Human growth hormone (HGH) is an important hormone produced in the pituitary gland that helps regulate growth, metabolism, and maintenance of healthy body composition. As we age, HGH production naturally declines leading to a growth hormone deficiency.
Common signs and symptoms of HGH deficiency in adults include:
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it may indicate an HGH deficiency requiring treatment. Blood tests measuring IGF-1 levels can help confirm an HGH deficiency.
HGH replacement therapy can provide life-changing improvements by restoring hormone levels. Benefits of HGH therapy include:
Correcting an HGH deficiency can transform patients' health, vitality, appearance and quality of life.
The first step is to schedule a consultation and evaluation with our hormone therapy experts at HormoVital. We will conduct a physical exam and review health history along with ordering blood tests to measure IGF-1 and confirm HGH deficiency.
Once diagnosed, an individualized HGH treatment plan can be developed mapping out the therapy protocol.
HGH therapy protocols involve daily injections using sterile needles just under the skin, typically in the thighs or abdomen. While self-administering injections at home, our clinicians closely monitor patients with regular follow-ups and blood work to ensure optimal, safe hormone levels are achieved.
The standard starting HGH dosage averages 1-2 IU (International Units) per day adjusting up or down based on how the patient responds over 3-6 months to reach full benefits. Dosages rarely need to exceed 4 IU daily.
As experts in hormone therapy, the physicians at HormoVital will collaborate with each patient to develop a customized long term treatment plan meeting their health goals. We also provide counseling on recommended lifestyle and diet changes that best complement HGH therapy.
If struggling with sudden, unexplained fatigue gaining weight and losing muscle mass, it is important to get tested for HGH deficiency right away instead of waiting. Delaying HGH therapy can result in accelerated aging, increased risk for heart disease, diabetes and weakened bones leading to a major decline in strength, energy and vitality.
Research shows the best results are achieved when starting HGH replacement in the early phases of deficiency diagnosis. Effects become more pronounced over 6-12 months enabling patients to realize the full range of physical and mental enhancements from restoring their growth hormone levels.
While often associated with performance enhancement and anti-aging, HGH therapy is actually approved to treat children with growth hormone deficiency to help them achieve normal height and promote proper development during childhood and adolescence.
