If i'm tested low for igf1 reflecting low hgh, would it benefit my thinned skin/skin atrophy?

Depends: The diagnosis of growth hormone deficiency is not that simple. You would need to see an endocrinologist. Low igf1 can occur in other settings. Growth hormone is very costly. It has pros and cons to treatment. Good luck.
