Human growth hormone (HGH), also known as somatotropin, is a vital hormone produced in the pituitary gland that plays a key role in cell regeneration, tissue growth, brain function, muscle and bone strength, metabolism, and overall health and vitality. As we age, HGH production declines significantly, leading to undesirable effects like weight gain, decreased muscle mass, reduced bone density, lack of energy, impaired cognition, and more.
Restoring depleted HGH levels through physician-prescribed therapy provides immense benefits:
Simply put, optimized HGH brings back the vitality of youth so you can feel and function at your best regardless of age. The earlier treatment begins, the more dramatic the improvements.
The first step is testing blood serum HGH levels, ideally paired with IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor) testing for complete accuracy. Normal HGH range is 500-1000 ng/ mL for adults, significantly higher for youth. Below 300 ng/mL indicates deficiency, but many patients show improvements from therapy at suboptimal 400-500 levels.
Symptoms signaling HGH decline include:
Evaluate your HGH status today through Renewal Hormone Clinic’ comprehensive blood analysis. We also assess nutrient deficiencies, organ function, blood cell counts, and key hormone levels (testosterone, thyroid, etc.) for complete wellness insight.
If tests reveal inadequate HGH, Renewal Hormone Clinic custom-tailors a treatment plan to meet your individual needs.
After confirming diagnosis, we educate patients about proper injectable HGH usage, storage, dosage tracking, and schedule for maximum consistency and benefit.
Most patients self-administer subcutaneous HGH injections at home 3-7 times weekly, rotating abdominal, thigh, and arm sites. Leaner individuals may require daily micro-dosing. We teach proper sterile technique to avoid infection and provide starter packs with supplies for home injections (needles, alcohol wipes, sharps container, tracking log).
Weekly phase-in of full dosage allows the body to adjust without fluid retention or other side effects. Symptoms typically improve within weeks and peak benefits hit around 3-6 months.
Renewal Hormone Clinic closely monitors your treatment progress through follow-up blood tests, body composition scans, symptom surveys, and consultations to continually optimize your protocol. We promptly inform you of needed dosage titrations or addition of complementary therapies like testosterone, vitamin D, or thyroid hormone.
HGH therapy lasts years or lifelong to sustain benefits. Cost runs $500-1000 monthly depending on dose. While not covered by insurance, flexible payment plans make treatment feasible.
Restoring HGH to youthful ranges provides transformative improvements:
- 5-15 lb weight/fat loss within 6 months - Gain of 4 lb muscle mass - Reduced wrinkles and tighter skin - Thicker, shinier hair and strong nails - Healthier cholesterol & blood pressure - Enhanced athletic performance - Faster injury healing - Improved immunity & disease resistance
- Better focus, memory retention, quicker thinking - Elevated mood, confidence, emotional stability - Deeper, more restorative sleep - Heightened motivation and productivity
While often associated with athletic doping, HGH therapy was originally developed in 1985 to treat growth hormone deficiency in children. Today it is FDA-approved to treat disorders including childhood growth failure and muscle-wasting disease, expanding treatment options for many patients.
Certain lifestyle factors potentiate HGH therapy’s rejuvenating effects:
- Strength training stimulates muscle growth - Moderate cardio optimizes fat-burning - Yoga, Pilates improve flexibility, balance
- High protein intake aids muscle building - Low glycemic carbs avoid blood sugar spikes - Healthy fats from olive oil, nuts, avocado
- 7-9 hours sleep nightly - Stress management through meditation, socializing - Supplements like resveratrol, magnesium, zinc
We provide comprehensive diet and fitness guidance tailored to your needs and abilities for maximal treatment synergy. Tracking progress incentivizes sticking to healthy regimens. Having an encouraging community fosters success.

When properly dosed HGH just restores natural levels that decline with age. No negative effects occur (versus steroid abuse), making years long treatment quite safe under medical supervision.
No evidence shows HGH increasing cancer risk. On the contrary, data reveals it may protect against many cancers through enhanced immunity.
Missing just a week causes no major setback. Going longer without can reverse improvements until dosing resumes. Maintaining consistency is key.
