Overview of HGH Therapy
Human growth hormone (HGH) is a vital hormone produced in the pituitary gland, playing a crucial role in growth, cell regeneration, and metabolism. As we age, HGH levels naturally decline, leading to unwanted changes such as decreased muscle mass, increased body fat, low energy, reduced immunity, and impacts on skin, hair, and sleep.
HGH therapy involves supplementing growth hormone levels to restore them to more youthful ranges. This can produce transformative improvements in energy, body composition, skin quality, mood, sleep, endurance, motivation, fat loss, and more. When clinically supervised, it is a safe and highly effective anti-aging and wellness therapy.
Diagnosing HGH Deficiency
The first step is testing your insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) and HGH blood levels to assess your deficiency. Common symptoms and risk factors include:
Symptoms
- Decreased energy and stamina
- Increased body fat, especially visceral belly fat
- Reduced muscle strength and mass
- Wrinkles, fine lines, and other skin aging
- Thinning hair or balding
- Poor sleep quality
- Low mood, motivation, or sex drive
- Cognitive decline (brain fog)
Risk Factors
- Being middle-aged or older
- Previous head trauma or brain injury
- Chronic stress
- Sedentary lifestyle
- Smoking
- Excess body fat
- Poor dietary health
However, a blood test is needed to accurately determine if your IGF-1 and HGH levels indicate a growth hormone deficiency suitable for replacement therapy.
HGH Level Classification:
Age |
Deficient GH Levels |
Low-Normal GH Levels |
Mid-Normal GH Levels |
18-30 years old |
< 3 ng/mL |
3-5 ng/mL |
5-13 ng/mL |
31-50 years old |
< 2 ng/mL |
2-5 ng/mL |
5-10 ng/mL |
>50 years old |
< 1 ng/mL |
1-3 ng/mL |
3-8 ng/mL |
If your results are on the low or deficient end, HGH therapy is strongly indicated to replenish your levels back to an optimal range.
HGH Therapy Procedures and Protocol
There are various options for bioidentical human growth hormone (HGH) replacement tailored to your health needs and budget, including daily vs cyclic dosing patterns. However, typically injections yield the best absorption and results.
Common options include:
- HGH Injections - Administered just under the skin using an ultrafine needle, achieving full absorption and stable blood hormone levels. Revive Health & Wellness implements state-of-the-art techniques like ultrasonic-guided shallow injections to maximize comfort and minimize potential lipodystrophy issues.
- HGH Transdermal Gels/Cream - Water-based gels or creams are applied to areas like the inner wrists, upper arms, or abdomen, absorbing into the bloodstream but being less cost-effective. Only 5-15% of the dosage is absorbed, though techniques like microneedling enhance penetration.
- HGH Oral Sprays - Administered under the tongue, sermorelin acetate stimulates your pituitary gland to secrete more natural HGH. However, oral sprays are very short-acting, and frequent dosing is key, but individual results can vary drastically.
Revive Health & Wellness Protocol for New HGH Patients:
- Initial assessment of health history, bloodwork, evaluation of deficiency symptoms, etc.
- Physician customizes optimal dosing, frequency, and delivery method of HGH therapy.
- Start doses conservatively, then slowly titrate up based on patient feedback while monitoring bloodwork.
- Consistent follow-up care is key - blood tests every 6 months, symptom, and side effect tracking, etc.
- Therapy is tailored toward the desired physical and wellness results, whether anti-aging, muscle gain, injury healing, enhanced vitality, etc., while ensuring safety and monitoring hormone balance.
- Revive Health & Wellness physicians help patients integrate supplementary lifestyle optimizations for diet, exercise, sleep, stress management, etc., to maximize the benefits.
Benefits and Results of HGH Therapy
When properly dosed, human growth hormone therapy offers a wide spectrum of incredibly positive effects:
Mental and Neurological Benefits
- Increased focus, motivation, and cognitive stamina
- Reduction of fine lines and wrinkles for a more youthful appearance
- Mood-balancing effects, reducing anxiety and depression
- Possible memory and neuronal regeneration benefits
- Higher quality of life and self-confidence
- Reduced menopause symptom intensity for women
- Improved intimacy, arousal, orgasm, and ejaculatory function
With close monitoring, most patients find HGH therapy extremely effective at increasing wellness, reversing aging, supporting physical goals like muscle gain or fat loss, and boosting their overall quality of life.
Lifestyle Optimization Strategies
While HGH therapy provides profound direct benefits, adhering to the following lifestyle strategies will further boost results:
Lifestyle and Stress Modulation
- Prioritize sleep - Quality sleep is when the body secretes HGH to heal and regenerate.
- Adaptogen herbs - Help buffer the immune system against excess stress.
- Positive social connection - Face-to-face community lowers cortisol, improving HGH effects.
- Stress reduction practices - Yoga, meditation, nature walks, etc., reduce strain on the endocrine system.
- Limit alcohol - Heavy alcohol impairs HGH and testosterone function.
By integrating these simple but profound lifestyle factors into your regimen, HGH therapy results can be significantly enhanced. Our physicians at Revive Health & Wellness provide personalized guidance to help patients achieve maximum benefits.
