I am heading into my 8th week on IGF-1 lr3 at a dose of 80mcg's a day, and since I started, my stomach has gotten more and more bloated. I have been using IM on each side to the main body part trained. (40 ea side)
Has anyone else experienced this?

yep, in my offseason I was using IGF at 100mcgs a day. My gut got over 42" at the belly button. I was even on the last holes on my weight belt, lol. Luckly Im very big and wide up top so it didnt look to bad.

I never noticed that. Hey Nuk, did the bloating go down after stopping usage??

Same happened to me. I ended up with 4 inches on my waist. It dropped really fast, but it was very obvious. Im glad im not the only one. I thought it was just another thing I was a freak with.

Press, that was my initial worry!!! I am not sure if its bloat or just an increase in intestinal size??? The later was making me worried. Next week is my last week for that and it will end my 10wk run, I will let you guys know if I see a reduction.

Some have attributed the bloat from eating a lot more since one of the effects is that it makes you very hungry. The food has to go somewhere.

So it is just from the food eating , not intestine growth?

In most cases it probably is. Pros only get the big guts after prolonged use of HGH (which converts to IGF-1). I'm pretty sure that one cycle of IGF at 40-80mcgs is not going to be enough to make your intestines grow like that.

Both of my Pro friends state that they get bloated bellies when they use IGF, however, both say that with the diuretic usage prior to the show it is completely rectified. Without going too much further, one definately hasn't had issues with his waist on stage. 26 inches I think he said.....

I think it was water for me as well in that as soon as I dropped it my waist was back to normal in about 4 days.

Hmmm, I've never heard of bloat associated with igf but thats probably mainly since all i ever use if gh, and I dont have that distended look either but my doses are not what some pros are either.
