Many people are unaware that a lack of human growth hormone (HGH) can significantly impact daily living. As we age, HGH levels naturally decline, leading to changes in body composition, energy levels, cardiovascular health, mood, cognitive function and more. Recognizing the signs of growth hormone deficiency early on is key to receiving prompt treatment.
Common symptoms in adults include:
If several of the above apply, hormone testing is recommended to check IGF-1 and growth hormone levels. The earlier treatment begins, the better patients respond.
Those most likely to struggle with dropping growth hormone levels include:
Paying attention to symptoms, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, hormone testing can help identify falling growth hormone early when treatment is most effective.
Once diagnosed with GH deficiency through bloodwork and clinical evaluation, HGH injections can help patients regain energy, strength and quality of life. When prescribed and monitored by a qualified hormone specialist, growth hormone therapy offers a long list of benefits:
The wide range of benefits offered by bioidentical growth hormone therapy are unmatched. Treatment helps patients look youthful while allowing them to feel as healthy and energetic as they did in their 20s and 30s.
The first step is to schedule bloodwork and a clinical evaluation of hormone levels with one of Balance Hormone Clinic' specialized hormone doctors. Our practitioners will review health history, discuss symptoms, perform medical exams, and order tests to assess IGF-1, growth hormone, and other hormone levels.
Based on comprehensive test results and medical assessment, an individualized HGH prescription will be developed if deficiency is present. Dosage must be carefully determined based on the patient's health profile and needs to optimize benefits while avoiding side effects.
HGH therapy is administered via subcutaneous injections. This involves injecting medication into fat tissue just beneath the skin, allowing it to enter circulatory system. Treatment always begins with a lower dose which is gradually increased over 4-6 weeks based on follow-up testing.
Key aspects patients need to know when starting growth hormone therapy include:
