Discounted Lab Question

Just wondering why Discounted Lab does not offer a Serum Growth Hormone Level test?

Insulin-like Growth Factor 1, also known as IGF-1, is used as a biomarker for blood levels of human growth hormone. It is a hormone produced by the liver and other tissues which affects growth-promoting activities and glucose metabolism. The blood level of IGF-1 appears to be constant over 24 hours and is found to be related to growth hormone secretion.

Thanks. I'm aware of that. I wanted to use HGH Serum Test to verify my HGH was the real deal and correct potently.

Serum growth hormone test is highly variable and not predictive of actual GH amount. IGF-1 is more stable as a marker.

I decided not to carry it but can add it if people think it's needed.

Thanks Nelson. I would like it to test my HGH. Other online labs carry it.
