DEXA at 6 months is the right way to track this. Scale weight and mirror are not precise enough. The 3kg lean mass gain alongside 4 percent fat loss on TRT plus 2iu GH is a solid result. That ratio of change is exactly what a well-run long protocol should produce.

Six months into TRT at 160mg test e weekly plus GH 2iu fasted AM. Running this as a long term health and body composition protocol rather than a blast. IGF-1 at 232 at 6 months, was 118 before GH. Body fat down about 4 percent based on DEXA, lean mass up around 3kg. Morning fasted glucose has crept up 8 points - managing with berberine 500mg twice daily. Sleep improved noticeably when I moved GH to pre bed for one month trial, but fasted glucose spiked more so I went back to AM. Worth tracking if you run GH long term.
