subject: New Uses for HGH Therapy [print this page] Human growth hormone therapy is not exactly a new thing. In fact, physicians have been using HGH therapy for over sixty years to boost development in children that exhibit slow growth and function. Only twenty years ago did other possible uses for HGH come to light, and those uses are actually meant for adults.
When we turn thirty, our body begins to slowly decline in production of our own natural human growth hormone. This hormone is what helps us build muscle mass and recover from injuries. As our bodies stop producing the hormone, we begin to see sagging skin and wrinkles, graying hair or balding, weakened muscles, and a decline in sexual appetite. Physicians have discovered that HGH stimulation can reverse some of these signs of aging, even causing patients to appear up to twenty years younger.
When the therapy was introduced to a test group of patients, the first sign that the HGH treatment was working was a marked decrease in weight and body mass. Over seventy percent of these patients also reported an improvement in muscle performance. The results are conclusive. Most patients also reported fewer wrinkles, better skin tone, thicker hair, and an improved sex drive. Even memory and brain function improved with the release of more human growth hormones.
There are several different therapy courses available. Many people will choose to promote the production of their own HGH by taking supplements that enhance the natural hormones in their bodies. If you find that your HGH levels are too low for these supplements to help, then you can choose to follow a course of treatment that involves the injection of a synthetic HGH into your system. This injection must be prescribed by your doctor, and it will be administered every two to three weeks. Most patients reported improvements as early as one month into the treatment. The treatments can be six months to a year in length.
As with any drug, you should be careful not to abuse the HGH therapy. Your physician should be aware of your dosing schedule at all times. You run the risk of dangerous side effects if you get too excited about your results and increase your dose without the approval from your physician. Mild side effects can occur, even when you are using the treatments correctly. These include redness and swelling at the injection sites, as well as some irritability or depression.
