Human Hormones

Treatment with HGH

Growth Hormone Deficiency is the disorder characterized by the inadequate production of growth hormones. This disorder affects all ages from different walks of life. The condition’s probable causative agents are genetic mutations of a specific gene responsible for hormone secretions, congenital abnormalities involving the master gland, tumors in cranial region, radiation therapy, trauma, autoimmune or idiopathic. This can be an alarming problem for most of us due to its devastating signs and symptoms. The advent of technology made it possible to have hormones as the means of therapy for this type of disorders. The usual question falls down to safety and effectiveness.

Diagnosis of this disorder is a complicated process. Normally, blood analysis of blood samples is use in order to assess the hormonal levels. This is not the only test for the diagnosis of the disease and there are other criteria present in aid of disease diagnosis. Some of these tests are Auxologic criteria, which involves body measurements, Indirect hormonal criteria, measuring the HGH stimulated liver hormone IGF-1, Direct hormonal criteria, measuring GH in multiple blood samples to determine any patterns or variations of secretion. There are cases in which the criteria are partially met by the patient and if this happens, the patient still benefits from the treatment.

Individuals having this illness experiences reduction of muscle mass and strength, bone mass and strength, poor physical, mental, and social energy, impairment of concentration and loss of memory, depression, induction body fat formation and increase cholesterol levels. All of these symptoms are product of the growth hormone deficiency. The primary hormone responsible for growth in our body is the Human Growth Hormone or HGH. Our Pituitary Gland or known as the “Master Gland” secretes this hormone and its peek is during childhood. The hormonal level gradually declines as an individual gains age. The hormone is responsible for promoting calcium retention for bone development, and strengthening and increasing of bone mineralization. It increases protein synthesis in our body thereby increasing production of new cells and promotion of cellular repair. The hormone also increases muscle mass through the creation of new muscle cells. This promotes muscle cell development and evident for those engange in bodybuilding. It promotes lipolysis, which results in the reduction of adipose tissue or body fat. These are some of the functions of this hormone.

However due to the deficiency of growth hormone, signs and symptoms of the disease occur. This can now be resolve by the administration of an injectable growth hormone, HGH. This goes directly into the blood stream and ensures fast and effective action. The hormone alleviates the symptoms by countering the effects of the disease and brings back the natural body functioning. HGH works the same way as the normal growth hormone. It is safe and effective but administration always depends on the dose prescription in order to prevent any complications. Complications like Acromegaly and abdominal distention are extremely rare and believed to be a product of excess hormone administration. HGH hormone works best for treatment of the disease, promotion of body functioning and prevention of the decline’s body alterations.
