Human growth hormone (HGH), also known as somatotropin, is a vital hormone produced by the pituitary gland that plays a crucial role throughout our lives. Children and adolescents rely on HGH to reach their full height potential, while we continue producing HGH as adults to maintain optimal health and vitality.
However, HGH production declines with age naturally. By the time we reach our 30s and 40s, our HGH levels have already begun dropping considerably compared to our youth. This reduction continues progressively as we grow older. Low HGH is associated with increased body fat, decreased muscle mass, reduced bone density, lackluster energy levels, and other unwelcome effects of aging.
Fortunately, growth hormone deficiency can be treated successfully through HGH therapy - the therapeutic use of bioidentical human growth hormone injections to restore healthy HGH levels.
When administered properly under medical supervision, HGH therapy can produce transformative improvements in body composition by reducing body fat and increasing lean muscle mass, strengthen bones, enhance physical performance, restore youthful energy levels, improve mood and cognitive function, strengthen the immune system, promote better sleep quality, restore hair growth and skin thickness, and help achieve sustainable weight loss when combined with diet and exercise.
The goal of HGH therapy is not to exceed normal healthy GH levels but restore deficient hormones in older adults to improve quality of life. Treatment must be prescribed and monitored by experienced medical experts to ensure safety and efficacy.
Many unpleasant signs and symptoms can manifest when our growth hormone production begins declining prematurely beyond normal age-related reductions. Being aware of the common indicators of adult-onset GH deficiency is important for recognizing when treatment may be warranted.
HGH deficiency should be suspected if you are experiencing three or more of the following symptoms:
The negative effects of low GH production can seriously impact one’s quality of life. If the above symptoms sound all too familiar, know that help exists! Reversing declining hormonal output through growth hormone therapy can restore wellbeing and allow you to thrive again.
Modern bioidentical HGH injections effectively reverse the unwanted effects of growth hormone deficiency to dramatically improve health and appearances in adults.
Patients treated with HGH therapy reliably experience benefits such as:
In combination with improved lifestyle choices, HGH therapy can help patients not only look better but feel years younger with boundless energy. Treatment directly corrects the fundamental hormonal imbalance driving unwanted symptoms rather than just masking them.
If testing confirms clinically low IGF-1 and HGH blood levels, hormone replacement therapy with bioidentical human growth hormone will likely be recommended.
There are two standard protocols utilized for growth hormone therapy:
We educate our patients to correctly self-administer HGH injections subcutaneously using an ultra-thin needle. The upper abdomen, thighs, and hips provide suitable injection sites that can easily be rotated. Most patients find the short daily home injections simple to integrate into their routines.
Frequent lab testing allows for the precise dose adjustments needed to safely optimize treatment. Patient feedback about progress is also invaluable for making ongoing improvements as needed over time.
While often associated with performance enhancement and anti-aging, HGH therapy was originally developed in 1985 as a treatment for children with growth hormone deficiency to help them achieve normal height and development. When prescribed legitimately by doctors, HGH can have profound benefits for those with medical conditions causing growth failure.
Seeking timely diagnosis and treatment for hormonal imbalances can enhance results and prevent complications down the road. The longer deficient hormone levels persist, the higher the likelihood of developing associated medical conditions.
Symptoms also tend to intensify progressively with age in the absence of treatment. Patients who intervene at younger ages with early stage deficiencies commonly respond exceptionally well to therapy.
As experts specializing exclusively in hormone optimization, we understand the urgency of prompt action. Our streamlined evaluation process allows new patients to undergo testing without extended waiting periods. Test results are quickly analyzed to develop customized treatment plans for those requiring intervention.
We also realize therapy is a long term commitment requiring ongoing guidance. Our clinical advisors act as partners through each stage of treatment - explaining options, teaching injection methods, closely monitoring progress via labs/exams, modifying dosages, and ensuring exceptional patient experiences.
Certain lifestyle measures can enhance the benefits achieved from HGH therapy. Patients can amplify improvements by also:
We also suggest connecting with local health-related businesses while undergoing treatment. Excellent options to consider include:
Focusing on positive lifestyle changes enables patients to lose fat rapidly, gain toned lean muscle, think more clearly, avoid burnout, and feel rejuvenated.
Growth hormone therapy provided by our highly trained hormone physicians can help aging adults repair low GH levels to feel youthful again. We offer cutting edge treatment plans focused on the individual needs of patients wanting to enjoy longer lasting benefits from optimized hormone balances.
