for the most part yea. now im not sayen to go shoot up 2000 mg/week of test cause yea ur gonna fuck yourself up bad but u take 300-500 mg/week and have a good post cycle therapy (pct) lined up to help your body bounce back, thats way better in my opinion the HGH. just my opinion though if your dead set on HGH your gonna take it regardless of what other people say, so im just giving you something to consider.
