Human growth hormone (HGH), also known simply as growth hormone (GH), is an important hormone produced in the pituitary gland that serves several essential functions in the human body. Some key facts about HGH include:
When HGH levels become deficient, whether due to natural aging or a medical condition, patients may experience symptoms like decreased energy, muscle loss, weight gain, hair loss, and impaired immunity.
HGH therapy involves restoring growth hormone levels to a normal range via daily injections. Used appropriately under medical supervision, HGH therapy offers a variety of potential anti-aging and wellness benefits.
Patients experiencing multiple signs and symptoms of HGH deficiency paired with a confirmed growth hormone deficiency on blood tests are candidates for hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Our medical professionals carefully evaluate each patient’s unique hormone profile, risk factors, and treatment goals to provide customized and clinically-supervised hormone optimization protocols utilizing bioidentical hormones.
The diagnosis of growth hormone deficiency (GHD) requires thorough clinical evaluation consisting of a detailed history, physical examination assessing signs and symptoms, paired with confirmation using stimulation tests that assess the ability of the pituitary gland to produce adequate levels of HGH.
Patients with growth hormone deficiency may experience a variety of symptoms, including:
Two primary stimulation tests are used to confirm GHD:
Relying only on symptoms or basing treatment solely on total IGF-1 levels fails to provide an accurate assessment of HGH status. Our clinic utilizes advanced hormone testing protocols to uncover the root causes driving deficiencies for customized treatment plans.
HGH is delivered via subcutaneous injections using small needles - typically administered each evening before bed when natural HGH production peaks. Two options patients can discuss with their practitioner:
Comprehensive treatment plans integrate customized protocols with evidence-based nutrition, fitness, and stress reduction strategies for optimal response. Our practitioners provide lifestyle guidance considering the climate, restaurants and attractions available in Tennessee Colony that can support patients on their wellness journey.
We establish trusted partnerships with our patients, closely monitoring progress through follow-up consultations and testing. Our clinical advisors act as guides along your path to better health and performance. We remain invested in patient outcomes each step of the way.
After the age of 30, natural HGH production declines by roughly 14% per decade - exacerbating symptoms like weight gain, fatigue, decreased muscle mass and bone density. Left unchecked, these declines lead to increased frailty, loss of independence and decreased longevity. Our treatments aim to defy and reverse this aging process.
The falling GH epidemic occurs because the pituitary gland becomes impaired due to:
Deficient growth hormone levels lead to accelerated aging through:
We directly address declining hormone levels fueling the aging process through gold standard testing, precise deficiencies diagnosis, and customized treatment plans for regeneration, renewal and peak performance.
While often associated with illegal performance enhancement, HGH therapy is actually FDA-approved to treat growth hormone deficiency that causes short stature in children. When prescribed properly by a doctor, HGH helps children reach an average adult height they may not have attained otherwise due to the deficiency.
While growth hormone represents a foundational pillar of vitality and youthfulness, other key hormones significantly contribute to the aging process. Our multi-hormone treatment strategies achieve full-spectrum rejuvenation and restoration.
The primary male sex hormone plays a crucial role in sexual health, muscle growth, bone density, red blood cell production, and cognitive abilities. Like HGH, testosterone declines with age if left untreated.
Thyroid hormones regulate mood, energy levels, body temperature, menstrual cycles, and weight. Imbalances lead to headaches, constipation, fatigue, and unexplained weight gain.
Melatonin helps control sleep and wake cycles. Deficiencies lead to insomnia and impaired immune function. Melatonin naturally drops in aging.
DHEA represents a precursor to testosterone and estrogen, carrying anti-aging properties. DHEA naturally drops up to 80% from peak by age 75 if not supplemented.
