Reference range
Reference ranges vary by lab, age and sex. Your own lab report carries the authoritative range, and your clinician reads it with you.
Why it matters
IGF-1 is the practical surrogate for growth hormone status because GH itself is pulsatile and difficult to capture on a single draw. It is read in any protocol involving the growth hormone axis (including Sermorelin) to titrate dose and confirm physiologic response. IGF-1 above the upper age-adjusted reference range is the hard ceiling for any growth-axis protocol at REVRCEL.
How REVRCEL clinicians read it
IGF-1 is interpreted against age-adjusted percentiles. Mid-to-upper range is the typical optimization target; supraphysiologic is not.

Common questions
Why does REVRCEL test IGF-1 instead of growth hormone?
GH is pulsatile and difficult to capture on a single blood draw. IGF-1 is the stable downstream marker.
What IGF-1 level does REVRCEL target?
Mid-to-upper age-adjusted reference. Supraphysiologic IGF-1 is not pursued.
