Human growth hormone (HGH), also known as somatotropin, is a key hormone produced in the pituitary gland that stimulates growth, cell reproduction and regeneration. As we age, HGH levels naturally decline, leading to signs of aging and health issues.
Symptoms of low HGH may include decreased muscle mass and strength, increased body fat, poor recovery from exercise, hair loss, sagging skin, fatigue, decreased libido, and more. Prompt diagnosis and treatment can help reverse deficiency.
HGH therapy involves injecting biosynthetic human growth hormone to restore levels and reverse associated signs of aging and poor health. It can be an important therapy for those with confirmed growth hormone deficiency.
Comprehensive pituitary hormone blood tests, including insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), are required to accurately diagnose hormone imbalance prior to starting therapy. Horizon Hormone Therapy provides state-of-the-art testing.
Deficiency may be caused by pituitary tumors, trauma, or simply normal aging. Lifestyle factors like poor sleep and high stress also deplete HGH. Understanding root causes informs proper treatment.
Clinical studies show HGH therapy can reduce body fat while building muscle mass and supporting athletic performance goals when combined with proper fitness training.
By stimulating skin cell production, collagen synthesis, and tissue repair, HGH shots can markedly improve skin texture, reducing wrinkles for a more youthful appearance.
Growth hormone enhances calcium retention and bone metabolism. HGH therapy can help reverse osteopenia and osteoporosis when combined with supplementation, nutrition and weight-bearing exercise.
Documented effects of HGH replacement include reduced depression and anxiety alongside improved cognitive function from enhanced blood flow and energy metabolism in the brain.
HGH therapy has been shown to increase white blood cell production and raise levels of immune-enhancing IGF-1 to reduce illness and support health during cold winter months.
By elevating energy, decreasing body fat, enhancing sleep quality, and increasing circulation, hormone therapy can have profound benefits for restoring libido and improving sexual performance.
Treatment begins with a hormone optimizing physician consultation, medical history review, and a physical exam. An individualized HGH dosing protocol focused on your needs and goals will then be developed alongside diet, exercise, and supplementation recommendations. Ongoing medical supervision and lab testing ensures optimization.
HGH shots are self-administered 3-7 times weekly. When administered properly, therapy is very safe for healthy adults. Most patients quickly notice benefits in areas like energy, body composition, and skin quality from restoring their growth hormone levels.
