Human growth hormone (HGH) is a key hormone produced by the pituitary gland that stimulates growth, cell reproduction and regeneration. As we age, HGH levels naturally decline, leading to signs of aging and an increased risk of disease. Maintaining optimal HGH levels can help counteract many age-related changes.
HGH therapy involves supplements of synthetic human growth hormone to bring levels back up to what is normal for a healthy young adult. This can provide anti-aging and disease-preventing benefits. HGH injections are the most common and effective therapy.
At Equilibrium Hormone Institute in Alta Loma, we specialize in HGH replacement programs to help patients restore their vitality, energy levels and quality of life. Read on to learn all about the benefits HGH can provide.
Declining HGH levels affect people differently, but common signs and symptoms include:
Other common symptoms include joint discomfort, decreased stamina and endurance, sugar cravings, poor sleep quality, and decreases in vision, hearing and memory.
If you are experiencing any of the issues above, HGH testing is recommended to determine if a deficiency may be to blame. The sooner it is detected, the more effectively it can be treated.
Benefits of HGH therapy are wide-ranging when treatment properly restores levels. Scientific research shows improvements in:
With customized HGH therapy from Equilibrium Hormone Institute, patients also commonly report:
In short, HGH treatment can help reverse or delay many impacts of aging to help you look and feel years younger.
There are a few different forms of synthetic human growth hormone available in injection pens for HGH replacement therapy. The most commonly used type is a bioidentical recombinant HGH that has the exact same 191 amino acid sequence as natural growth hormone.
When injected under the skin (subcutaneously), it fully replicates normal physiological functions of HGH produced by your pituitary gland. It binds to receptors throughout the body to stimulate tissue growth and repair through several key mechanisms:
Over a period of months, patients notice gradual but profound improvements in body composition as muscle builds, body fat decreases, and skin, nails and hair become fuller and healthier. As cells regenerate faster, healing accelerates. Joints have less inflammation and regenerate cartilage. These regenerative effects slow signs of aging and translate to big gains in strength, energy, sexual health, emotional health and vitality.
While often associated with illegal sports performance enhancement, HGH therapy is FDA-approved to treat growth hormone deficiency which can occur after injury or illness. When medically supervised, HGH helps rebuild muscle, strengthen bones, and improve recovery in deficient patients.
There is no universal dosage or schedule for growth hormone therapy. An HGH protocol must be carefully customized based on medical history, physical exam findings, lab testing, lifestyle factors, treatment goals, and monitoring of progress and side effects.
Key factors in designing a protocol include:

Human growth hormone is a potent substance that must be administered judiciously based on frequent patient monitoring and lab testing. When prescribed correctly to address true growth hormone deficiency, it can bring transformative improvements in health, function and quality of life.
However, HGH comes with some risks if misused, including increased insulin resistance, joint pain, fluid retention, and overgrowth of bone or tissue leading to nerve compression issues like carpal tunnel syndrome. That's why expert medical oversight is so important.
