i used 2ius ED for 6 months.. my only "sides" were my first month of adjusting to it.. otherwise it was smoothe sailing for me.. i also tapered at 1iu for the 6th month

She can start with 1iu a day and gauge her sides.. she may do well with only 1iu.. it really depends on the amount her own pitutary is producing.. the younger she is, the more she is producing and the less she needs to administer.. so in all honesty, she can feel it out!

i have posted numerous times about the first month "adjusting" period on gh.. it is quite uncomfortable and you will hear of women quitting before the good effects come into play.. however it does vary for every woman..
some possible first month sides are:
heavy menstruation
water retention
swollen and tender breasts
dry mouth
exhaustion
joint PAIN
achy body
etc..

throughout the cycle, she may continue to experience exhaustion, but it will lessen as well as the achy body and joint aches, which will subside.. she may also get carpel tunnel (but that usually comes with high doses).. again, it does vary with every woman.. but those are the generals..

Hope this helps

Good post SG! Another technique she can use is a tapering method throughout the week. It basically goes as such
Day1 1iu
Day2 2ius
Day3 3ius
Day4 2ius
Day5 1iu
Weekends off

This works well, because it works with the periodic fluxes that gh levels go through, and w/ the time off, you have less of a chance of suppressing your own levels, and effecting your insulin levels.

Thanks so much Supergirl. You're the best! I will pass the info on.
