Human Growth Hormone Therapy
Cellular regeneration and anti-aging through growth hormone optimization
What is Human Growth Hormone?
Human Growth Hormone (HGH), also known as somatotropin, is produced by your pituitary gland. While essential for growth during childhood, HGH continues to play vital roles throughout life - supporting tissue repair, muscle maintenance, fat metabolism, immune function, and cellular regeneration.
HGH production peaks during adolescence and begins declining around age 25, decreasing by approximately 14% per decade. By age 60, many people have HGH levels only 20% of what they were at age 25. This decline contributes significantly to the aging process.
The Growth Hormone Decline
The age-related decrease in growth hormone, called somatopause, leads to reduced muscle mass, increased body fat (especially abdominal), decreased bone density, thinner skin, reduced energy, and impaired healing. Growth hormone optimization can help reverse many of these changes.
Symptoms of Growth Hormone Deficiency
- Loss of lean muscle mass
- Increased body fat (especially belly)
- Decreased energy and stamina
- Poor exercise recovery
- Reduced bone density
- Thinning, sagging skin
- Poor wound healing
- Sleep disturbances
- Decreased mental sharpness
- Weakened immune function
- Reduced libido
- Low mood or depression
Benefits of Growth Hormone Optimization
When growth hormone levels are optimized, patients often experience:
Body Composition
Increased lean muscle mass and reduced body fat, especially stubborn abdominal fat.
Energy & Recovery
Enhanced energy levels, improved exercise capacity, and faster recovery from workouts.
Skin & Hair
Thicker, more elastic skin with improved texture. Better hair quality and growth.
Healing & Immunity
Faster wound healing, improved immune function, and enhanced tissue repair.
Bone Health
Improved bone density and reduced risk of osteoporosis and fractures.
Mental Function
Enhanced cognitive function, memory, mood, and overall sense of well-being.
Treatment Options
We offer several approaches to growth hormone optimization:
HGH Replacement
Bioidentical human growth hormone therapy for documented deficiency. Administered via daily subcutaneous injection.
Secretagogues
Peptides like sermorelin and ipamorelin that stimulate your pituitary to produce more of its own growth hormone.
MediTropin
An alternative approach using growth factors and amino acids to support natural HGH production. Learn more.
Lifestyle Optimization
Sleep, exercise, and nutrition strategies that naturally support growth hormone production.
Who Is a Candidate?
- Adults with documented growth hormone deficiency (testing required)
- Those experiencing symptoms of age-related GH decline
- Individuals seeking anti-aging and longevity optimization
- Athletes looking to optimize recovery (within legal guidelines)
- Patients recovering from chronic illness or injury
Our Process
1Comprehensive Evaluation
Detailed history, physical examination, and discussion of symptoms and goals.
2Diagnostic Testing
IGF-1 levels and other markers to assess growth hormone status. Stimulation testing if indicated.
3Personalized Protocol
Selection of the most appropriate approach based on your results, needs, and preferences.
4Ongoing Monitoring
Regular follow-up testing and adjustments to optimize results and ensure safety.
Safety & Compliance
HGH therapy requires medical supervision and proper documentation of deficiency. We follow all legal and ethical guidelines for growth hormone prescribing. Regular monitoring ensures safe, effective treatment with minimal risk of side effects.
