HGH
Technology
Somatotropin, the medical name for Human Growth Hormone, is produced in the
laboratory using technology that copies the natural growth hormone molecule.
It produces a 100% physically, chemically, and biologically identical molecule
to the HGH produced by the pituitary gland. This technology is known as recombinant
DNA technology.
HGH is a FDA-Approved Drug
In August, 1996, the FDA approved Human Growth Hormone for use in adult patients
for the first time. Before this approval, it was only authorized for use to
promote growth in shortstatured children with HGH deficiencies. Now HGH can
be prescribed for hormone-deficient adults as well as to delay the aging process.
Restoring the body with youthful hormone levels is an important key to living
a stronger, healthier, and happier life.
Injectable HGH versus Oral HGH
As HGH is a large and complex protein, it is not absorbed intact and must be
taken by injection. If HGH were taken by mouth it would be digested in the stomach
and become inactivated. Injection of the Human Growth Hormone bypasses the digestive
system completely. This injectable HGH requires a prescription.
Signs of Human Growth Hormone Deficiency
The psychological and emotional symptoms of HGH deficiency include a reduced
sense of well being, low energy, low vitality, decreased capacity for work,
and emotional lability, which encompasses mood swings, anxiety, depression,
and increased social isolation. Important physical signs include increased body
fat, especially around the waist (apple-shaped rather than pear shaped), decrease
in muscle mass, and thin, wrinkled, or prematurely aged skin. Other symptoms
may consist of the following: reduced cardiac performance, poor sleep, decreased
muscle mass and strength, and little to no sex drive.
Aging Process
Aging takes place at a more rapid pace when your hormone levels start to decrease.
Once the hormone levels begin dropping, your body starts to change. You tend
to gain weight easier, you’re not as athletic, you tend to be more uptight about
things, and you’re depressed more frequently. These are all signs that your
hormone levels are getting lower. Natural hormones are protective of normal
bodily functions, and aging is related to the loss of these hormones. Replacing
the hormone level to youthful levels delays the aging process. HGH is said to
be the “Fountain of Youth.”
FAQ
Q. How do I get started?
A. Follow the directions on www.HGHPharm.com
Q. How long will it take before I start to see some
results?
A. You can start to see and feel results as early
as one week. Sometimes a little longer. The longer you are on this type of therapy
the better your chances of seeing and feeling more benefits.
Q. How do I know if this therapy is right for you?
A. We are networked with certain diagnostic laboratories
in Hawaii and the mainland. These laboratories handle and perform all of the
required blood tests to determine where your hormone levels are and where they
should be.
Q. How do I get my prescription?
A. Once we receive your laboratory test results, one
of our physicians will review that information along with the information collected
from the initial history and physical evaluation. If appropriate, a course of
HGH can then be prescribed and initiated.
Q. How long does this process take?
A. It will take about a week and a half: this will
allow time to have the blood tests performed and have the test results sent
back to us.
Q. Where do I get my HGH?
A. Follow the directions on www.HGHPharm.com
**NOTE: Human Growth Hormone is available only by prescription
and regulated by the Federal Food and Drug Association. In order for our physicians
to prescribe HGH to you they must establish a doctor-patient relationship with
you. This is to make sure the therapy chosen is right for you.
