What is HGH Therapy and who’s a candidate?

Get Started Now

HGH is an important type of growth hormone your body needs to function. It plays an important role in metabolism regulation and helps men maintain their stamina, energy levels, muscle mass, cognitive function, and many other factors. When your natural human growth hormone levels decrease, you might start to experience symptoms that negatively impact your quality of life. These can include fatigue, low sex drive, anxiety, depression, and weight gain with increased body fat.

As men age, it’s common for HGH levels to decrease, leading to a growth hormone deficiency and resulting in the above-mentioned issues. But luckily, HGH therapy can help to increase these hormone levels naturally so that you can feel like your best self.

What is HGH Therapy?

HGH therapy, also known as growth hormone therapy, increases the level of the natural human growth hormone within the body from the pituitary gland. There are two types of human growth hormones, a Synthetic human growth hormone and HGH Peptides.

Synthetic HGH is known for causing a wide variety of uncomfortable side effects. HGH Peptides is a better treatment option for men who want to improve their appearance and sex drive. Peptides signal to your body to jumpstart its own products of HGH, making it an effective form of treatment with minimal side effects.

Who is a Candidate for HGH Therapy?

HGH Therapy is good for men who have low levels of HGH, otherwise known as HGH deficiency. Specifically, men who experience anxiety and depression, lethargy, a low sex drive, and weight gain (including around the waist), are the ideal candidate for this type of treatment.

Additionally, men who want to build lean body mass and strong bones, burn fat more easily, and feel more energy could benefit from HGH treatment.

How Does HGH Therapy Work?

HGH therapy kickstarts the body’s natural development of human growth hormone, increasing the likelihood of your body producing more of HGH. When taken in pill form or injected, the HGH peptides signal to your body it’s time to produce higher levels of the human growth hormone. The exact dosage of this treatment will vary from person to person based on each individual’s health history and needs.

What are the Benefits Of HGH Therapy?

Human growth hormone benefits for men include:

  • Improved libido and performance
  • Increased muscle mass
  • Weight loss, including targeting the abdominal area
  • Improved mood
  • Healthier looking skin
  • Maintained bone density
  • Improved overall sense of wellness
  • Better memory

How Is HGH Therapy Administered?

HGH therapy can be administered in two ways depending on which specific peptide is applied to your treatment:

Ibutamoren (MK-677) – Ibutamoren is a more natural treatment method for addressing the wellness and anti-aging aspects of growth hormone deficiencies. Also known as Growth Hormone Secretagogues (GHSs), it encourages the natural release of HGH by signaling to your body to jumpstart its own production of HGH. GHSs has been demonstrated to significantly increase pituitary growth hormone production and elevate HGH levels throughout the body. It is commonly administered in pill form.

Sermorelin – Similar to Ibutamoren, Sermorelin is a growth hormone-releasing peptide (GHRP) that signals the body to jumpstart its natural production of HGH. Sermorelin has been used for decades in wellness settings to help men fight fatigue and trim stubborn belly fat. Sermorelin is typically administered as an injection.

Is HGH Therapy Safe?

Human growth hormone treatment is believed to be safe and effective when used under proper medical supervision. When administered by medical professionals, you’ll receive a thorough evaluation that helps create a treatment plan that is the best fit for your needs.

Are There Any Potential Side Effects?

Side effects of HGH therapy can include joint and muscle pain, fluid retention, and swelling. In rare cases, some individuals could experience Type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular issues, and increased risk of specific cancers.
