Human growth hormone (HGH) is crucial for growth, cell regeneration, bone strength, muscle mass, brain function, mood, energy levels, and metabolism. As we age, HGH levels start to decline leading to an array of symptoms:
- Loss of lean body mass - Reduced muscle tone, endurance and strength - Difficulty exercising
- Thinning and weakening of bones (osteoporosis) - Stiffness, pain and reduced flexibility
- Poor memory, focus and concentration - Increased anxiety, irritability, and social isolation
- Excess body fat, high cholesterol - Reduced immunity, slow healing of wounds - Fatigue, low motivation and sex drive
While some decline in HGH is natural with age, a deficiency can aggravate age-related symptoms. Genetics, chronic stress, poor sleep, and inadequate nutrition also contribute. Getting tested to determine HGH levels is crucial for timely treatment.
HGH injections help elevate HGH levels improving various deficiency symptoms:
- Increased protein production for muscle growth - Improved exercise ability, endurance and strength
- Stimulating bone-forming cells (osteoblasts) - Relieving stiffness and swelling in joints
Enhanced memory, focus and concentration Balancing neurotransmitters to lift mood and reduce anxiety
- Building immunity, faster healing - Losing excess fat, gain lean mass - Regulating cholesterol
With customized protocols targeted to individual needs, most patients report significant benefits within 3-6 months of commencing treatment.
HGH therapy involves regular injections of a bioidentical form of the growth hormone. Treatment protocols and dosage varies based on:
dosage is lowered as treatment progresses based on patient's age
customized to elevate patient's HGH into healthy range
dosage adjusted based on goals - anti-aging benefits, athletic performance etc.
modified based on patient's response and side effects if any
Typically most adults are prescribed a low dose of 0.3 - 0.5 IU daily. Levels are tested and adjusted until optimal wellbeing is attained.
Treatment is continued long-term under medical guidance as HGH benefits persist only as long as treatment is maintained. Patients undergo periodic blood work to monitor progress.
As HGH levels decline, deficiency symptoms creep in slowly and progressively. Many dismiss early signs often attributing to natural aging, stress or poor lifestyle. However, prolonging treatment can allow symptoms to worsen and significantly impact quality of life.
Benefits of early intervention: - Reversing symptoms before they worsen - Shorter treatment duration for desired outcomes - Enhanced results from therapy - Improved overall health, wellbeing and vitality
