Human growth hormone (HGH), also known as somatotropin, is a vital 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. HGH therapy can help raise HGH levels back to a youthful range, providing anti-aging and therapeutic benefits.
Declining HGH levels can lead to symptoms like:
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms of hormone deficiency, an HGH test is recommended to check your levels. Timely diagnosis and treatment can help resolve deficiency symptoms and restore wellbeing.
HGH injections can safely and effectively raise somatotropin levels when there is a deficiency. Benefits include:
HGH therapy allows you to restore youthful hormonal balance for anti-aging benefits and treat deficiency symptoms. Lifestyle measures like good nutrition, regular exercise and stress management further aid the effectiveness of treatment.
Local establishments like Anytime Fitness gym, the Serenity Spa, and Healthy Bites restaurant can support healthy lifestyle habits during therapy.
The HGH treatment process at our clinic involves:
Comprehensive hormone tests of HGH and other key hormones are done to accurately diagnose any deficiencies or imbalances. We use advanced testing methods through accredited labs like Primex Laboratories. Based on the test results, customized treatment plans are created for each patient.
During the consultation, our hormone therapy specialists explain HGH treatment options, develop a tailored protocol, discuss risks and set realistic expectations. Lifestyle recommendations to optimize results may also be provided.
HGH injections are self-administered just under the skin, typically before bedtime. This allows stable hormone levels to be maintained for proper therapeutic effect. The dosage and schedule are adjusted over time based on follow-up testing and symptom tracking.
Patients are monitored regularly through follow-up consultations and blood tests to ensure therapy is progressing well and hormone levels are balanced. The duration of treatment depends on the underlying cause of HGH deficiency and the therapeutic goals.

While often associated with illegal performance enhancement, HGH therapy is actually FDA-approved to treat growth hormone deficiency which can occur from rare pituitary tumors or injuries. When properly prescribed by a doctor, HGH helps restore growth, metabolism and vitality in deficient patients.
The most common causes of declining HGH levels are:* Aging - Somatotropin secretion peaks in puberty then slowly drops by ~14% per decade. By age 60, HGH levels are ~80% lower than in our 20s.* Pituitary tumors or damage can disrupt HGH production.* Traumatic brain injury sometimes impairs pituitary function.* Obesity - Excess body fat causes HGH resistance so less is produced.
Some of the earliest signs of falling HGH levels include:* Reduced muscle strength and exercise capacity* Mild fatigue, difficulty sleeping and anxious moods* Dry skin, reduced skin thickness and elasticity* Joint aches and reduced bone mineral densityCatching deficiency early allows prompt treatment to relieve symptoms and prevent accelerated aging.
When properly prescribed and monitored by a medical professional, HGH therapy is generally considered safe with minimal risk of side effects. However, potential side effects can include:* Water retention, joint pain or carpal tunnel syndrome* Increased insulin resistance or diabetes risk* Enlargement of breast tissue in men (gynecomastia)* Increased cancer risk with excessively high HGH levelsCareful dosing and ongoing testing helps mitigate side effect risks for safe, effective treatment.
The cost of HGH therapy can range widely depending on the treatment duration, dosing/administration method, additional tests and monitoring, clinic fees etc. Expect to invest anywhere from $500 - $1500 per month. Check if your health insurance plan covers any portion of the treatment expenses.
Some proven ways to naturally boost HGH include:* High intensity interval training workouts* Getting deep, restful sleep* Reducing excess body fat* Intermittent fasting* Taking certain amino acid supplements like arginine and lysineCombining these lifestyle measures with exogenous HGH therapy offers the most robust anti-aging and therapeutic benefits.
