Human growth hormone (HGH), also known as somatotropin, is an important hormone produced in the pituitary gland. As the name suggests, it stimulates growth in children and adolescents. However, it also continues to play vital roles throughout adulthood.
Some key functions of HGH include:
HGH levels naturally decline with age. This reduction is associated with changes like decreased muscle mass, increased body fat, reduced bone density, decreased stamina, mood changes and wrinkled skin.
HGH injections can help counteract many age-related changes by restoring youthful hormone levels. At Renew Medical HRT Clinic, we specialize in HGH replacement therapy to help patients look better, feel better and function at their peak.
The signs and symptoms of HGH deficiency in adults can be subtle initially. Some common indicators include:
These nonspecific complaints should prompt evaluation of hormone levels, including HGH. Measurement requires dynamic testing that assesses the pituitary gland's ability to secrete HGH in response to stimulation. Standard blood tests cannot diagnose growth hormone deficiency on their own.
At Renew Medical HRT Clinic, we utilize sophisticated diagnostic protocols to thoroughly evaluate HGH status. Our focus is providing personalized and precise treatment tailored to the patient's unique hormonal environment and needs.
Once confirmed, HGH deficiency can be effectively treated with injections of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH). This bioidentical hormone has the exact same sequence as natural HGH. Treatment aims to restore levels back to a healthy young adult range.
The preferred method of administration is subcutaneous injections. This involves injecting a small dosage under the skin, typically in the thighs or abdomen. The injections are well-tolerated, with minimal discomfort.
Most patients start with 3 injections per week, with dosage titrated over the first months based on lab results and clinical response. Ongoing monitoring helps ensure optimal therapy over the long term.
With treatment, deficient adults can recapture many qualities of youth. Rebalancing HGH rewinds multiple visible signs of aging while optimizing energy, body composition and wellbeing.
Documented benefits include:
- Increased lean muscle mass and decreased body fat - Smoother, firmer and more elastic skin - Thicker, healthier hair and nails - Improved bone mineral density - Enhanced exercise capacity and endurance
- Normalization of blood lipids with increased HDL and lower LDL/triglycerides - Better blood sugar regulation and insulin sensitivity - Reduced cardiovascular risks
- Increased energy, motivation and stamina - Improved mood - reduced anxiety and depression - Better ability to focus and concentrate - Enhanced self-confidence
HGH injections were originally derived in 1985 from human cadavers, but due to contamination risks, today HGH is biosynthesized in laboratories using recombinant DNA technology. This allows production of a hormone identical to natural HGH to enhance growth in children with deficiencies, without risk of transmitting infections.
Certain lifestyle measures can maximize the benefits of HGH therapy:
Integrating these positive habits provides the optimal internal environment to synergize with HGH therapy.
