Human growth hormone (HGH), also known as somatropin, is a key hormone produced in the pituitary gland that plays an important role in growth, cell reproduction and regeneration. As we age, HGH levels naturally decline, leading to signs of aging and health issues. HGH therapy involves supplementing the body's natural HGH levels through injections prescribed by a medical professional.
Low HGH levels can manifest in various symptoms, including:
If experiencing multiple deficiency signs, an HGH blood test is recommended to determine if hormone therapy could help.
When administered properly under medical guidance, HGH injections can provide remarkable improvements by:
HGH therapy involves daily subcutaneous injections, just under the skin, typically in abdominal area. HGH cannot be taken as pill form as digestive system would render it ineffective.
The regimen starts with a very low dose which is gradually increased over months based on blood test results and symptom improvements. Close medical supervision is critical as excessive HGH can lead to side effects.
HGH therapy has shown promise for improving cardiac function in those with chronic heart failure. In one study, synthetic growth hormone improved heart pumping capacity by over 8% after just 3 months of treatment in patients with moderate heart failure. The mechanism behind this benefit is not fully clear but may involve improvements in heart muscle cell health.
HGH therapy should only be administered under trained medical supervision based on symptoms, medical history and blood tests confirming deficiency.
Protocols vary but generally involve:
Frequency is normally daily injections done at consistent times, such as morning or before bed. Missing injections can impact results.
