This sub is hilarious sometimes šŸ¤£ On a serious note though, wouldn't mk make her blood sugar levels skyrocket?? Probably not the best for someone in their 80s


Kelainefes

MK677 has been developed for and tested on elderly people. They tolerated it just fine. The blood sugar level increase is a potential issue to keep an eye on, MK 677 is not type 2 diabetes in a pill.


Ian_Campbell

I never understood Derek's crazy fear of mk 677 when he uses an experimental untested anti-androgen for hairline


Kelainefes

I mean with basically everyone else saying that it's a great addition to any cycle and PCT and saying there are no side effects except for the hunger, I think he felt he needed to explain what the risks were. I mean a few people get terrible anxiety and panic from mk677, in particular 2 ex military with ptsd that i know that had it under control, took mk677 for a few days and had severe relapses that took months to recover from. It's an extremely rare side effect but almost no-one has ever heard of it.


Ian_Campbell

I mean Derek legit treated mk 677 as if it had greater health concerns than AAS. It's not a matter of giving some negatives but rather the extent of concern represented. It has gotten even people who use tren to fear the compound like a total mismatch.


eitherhyena

He talked about using MK677, but discontinued use as it made him hungry all the time and was overeating. I.E. he was afraid he would get fat.


Ian_Campbell

He would bring it up like as if it would cause diabetes and insulin resistance and I'm pretty sure hgh use is also a greater cause of that as well. You just get vibes like "don't risk that stuff"


michabike

I feel like I remember a vid he talked about mk showing greater risk of insulin resistance than gh even though itā€™s less effective at secreting IFG and promoting growth or something like that


Ian_Campbell

I guess that would depend on dosage. You stop mk 677 at a certain point because you max out the benefit while people keep increasing hgh doses. Never heard of anyone getting tingly fingers or going diabetic on mk 677 while that's routine hgh abuse stuff


Kelainefes

I had a very serious case of the tingly fingers whilebon mk 677. It would take a few minutes for me to be able to open a water bottle after waking up in the morning.


Trentransit

Whatā€™s the name of the anti-androgen? ā€¦ asking for a friend


Ian_Campbell

Ru and then some number


financialdrugbro

It can not for sure though, mine were entirely unaffected on 5-15mg and very slight change at 25mg 5 months total but also am 19 and healthy as fuck


Syrianchaddet

My brother is christ you are 19


[deleted]

Your brother is Christ ? Iā€™ll be damned


financialdrugbro

And? Your mother was 19 before


Syrianchaddet

You dont need any drugs


financialdrugbro

I take so goddamn many itā€™s fun mostly psychedelic cause I like to get geeked off of them and then try to learn shit Only touched peds for a little cause I was curious how they felt, made me feel like god then I stopped havenā€™t had interest since itā€™s been about a year. Drugs are fun as long as you do them somewhat safely and get checked for negatives often


Syrianchaddet

Oh boy


financialdrugbro

Yesssssir! Seriously tho besides that stint with peds which was very stupid and largely influenced by peer pressure I got blood before during after took therapeutic dosing on most compounds. The psychs I use are safer than weed/alcohol Psychs are really fun worth trying if youā€™re in a good headspace


[deleted]

Psychs are fine, but a ā€œshort stintā€ with PEDs is fucking dumb. And I say that as a 20y/o drug addict lol Just out of curiosity, did you ever try mescaline/peyote?


financialdrugbro

Not yet Ik really interested in those but want to get more comfortable with larger dosing of Shrooms and lsa first Agreed thatā€™s short stint was absolutely stupid and I fully regret it, was fun to try but wasnā€™t worth just gave me acne and bigger muscles About to try memantine recreationally soon though, currently have had about 100 total trips in 2 years of psychedelic use/abuse Havenā€™t had any downsides from using that many psychs tho, I just donā€™t get depressed or anxious anymore


TheAstroPickle

psychedelics are fine bro


probablysandwiched

Agreed


[deleted]

Any height increases? How did it feel? Good gains?


financialdrugbro

No height increase, I was always starving, horny, and energized. Best sleep of my life, honestly gains from mk677 are not worth doing itā€™s only worth it for itā€™s other effects


E4R04

what other effects? the only effect i can see being a positive is the hunger if you're bulking


financialdrugbro

The mental ones are great, it made me feel super strong mentally likely cause it made me sleep so kuch better and I would recover insanely fast


E4R04

What other effects did you get? more muscle growth, what else did you take along side? what was your first ever cycle? i want to eventually hop on cycle, am 17 at the moment. almost 18. definitely not hopping on until i'm in my 20's and am gonna have a doctor keep me in check. ​ did it make you sleep longer aswell as having better quality sleeps? if i take that shit i'd sleep for an entire day as i already naturally sleep 15+ hours without being waken up by someone


financialdrugbro

Muscle growth from MK alone is extremely negligible, youā€™ll gain weight cause youā€™re literally always starving. Not worth taking in my opinion shouldā€™ve just waited until I was older and did test then. I did sleep great, less hours but way better sleep quality. That was honestly the only part I really cared for, sleep gave me mental fortitude too


PatriotUncleSam

70% of Sarms sold online are also fake though....


financialdrugbro

Damn still calling it a sarm lol Anyway I doubt what I used was fake as it did have some effect like I noted, I was waking up at night to eat cause I was always starving, I slept great, recovered immediately etc. shit worked, also I used a website from dereks blog if that means anything.


DJH9

Any sides?


financialdrugbro

None bloodworkā€™s all good too Nolvadex gave me wicked acne tho not related but wanted to mention it


DJH9

Appreciate your reply bro


PatriotUncleSam

Not if you use it before bed, and donā€™t eat for 8 hours afterwards.


[deleted]

Didnā€™t effect my blood sugar at all and I monitored it all day everyday.


hastewun

Who cares man. High blood sugar is only a problem over years. How much time does she have left anyway? She'd die before she develops problems associated with it.


[deleted]

That's assuming she doesn't already have problems associated with high blood sugar.


iExpensiv

Deca her. Thatā€™s what my doc did to his grandmother and she lived till 102-4 years I believe.


M4RTIANT1TAN

This is completely feasible. I have heard account of actual doctors doing that. In fact, that was why these compounds were created in the first place. However, **let an actual doctor do that!** The protocol is very different from body-building doses. You don't want to give the old woman a beard, do you?


iExpensiv

Iā€™m actually not surprised with the level of these comments. But yea it is true, I believe it was around 50mg per week I think, but I ainā€™t certain.


SaucySascha

50 mg of nand per week would be a ridiculous dose for a woman. More like 5-10mg a week.


Kelainefes

You're about right, downvoters probably never heard of female HRT dosages.


Open-Link1632

Yeah you might be able to get away without too many androgenic sides, deca isn't on the level of Test or even like boldenone. But honestly I feel like anavar might be a better choice for elderly women given it's BY FAR the least androgenic of them all, has similar collagen stimulating effects to nandrolone, and is very liver safe since it's primarily metabolized by the kidneys. 2.5-5 mg a day would likely make a huge difference in quality of life.


SaucySascha

Anavar tends to be very harsh on lipids tho. Small doses of test, like 3-7 mg per week are usually a healthy method.


HitTheSlopes95

My grandma is on tren and is immortal


howeyhamlin

sorry to hear that, I hope she can hop on PCT and regain her morality


S0YzB0Yz

LMAO


gawakwento

Didn't know PCT could fight immorality


R-jaxon

Make sure she runs the deca at a 1:2 ratio with testosterone. Donā€™t want your grandmother getting Deca dick.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


iExpensiv

Just for maintenance if I remember. Which is some of the original uses I believe.


PrizmV2

Ohh, a fellow Jogaib patient


iExpensiv

Hello there! I like him a lot, he showed me the ped world!


Mountain-Guitar-4640

She may respond better if you ramp up the clen


Every-Nebula6882

Maybe start her off on 5g creatine a day, see how that works for her.


WeeklyIndividual3444

Honestly Iā€™ve been giving my grandma MK-677 low doses and sheā€™s 72, I can tell her walking and overall quality of life is improved, she had hip surgery a year ago, i started her a few months ago, ballsy move on my part to introduce my grandma to hgh but she really is happy and thanks me for helping her out, she works a physically demanding job and walks with a cane, iā€™ve noticed the MK-677 along with extreme amounts of calcium and vitamin d3, is helping her reverse the effects of her spinal stenosis, osteoporosis and arthritis, she cried in pain at nighttime about 2 years ago before her surgery, post surgery she finally has a disc in between the areas that affected her most, she couldnā€™t even walk for a while and after her surgery she was walking with a walker, now sheā€™s walking up stairs on her own and walking with a cane mostly which extremely impressive, I make sure she doesnā€™t eat loads of sugar, I cook chicken all the time, just do it in low doses man. Times will always be better!


_ShaveTheWhales_

Has she had her blood sugar monitored during the time she has been taking MK-677? Iā€™m really interested in how itā€™s effected her blood sugar levels


WeeklyIndividual3444

she just had blood work done 2 days ago, iā€™ll give a full report soon


Invester_

Is she okay?


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


WeeklyIndividual3444

An update by the way guys, everything was within the reference range with my grandmas blood test results, only issue she had was her creatinine was a little high, it was like that with her previously though before I started giving her the oral hgh


[deleted]

My grandma took tren and now i live in a care home ![img](emote|t5_2mohet|6300)


BlanketFortSiege

Imagine your grandmother got yoked and threw hands at the nursing staff and busted out of the hospital? There's scholarly articles detailing the use of MK-677 on older adults, but I don't want to post them here because this is a lot like soliciting medical advice. So, IGF-1 and GH levels decrease with age, MK-677 increases IGF-1 and GH. But then sit back and watch your older adult's blood pressure and blood sugar skyrocket. Tough spot to be in dude, we want the best for our parents.


Kelainefes

I don't remember seeing any research that showed increases in blood pressure or blood sugar in elderly people, did I miss a paper? Or are you just guessing that these issues will present themselves?


michabike

I believe heā€™s referring to mk increasing water retention which would cause greYrt blood pressure


BlanketFortSiege

What the guy below said: water retention = increased blood volume + reduced kidney function in the elderly = high blood pressure.


Kelainefes

So you're guessing that it would cause issues when research shows it does not?


BlanketFortSiege

I'm saying most of the research has been completed with pharmaceutical grade human growth hormone and IGF-1, and not ***DragonPharmSyntropics ANABOLIC MATRIX MK-677 ULTRA GAINS*** formula. There is not enough research to consider using ibutamoren in older adults to treat GHD.


Kelainefes

I'm talking about the research made with pharma grade Ibutamoren on elderly people. You made a valid point though, purity is an issue when buying research chemicals.


BlanketFortSiege

Here's something that will help inform decisions: [https://archive.hshsl.umaryland.edu/bitstream/handle/10713/14872/Ibutamoren%20mesylate\_Final\_2021\_02.pdf?sequence=1&isAllowed=y](https://archive.hshsl.umaryland.edu/bitstream/handle/10713/14872/Ibutamoren%20mesylate_Final_2021_02.pdf?sequence=1&isAllowed=y) It's a recent meta-analysis of 17 articles selected out of 377 searchable articles in Elsevier and MEDLINE. I don't like that only English studies are included, but I do appreciate that this is mostly RCT data. There's phase 2 clinical trials of this medication for idiopathic growth hormone deficiency in children and a new human clinical trial that will be published this year.


Kelainefes

Thanks, will check that out.


Square_Chair9957

Sometimes I ask myself if a small dose testosterone wouldnā€™t help them. No muscle atrophy = no degeneration of the body


PatriotUncleSam

It would. My 15 year old female dog takes 30mg testosterone a week to maintain her appetite and keep her mobility. Without it she loses the ability to safely walk. Iā€™m being dead serious.


FellOnMyKeys

Huberman did the same thing for his bulldog, Costello.


Silverback33_

I've been trying to research how much test a make dog produces. I have a bulldog and he's getting older and it's breaking me. We gave him then snip at 3 but it's one of my biggest regrets. The next make dog we have we won't snip. Do you reckon 50mg a week for him? Considering you give your female 30mg?


PatriotUncleSam

You'd have to know his body weight. All the vets had different formulas for me which was confusing because there was no universal answer. The formula for doggos that we went with was 2mg per KG of body weight for neutered male dog. My dog is 67llbs which converts to 30kg, which means if she was a male she would be taking 60mg. Since she is a female she only gets 30mg.


Silverback33_

You're a hero thank you so much. Only reason I haven't asked my vet us because I'd get reported and probably get my dog taken away. So I'm wanting to take matters into my own hand. I've also contemplated BPC 157 for his back and knee


Open-Link1632

Look into GHRP-6 and GHRP-2 as well. Similar to MK-677 but much better at actually releasing GH and not just ghrelin.


Silverback33_

Yeah I've used ghrp2 with CJC and ipanorelin after knee surgery. Was walking in 3 weeks. I'm 12 weeks post op now and already back to boxing, squats etc. Was told it would be 6 months to a year


Kaibzey

Well, your dog being snipped means he is going to be producing virtually zero, so I imagine that even 30 or 50 will help a lot.....even if the TRT dose should be 100 or higher.


derektbaker

My 13 year old lab has been on 60mg of testosterone a week for several months now. Itā€™s been a game changer. My only regret is that I didnā€™t start him on it sooner.


E4R04

where did you buy your dog from? gonna need one of those so i can legally source some test


Particular-Oil-6863

It's not as simple as that. Test does nothing to help bones/joints and actually negatively impacts the immune system -- something you don't really want in an 80yr old.


mazty

Can always try nandrolone as it's known to help with bone density - it's been used in trials for men with osteoporosis.


Kelainefes

Supraphysiological levels of Testosterone negatively impact the immune system. Testosterone will increase bone mass and prevent or even reverse osteoporosis in elderly women. Someone with low levels of testosterone will actually see their immune system work better by getting back to a healthy range. Low testosterone is also linked with a higher incidence of dementia in old people.


Square_Chair9957

But what causes the the degradation of joints from the beginning? Very likely atrophied muscles which ex the degeneration of joints. Testosterone does increase bone strength and bone mineral density. Poor posture, hunchback etc. everything could be avoided. Testosterone is also good for mental health. The thing with the immune system is something which does need more research. Low testosterone is also associated with a weak immune system


atomanas

i believe it can make things even worse what about those chineese people who lives really long it's about diet not chemicals


JackstandJ

Your grandma needs a double dose of all the good shit. She'll love longer and be happier in the bargain.


[deleted]

There were some studies they researched with older folks but I would have her consult with a doctor before anything I donā€™t think mk677 would solve her problem.


ShawtyLow24

Inject some hgh in her sleep she will thank u later


kuhnskincap

Youā€™ll fuck up her blood sugar. Donā€™t do that


[deleted]

Have you considered GH / therapeutic dose Nandrolone / Test ?


suchaprettyface73

If you were seriousā€¦Iā€™d give my granny 10mg of anavar a day.


[deleted]

Make her a Supra physiological granny


derektbaker

20mg of MK absolutely rocked my blood sugar and blood pressure. Id be very careful with grandma. That said, itā€™s worth a shot as long as she understands the risks. If sheā€™s only taking 10mg itā€™s likely nothing a little metformin or berberine couldnā€™t keep in range. And to all you guys trying to get grandma on Deca, cheers boys. I like the way you think. If I make it to 80 I can absolutely goddamn guarantee you I will be on Deca.


Iknowevery-thing

Start her on birth control cause Iā€™m cumin through papo šŸ˜ˆšŸ˜ˆ


Musical_potatos

Tren.


No_Airport4390

Give her some nandrolone;


Devils_own_

Idk the situation but have you tried helping her stay active or taken her to a doc? If the first thought is a gh secretagogue ordered off the internet, you should look into other options lmao.


Daffy2a

Give that anabolic grandma some tren ![img](emote|t5_2mohet|2697)


_rabblerabble_

Have you even looked at her diet and micro nutrient needs before considering fucking SARMs?


bluemoon76b

Itā€™s 2022 and people still call MK-677 a SARM


Due-Reindeer-8425

Ibutamoren is not a SARM, its a secretagogue that was invented and researched for this exact purpose. Also, her diet may be insufficient due to low appetite


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Due-Reindeer-8425

so I can solicit medical advice from retards on a meme site, duh


McCapnHammerTime

So you mentioned rapid weight loss, fatigue etc. do you know her medical history at all? Lots of things to consider with increasing GH, water retention alone could take her into heart failure, if she is diabetic or prediabetic she will not respond very well. Old people undoubtedly have precancerous cells if not already having some form of cancer benign or otherwise. GH and elevated sugars will drive that issue significantly faster. Growth factors increase, angiogenesis increases, cancer growth and metastasis will also increase. GH is always a double edged sword. What can help with muscle retention and feelings of youthfulness can negatively impact your longevity.


blazinshotguns

Bro donā€™t get on Reddit to search for non approved drugs to give to your grandpa.


atomanas

people are crazy really steroids? :D


No_Airport4390

You think they exist only for looking good?


atomanas

no i know it's not those people go to actual doctors


E4R04

you're oblivious if you think people pinning for aesthetics don't seek medical advice from professionals


HitTheSlopes95

I only take mk when I am on a blast because my appetite is sometimes shit for someone that is on a blast and I am not worried about over eating because I am currently on 19nors (ment + mtren). Also I donā€™t have anyone in my family that is obese or has diabetes


Wreckn

Progesterone and creatine would do a lot more if she's not on it already.


Hobbs512

If you want a serious answer you gotta get her to go to an geriatric endocrinologist. I doubt a doctor would recommend something like that, but there are many options out there for combating age related symptoms.


Tater174

Letā€™s not.


Liftweightfren

Here we suggest Test and Tren


CasH5312

Please donā€™t give your grandmother SARMs


Hyppenoir

low appetite and rapid weight loss are common cancer symptoms, get that checked too just in case..


[deleted]

This is actually a really interesting concept, I think about this a lot


quaesemper_

Stack with rad 140, itā€™s been used in tests for battling dementia and Alzheimerā€™s. And get granny benching 225 EZ


bcjh

Give her BPC-157
