recover and so on.
