SEMORELIN TREATMENT OPTION
HOW DOES SERMORELIN WORK?
Sermorelin is able to stimulate the production and release of growth hormone in a relatively straightforward way – it mimics growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH). You don’t need to know much about the endocrine system to guess what GHRH does – it causes the release of growth hormone. GHRH is normally released from another location within your brain called the neurosecretory nerve terminals of the arcuate neurons, and then it travels to the pituitary gland and interpreted. When it is administered in the form of semorelin however, the first step is skipped and flows through your bloodstream. Once there it binds to GHRH receptors all over the body, but especially on the pituitary gland. Like we said, the way semorelin works in the body is pretty straightforward. Ipamorelin on the other hand will take quite a bit more explanation.
SIDE EFFECTS OF SEMORELIN THERAPY:
Unlike hGH injections, which, although safe, can cause side effects, it is extremely rare for adults to develop adverse reactions to semorelin use. The most common side effect is injection site redness, pain, swelling, or irritation. These effects are short-lived, and typically stop occurring as the individual becomes adept at self-administering the injections.
Possible, but RARE, side effects of sermorelin use may include:
- Headache
- Dizziness
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Hives
- Flushing
- Sleepiness
- Hyperactivity
- Pale skin
COMBINED SEMORELIN AND IPAMORELIN TREATMENT OPTION
Semorelin mimics the body’s natural growth hormone releasing hormone Semorelin and Ipamorelin mimics the body’s natural growth hormone releasing hormone Ghrelin.
These two signaling molecules mimic natural hormones within the body to stimulate the release of growth hormone from the pituitary gland. Not only do they have the ability to stimulate the production and release of your own body’s growth hormone, but they are able to do so in a way that is safe and complementary with one another.
Both Semorelin and Ipamorelin are classified as secretagogues which are a substance that promotes secretion or release of a chemical messenger like a hormone. This means they promote the production and secretion of growth hormone from the hormone producing part of your brain called the pituitary gland. They accomplish this task in vastly different, yet complementary ways.
This synergistic effect is exactly why practitioners are seeing incredible results combining these two peptides and their combined ability to stimulate growth hormone production.
- Both can be used to treat growth hormone deficiencies.
- A prescription is required for either ipamorelin or semorelin.
- Both are growth hormone releasing peptides (GHRP).
- Sermorelin and ipamorelin stimulate different receptors (parts of the brain)
- Both can boost the release of human growth hormone.
- Both are used to effectively treat growth hormone deficiencies by stimulating the production and release of HGH.
- Both stimulate the secretion of human growth hormone with few if any negative side effects.
- Both effectively have the same benefits.
- Technically, both are a type of growth hormone, but more accurately they are what is known as GHRPs, or growth hormone releasing peptides, sometimes also referred to as human growth hormone-releasing hormones, (GHRH) or growth hormone releasing factors (GHRF).
The GHRPs are not exactly the same though.
WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF COMBINED SEMORELIN/IPAMORELIN THERAPY?
Sermorelin has been studied and shown to be effective in treating age-related growth hormone decline when used in combination with another GHRH, such as ipamorelin. Sermorelin combined with a pre-determined dose of ipamorelin has been shown to produce a longer lasting and more effective pulse of HGH.
Recent studies have found that concurrent administration of semorelin and ipamorelin is proven to provide a synergistic release of HGH from the pituitary.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SEMORELIN AND IPAMORELIN?
Sermorelin and Ipamorelin are pharmaceutical versions of the GHRH naturally produced by your body. Growth hormone-releasing hormones are large peptide hormones that differ from one another only in the number of amino acids, which can vary from 37 to 44. Both ipamorelin and semorelin are medications that are made to duplicate the action of the naturally occurring GHRH, Ghrelin. Ghrelin is a 28-amino-acid peptide that like ipamorelin and semorelin acts to increase growth hormone secretion.
Sermorelin is made up of 29 amino acids, therefore its chemical name is GRH 1-29. Ipamorelin is considered to be a somewhat milder GHRP than semorelin, chemically more similar to Hexarelin and GHRP6.
They react with different hormone receptors to stimulate HGH production and release. Because of those different receptors, they can stimulate different volumes of release, over different periods of time.
IPAMORELIN THERAPY OPTION
Ipamorelin is a pentapeptide comprised of amino acids and acts as a GHRP (Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide) In contrast to our typical GHRP’s used with Sermorelin, Ipamorelin does not significantly boost, cortisol, aldosterone, or acetylcholine levels. Patients on different GH secretagogue-based therapies have reported side effects such as jitters, cold sweats, or nervousness, which could be due to the impact of their treatment on cortisol levels. Because Ipamorelin does not have these effects, patients can benefit from just the positive aspects of HGH therapy, while keeping unwanted side effects at bay.
An important consideration for patients participating in a GH secretagogue-based therapy is whether it promotes an increase in the production of the enzyme ghrelin, which is undesirable for most patients. Keep in mind that ghrelin secretion stimulates hunger. However, ipamorelin does not increase ghrelin levels.
Another important difference is that ipamorelin does not significantly boost cortisol levels. Patients on different GH secretagogue-based therapies have reported side effects such as jitters, cold sweats, or nervousness, which could be due to the effects of their therapy on cortisol levels. Because ipamorelin does not have these effects, patients can benefit from just the positive aspects of GH therapy, while keeping unwanted side effects at bay.
BENEFITS OF IPAMORELIN:
Several studies have shown that the ability of ipamorelin to stimulate the pituitary gland and liver might elicit a number of physiological effects, including:
- Strengthening the joints and connective tissue
- Increasing the bone mass density and strength
- Improving skin tone
- Rejuvenating joints
- Increased adipose tissue (body fat) breakdown
Together, these characteristics suggest that ipamorelin can play a crucial role in slowing down the aging process.
HOW DOES IPAMORELIN WORK?
Ipamorelin acts in a completely different way to stimulate growth hormone release. To understand it fully, we need to quickly cover an entirely new hormone that we have yet to discuss called ghrelin. Ipamorelin mimics ghrelin in exactly the same way semorelin mimics GHRH. Ghrelin doesn’t get as much attention as some of the A-list hormones like insulin, growth hormone, testosterone, and estrogen, but it absolutely should. Only discovered in 1999, ghrelin has profound regulatory effects on your metabolism, including increasing or decreasing hunger, inhibiting stored fat breakdown, and perhaps most importantly for this article, the release of growth hormone.
A peptide that mimics ghrelin is able to initiate the release of growth hormone should be pretty easy. Ipamorelin binds to ghrelin receptors on the pituitary gland, switching them on in the same way that ghrelin naturally would. These on-switches are completely separate from the ones that semorelin activates, enabling them to work synergistically to accomplish the same task, and do so with no effect on the rest of your body’s hormones.
COMBINED IPAMORELIN AND CJC1295 TREATMENT OPTION
WHAT IS CJC-1295/IPAMORELIN?
Ipamorelin with CJC1295 is a newer option in Peptide Therapy. The combination of Ipamorelin and CJC-1295 is similar to that of our Sermorelin with the GHRP’s 6/2 with fewer side effects. And this combination has been shown to have a synergistic impact on stimulating GH and IGF-1 levels which will increase the clinical outcomes for our patients.
CJC-1295 has shown some fantastic results as a growth hormone releasing peptide (GHRP) analog. Not only has CJC-1295 demonstrated the potential to increase growth hormone and IGF-I secretion. CJC-1295 Stimulates (GHS) Growth Hormone Secretion and will keep a steady increase of Growth Hormone and IGF-1, without no increase in prolactin leading to fat loss, and increased protein synthesis thereby promoting growth and more.
CJC-1295 Therapy is a tetra-substituted, 30 amino acid, the primarily functioning in a growth hormone releasing peptide (GHRP) analog, One of the advantages of CJC-1295 over traditional GHRP or HGH is its ability to bio-conjugate with serum albumin, This increasing its half-life and therapeutic window, This accomplishes using protecting groups around the amino acids of GHRP typically susceptible to enzymatic degradation.
There is more benefit with CJC-1295 and its ability to promote slow wave and, (SWS) Slow Wave Sleep also known as the knockout or the Deep Sleep, this will help the body to produce more hormones while your sleep and is the portion of rest responsible for the level of muscle growth and memory retention. Also, Clinical studies have shown that a once-daily administration of CJC-1295 normalizes the response and can induce significantly deeper sleep.
Ipamorelin is one of several secretagogue met-enkephalin analogs that include unnatural D-amino acids. They were developed for their growth hormone releasing (GHR) activity, then called GH secretagogues. They lack opioid activity but are potent stimulators of GH release. These secretagogues are distinct from the growth hormone-releasing (GHR) or Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide (GHRP) in that they share no sequence relation and derive their function through action at a completely different receptor, the ghrelin receptor.
REPORTED BENEFITS CJC1295 WITH IPAMORELIN:
INCREASED SKIN ELASTICITY
IMPROVED COGNITIVE FUNCTION/MEMORY
IMPROVED BONE DENSITY
INCREASED MUSCLE MASS AND STRENGTH
DECREASE FAT TISSUE
HEIGHTENED SEXUAL FUNCTION
IMPROVED CARDIOVASCULAR HEALTH
IMPROVED LIPID PROFILE
PROMOTES SLOW WAVE SLEEP
GROWTH HORMONE REPLACEMENT PEPTIDE THERAPY FOR ANTI-AGING THERAPY
Growth hormone stimulating/peptide therapy is one of the most beneficial yet harmless treatments in the quickly growing area of medical care focused on harmoniously rejuvenating and restoring a more youthful appearance and functioning. The main goal is to stimulate the pituitary gland to raise the amount of HGH that is produced in the human body to the levels they were when you were 29 years old. By doing this, it gives you the benefit of reversing some effects of aging that are often harmful and age your appearance.
We can all look in the mirror and see what aging. Increasing HGH levels gives the metabolism gets a significant boost, stimulates stem cells inside the bone marrow, and promotes new cell generation in the tissue, skin, organs, brain and bones.
GROWTH HORMONE REPLACEMENT PEPTIDE THERAPY FOR IMPROVED SKIN APPEARANCE
Growth hormone stimulating/peptide therapy can assist in allowing you to maintain a far younger and healthier appearance. The treatment has gained a pretty significant positive reputation as being a restorer of youth, like the mythical fountain of youth. With the help of growth hormone stimulating/peptide therapy, you will undoubtedly find yourself feeling and looking better!
GROWTH HORMONE REPLACEMENT PEPTIDE THERAPY FOR WEIGHT LOSS
GROWTH HORMONE REPLACEMENT PEPTIDE THERAPY FOR ENHANCED IMMUNITY
Growth hormone has a profound effect on the immune system. Long-lasting boosts of immunity can be a result of regular injections of peptides. When peptides are inserted in the human body, they trigger your immune system to fight against viruses and bacteria. Peptide therapy can improve the immune function of the immunosuppressed and people who have regulated immune systems.
PEPTIDE OPTIONS
The injectable peptides are the only ones that Dr. Bloy believes to be beneficial in stimulating the release of GH needed and to get the results desired.
AOD 9604 (Anti Obesity Drug)
This peptide is a fragment of the Human Growth Hormone molecule that is directly responsible for fat loss. It works by mimicking the way natural Growth Hormone regulates fat metabolism but without the adverse effects on blood sugar or growth that is seen with Growth Hormone. Recent findings have shown, in addition to its fat loss properties, AOD 9604 processes many other regenerative properties associated with growth hormone, in osteoarthritis, hypercholesterolemia (high cholesterol), bone and cartilage repair.

Bremelanotide (PT-141) (For sexual health)
Bremelanotide improves sexual arousal and spontaneous erections and therefore effective in treating sexual dysfunction in both men (erectile dysfunction or impotence) and women (sexual arousal disorder). Unlike Viagra and other related medications, it does not act upon the vascular system, but directly increases sexual desire via the nervous system. Bremelanotide (PT-141: Libido Booster)
Bremelanotide improves sexual arousal and spontaneous erections and therefore effective in treating sexual dysfunction in both men (erectile dysfunction or impotence) and women (sexual arousal disorder). Unlike Viagra and other related medications, it does not act upon the vascular system but directly increases sexual desire via the nervous system.
Cerebrolysin
Cerebrolysin is a nootropic peptide that possesses neuroprotective and neurotrophic repair properties. Cerebrolysin has been proven to have nerve growth action causing peripheral and central neuronal stimulation. It improves efficiency within the brain’s metabolic processes.
CJC 1295 and Ipamorelin
These are two very potent Growth Hormone Releasing Hormones (GHRH), that stimulate the cells of the pituitary to secrete and produce more Human Growth Hormone. It is a far more natural way to induce HGH production, with far less concern for side effects. These peptides are capable of improving sleep and recovery, enhancing skin health, and burning visceral (organ) and abdominal fat.
DSIP (Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide)
Delta sleep-inducing peptide is a neuropeptide that induces delta EEG activity and reduced motor activities, or “deep sleep.” It also works in conjunction with other pituitary hormones such as the adrenal hormone adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH), and the thyroid hormone TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone). It is also abundant in the gastrointestinal system and in the pancreas, further enhancing a calming and deep sleep affect.
Epithalon
Epithalon is responsible to regulate metabolism in the pineal gland region of the brain. It also regulates the sensitivity of hypothalamus to its natural hormonal influences and regulates melatonin. Epithalon increases a person’s resistance to emotional stress and also acts as an antioxidant. It has been shown to lengthen telomeres in human cells, which is related to longevity.
Follistatin
Follistatin is a naturally occurring peptide and a potent inhibitor of myostatin. Myostatin breaks muscle down, therefore inhibition of myostatin will result in increased muscle mass.
GHK-Cu (Anti-Aging)
GHK-Cu can promote activation of wound healing, attraction of immune cells, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, stimulation of collagen and improvement in skin and hair growth. GHK-Cu is used in cosmetics as a reparative and anti-aging ingredient.
GHK-Cu promotes quicker wound healing and stimulates increased collagen. GHK-Cu attracts immune cells, antioxidants, and has an anti-inflammatory effect. We offer two separate compounded peptide formulations; one for improving fine lines, wrinkles, promoting more youthful skin. Most clients will notice a 35% decrease in fine lines and wrinkles and a 70% increase in collagen after 3 months of continual use.
GHRP 6 (Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide 6)
GHRP 6 is a true HGH secretagogue, which means it stimulates the body’s own secretion of HGH. Human Growth hormone has been shown in studies to promote lean body mass and reduce adiposity (fat). GHRP 6 acts at the ghrelin receptor which stimulates appetite. In therapy GHRP 6 is used to stimulate growth hormone production whilst increasing body mass.
GHRP 2 (Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide 2)
GHRP 2 can stimulate the pituitary to increase secretion of GH, stimulating ghrelin receptors to promote appetite. The main effects of GHRP 2 are GH secretion, appetite enhancement, fat mass decrease and muscle mass increase, lowering of cholesterol level, skin and bone strengthening, protection of the liver and anti-inflammatory action.
Selank and Semax
Selank and Semax are neuroprotective peptides that help with concentration, motivation, curiosity and curiosity. They can help with anxiety and depression while providing a calming effect.
Tesamorelin
Tesamorelin is a potent growth hormone releasing hormone peptide that has been shown to significantly increase IGF-1 levels. Tesamorelin has been shown to improve cognitive function, decrease carotid artery thickness, lower visceral (organ) adipose fat, and lower the inflammatory marker C-reactive proteins (CRP). Tesamorelin (Advanced GH Protocol) is one of the most potent growth hormone-releasing hormone peptide that has been shown to significantly increase IGF-1 levels on average of 181 micrograms/liter. Tesamorelin has been shown to increase energy and stamina, decrease visceral and adipose fat, increase lean muscle, improve cognition, and lower inflammatory markers. Tesamorelin can also reduce triglyceride levels.
Thymosin alpha-1 (Immune Booster)
Thymosin alpha-1 is secreted from the thymus gland and is responsible for restoring immune function. This peptide is used in the treatment of hepatitis B and C. Additional possible indications are malignant melanoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, drug-resistant tuberculosis, and Di George’s syndrome as well as any chronic cancer or viral disease. Thymosin alpha-1 is also used for chronic fatigue and Lyme disease.
Thymosin alpha 1 is produced naturally by the thymus gland. The thymus is where immune cells known as T cells mature and are released. This peptide has been proven to be effective for acute and chronic infections, exhibits antibacterial,antiviral, and antifungal properties, and protection against oxidative stress. Thymosin Alpha-1 has been used to treat medical conditions including Rheumatoid arthritis,Lupus,Lyme disease,Chronic fatigue,Hepatitis,HIV,and immune dysfunction.
Thymosin beta-4
Thymosin is a hormone secreted from the thymus, also important for the immune system. Thymosin-beta4 has a role in tissue repair, and has been found to play an important role in protection, regeneration and remodeling of injured or damaged tissues. Thymosin beta-4 (Recovery and Repair)
Thymosin is a hormone secreted from the thymus, also important for a healthy immune system. Thymosin-beta4 has a role in tissue repair and has been found to play an important role in protection, regeneration, and remodeling of injured or damaged tissues.
Sermorelin (Increase GH & IGF-1 Levels)
Sermorelin is the oldest of the growth hormone-releasing peptides. Like HGH, Sermorelin benefits include decreased body fat reduction, increase in lean muscle, deeper sleep, improved recovery, increased sex drive, and improved cognition.
This peptide is responsible for the regulation of growth hormones, also known as a Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone (GHRH). It triggers the production of growth hormones in the pituitary gland, responsible for early childhood development. Sermorelin also impacts metabolism in adults, which can affect weight gain later on.
When the body doesn’t have enough of these GHRHs during childhood, it can lead to stunted growth, poor muscle and bone development, and increase the risk for serious diseases. Sermorelin triggers the growth of new tissues and bone even in adults. This hormone therapy is popular among athletes and bodybuilders.
Ipamorelin
This peptide is responsible for a number of growth hormones and organ functions. Primarily, ipamorelin can boost the production of testosterone. This will have a direct impact on muscle mass and function. Early studies have revealed that this peptide treatment also improves weight loss, immune system health, and lowers inflammation.
Improvement in the quality of sleep has also been observed. This makes ipamorelin an excellent, comprehensive therapy for athletes and those struggling to get into better shape. All of these factors (muscle functionality, immunity, and rest) are important for staying fit and healthy.
Ibutamoren – MK-677 (Increase GH & IGF-1 Levels)
Ibutamoren promotes the secretion of growth hormone and IGF-1. This peptide increases GH levels with little or no increase in other hormones including cortisol. Ibutamoren is frequently used to increase lean muscle, decrease body fat, and for repair and recovery. This peptide is taken orally once daily.
BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound)
Another peptide with regenerative properties. Synthetically made, but found naturally in gastric juices, BPC-157 has been investigated for healing. Research shows applicability from stomach and intestinal issues to sports injuries.
BPC 157, has been shown in research to including accelerate tendon-to-bone healing and superior healing of damaged ligaments. In addition, BPC 157 seems to protect organs and to prevent ulcers of the stomach. This peptide is also shown to decrease pain in damaged areas. Those who suffer from discomfort due to muscle sprains, tears and damage may benefit from treatment with this peptide. It can also be helpful in improving the healing after burns by increasing blood flow to damaged tissues.
CJC-1295 & CJC-1295/Ipamorelin (Increase GH & IGF-1 Levels)
These are two very potent Growth Hormone Releasing Hormones (GHRH), that stimulate the cells of the pituitary to secrete and produce more Human Growth Hormone. These two peptides, when used together, have shown to increase growth hormone levels 5 times more than when administered alone. It is a far more natural way to induce HGH production, with far less concern for side effects compared to Synthetic GH usage. This peptide combination is capable of increasing lean muscle mass, improving sleep quality and promote recovery, enhance skin health, appearance, increase libido, burning visceral and abdominal fat. We advise a at least 6 months of treatment for this protocol. It is given daily, 5 days out of the week with 2 days off. CJC 1295 has 10 times the fat burning effects than other peptides.
CJC1295 has shown some amazing results as a growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH). It is actually a synthetic copy of one the body normally produces. As an adolescent, the body releases it to speed production of growth hormones.
Adults gradually see the production of GHRHs as they get older, supplementing them can lead to improved muscle gains. This is a natural process and is completely unrelated to other HGH products. You won’t see this peptide solution in your supplement store, and it expensive to buy outside of prescriptions.
How effective is CJC 1295? Typical results can range from 2-10x growth hormone production. It is administered as an injection weekly and can last for up to six days. This makes it ideal for competitive athletes who need that boost, but don’t want to have to deal with needle pricks and soreness every day.
Melanotan 2 (Natural Tan without the Sun)
Melanotan 2 is a peptide used to stimulate melanocyte production and induce skin tanning. It also offers protection from UV rays. Users of this peptide report a positive effect on libido. There is a mild positive fat-mobilization effect and appetite suppressor effect as well.
TESTING
HOW ARE HGH LEVELS TESTED?
Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD) in adults can only be diagnosed using specialized blood tests.
HGH levels can fluctuate greatly throughout the day, so rather than specifying an exact “normal” HGH level for adults, doctor’s speak in terms of a “normal range.”
Instead of a test that measures the HGH level in your blood at any given time, to test for GHD in adults, we use a test called IGF-1.
IGF-1 BLOOD TEST
WHY DO I NEED TO HAVE MY HGH LEVEL TESTED FIRST?
There are basically three reasons doctors will test for HGH levels:
- To diagnose a GHD
- To evaluate pituitary function
- To monitor whether treatment with Growth Hormone is adequate
WHAT IS THE NORMAL GROWTH HORMONE LEVEL FOR ADULTS?
Unlike other some other hormones, HGH levels are not constant in the blood, but can rise and fall during the day. Doctors prefer to speak of a normal range for HGH levels in adults, rather than pinpoint and an exact normal level. A normal hormone range can also vary with advancing age. Your doctor will always take everything into account and assess your blood level accordingly.
Generally, optimal IGF-1 levels range in the 230 to 270 nanogram per deciliter range.
Normal ranges of IGF-1 are measured in nanograms per milliliter, abbreviated ng/mL. This is the unit of measure most commonly used to express drug testing in urine and blood.
Determining what is a normal level of HGH in adults is complex. Our expert practitioners do not look at just your age and decide what should be the normal range, rather we take everything into account – your age, gender, diet, symptoms, and lifestyle – to determine what is the optimal range for you. Once your practitioner determines what your unique optimal level is, the practitioner can tailor treatments that will get you in the sweet spot, allowing optimal performance and well-being regardless of your age.
HOW DO WE TEST FOR GROWTH HORMONE (HGH) LEVELS?
Since growth hormone levels can and do change throughout the day, instead of a test that measures the HGH level in your blood at any given time, we test for the level of IGF-1.
IGF-1 is an endocrine hormone produced by the liver that, along with growth hormone, helps promote normal bone and tissue growth and development. The IGF-1 test is used:
- To help diagnose growth hormone deficiency
- To sometimes diagnose growth hormone excess
- To evaluate pituitary function
- To monitor the effectiveness of treatment
During the test a blood sample will be drawn from a vein in your arm. Since HGH levels fluctuate throughout the day, we do not test for HGH, but rather IGF-1. IGF-1 mirrors HGH excesses and deficiencies, but the level in the blood is stable throughout the day, making it a more useful indicator of average HGH levels than testing for HGH.
TO PREPARE FOR THE IGF-1 TESTING THAT WE DO:
You may be asked to refrain from taking supplements of Biotin (also known as vitamin B7, B8, vitamin H, or coenzyme R), for 72 hrs prior to taking the test.
Certain medicines can affect your growth hormone test results, such as corticosteroids and estrogen (including birth control pills). You may be asked to stop taking these medications prior to the HGH testing.
DRUGS THAT CAN INCREASE HGH LEVELS (and indirectly the IG-1levels) INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:
- Amphetamines
- Dopamine
- Methyldopa
- Estrogens
- Histamine
- Nicotinic acid
- Arginine
- Glucagon
- Insulin
DRUGS THAT CAN DECREASE HGH LEVELS INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:
Corticosteroids
Phenothiazines which can inhibit dopamine (often used for psychiatric conditions to reduce hallucinations)
Certain medicines can affect your growth hormone test results, such as corticosteroids and estrogen (including birth control pills).
EVALUATING YOUR GROWTH HORMONE TEST RESULTS?
If the results of your HGH test or tests reveal that your growth hormone levels fall below the normal ranges for your age, weight and gender, you may be a candidate for growth hormone replacement therapy.
For adults whose HGH blood test results indicate they have low HGH, there are many life-changing benefits that can be achieved with HGH stimulating therapies.
