Human growth hormone (HGH) is an important hormone produced in the pituitary gland that helps regulate growth, metabolism, and body composition. As we age, HGH production naturally declines, which can lead to undesirable changes like increased body fat, reduced muscle mass, lower bone density, reduced energy levels, and impacts on cardiac health.
HGH therapy involves supplementing with synthetic human growth hormone to restore levels back to a youthful range. This can help reverse and prevent age-related decline for improved vitality, body composition, and overall wellbeing. Proper clinical administration of HGH requires oversight from an experienced medical provider to ensure optimal and safe treatment.
Declining HGH levels rarely cause abrupt or severe symptoms. More often, people experience gradual onset of nonspecific complaints over months to years. Common signs and symptoms of HGH deficiency include:
If you've noticed gradual changes like these that impact your vitality and function, HGH therapy may help reverse course. The experienced providers at Equilibrium Hormone Institute offer advanced testing, medical expertise, and tailored treatment plans to help patients optimize their HGH levels.
When administered properly under medical supervision, HGH therapy offers a variety of benefits including:
- Improved bone mineral density to support skeletal health - Reduced joint pain and inflammation - Enhanced collagen production for injury healing
- Increased basal metabolic rate to enhance calorie and fat burning - Improved blood sugar regulation and insulin sensitivity - Positive impacts on cholesterol with increased HDL and decreased LDL
- Increased energy, vitality, and endurance - Improved mood, motivation, and sense of wellbeing - Enhanced cognitive function and mental acuity
- Improved cardiac output and endothelial function - Support for healthy organ structure and function - Protective antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects
- Anti-aging and rejuvenating effects on the skin - Protects against muscle loss (sarcopenia) - Supports mobility, strength and independence
By addressing the root cause of age-related decline, HGH therapy can help patients turn back time. The goal is to restore HGH back to youthful ranges to prevent disease, maximize quality of life, and live your healthiest life at any age.
The providers at Equilibrium Hormone Institute specialize in advanced hormone testing, comprehensive treatment planning, and expert medical supervision of HGH therapy. We follow best-practice clinical protocols to ensure safe, effective, and evidence-based care.
HGH therapy protocols typically involve subcutaneous injections 3-7 times per week. HGH dosing must be individualized and slowly titrated based on medical history, lab testing, and treatment goals. Therapeutic ranges aim to restore levels back to a youthful normal, avoiding excessive supra-physiological dosing.
To start the process, we first need to clinically confirm HGH deficiency through blood tests, medical history review, and evaluation of signs/symptoms. Initial testing panels check baseline IGF-1 levels along with other hormone levels like testosterone that can impact HGH therapy.
Once deficiency is confirmed, your Equilibrium Hormone Institute provider will work closely with you to develop a customized treatment plan including: - HGH product selection and dosing schedule - Additional lab testing parameters to monitor - Lifestyle, nutrition, and exercise recommendations - Convenient instruction for self-administering subcutaneous injections - Follow up testing and provider consultations to monitor progress and adjust dosage as needed
Proper HGH protocols must account for the needs of each unique patient. Equilibrium Hormone Institute' exceptional providers leverage their advanced training and years of clinical expertise to ensure optimal therapy administration and ongoing patient safety. We take pride in offering attentive patient care with closely monitored treatment plans that deliver life-changing results.
While HGH administration provides enormous benefits, certain lifestyle factors also profoundly impact hormone levels and therapy results. Optimizing key areas like nutrition, fitness, sleep, and stress management helps maximize treatment effectiveness.
At Equilibrium Hormone Institute, we consider lifestyle just as critical as clinical treatment plans. Our exceptional providers offer personalized guidance so patients have the tools and information needed to make sustainable improvements in all areas of health and wellbeing on their journey towards their best self.
While often associated with performance enhancement and anti-aging benefits, HGH therapy is also approved for children with diagnosed growth failure to help them reach a normal height. This is due to its ability to stimulate tissue growth by helping muscles, bones, and organs develop properly.
