[QUOTE="Nelson Vergel, post: 196572, member: 3"] I would not donate more frequently than every 3 months. I would get this panel to look at my ferritin and iron stores: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.discountedlabs.com/anemia-18-test-panel[/URL] I would take an iron supplement plus vitamin C. Anemia can decrease IGF-1 "[URL='https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6166184/']Effect of anemia on GH-IGF-I axis in children, adolescents and adults[/URL] Isguven et al. studied 25 prepubertal children with IDA and 25 healthy controls. IGF-1, ghrelin, and insulin levels were significantly lower in the ID group (56). They suggested that low ghrelin and insulin levels might be the cause of the appetite loss in IDA. In addition, low Ghrelin (a GH secretagogue) may decrease GH and subsequently IGF-I secretion and related growth delay both to low IGF-1 secretion and appetite loss (56). In 40 infants and young children with IDA (Hb = 8.2±1.2 g/dL) treated for 6 months with iron therapy, circulating IGF-I increased significantly, along with acceleration of GV and increased length SDS and BMI (56). In adolescents, Choi and Kim reported significant correlation between Hb concentration and serum iron on the one hand and IGF-I concentration on the other hand (57). In a large cohort (n= 1,093) of adults the association of IGF-I with Hb concentration was studied. Anemic adults exhibited significantly lower IGF-I compared with non-anemic controls (58, 59)." I would test by IGF-1 one to two hours after injection. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.discountedlabs.com/igf-1-insulin-like-growth-factor-1[/URL] 2 IU of Serostim may be too low to achieve considerable IGF-1 increases. I would use 6 IU. I would also supplement with citrulline.
