What Is Growth Hormone Therapy?
Human growth hormone (HGH) plays a crucial role in regulating metabolism and facilitating overall body growth. This hormone is primarily produced in the pituitary gland. As part of the natural aging process, its production gradually decreases, leading to potential growth hormone deficiencies. HGH production typically starts to reduce in early adulthood. External factors, such as insufficient sleep, stress, poor diet, and lack of physical activity, can also affect HGH levels. Generally, by their mid-30s to early 40s, most adults produce about 50% less HGH. Some of the common symptoms of adult growth hormone deficiency include:
- Diminished muscle mass
- Decreased bone density
- Impaired cardiac function
- Reduced insulin sensitivity
- Decline in skin elasticity
- Fatigue
- Sexual dysfunction
- Increased fat deposits
- Poor memory
To help boost HGH levels and restore balance, Vita Nova Anti-Aging and Rejuvenation Center offers growth hormone therapy. For those suspecting hormonal imbalances, a consultation with Dr. Francisco Cardona, a board-certified internal medicine physician, is available at our Carlsbad, NM office.
How Does Growth Hormone Therapy Work?
To assess if you are experiencing a growth hormone deficiency, a growth hormone stimulation test may be conducted. Growth hormone therapy typically involves daily injections. Dr. Cardona offers the convenience of administering this treatment at home. However, for those uncomfortable with self-injection, Dr. Cardona also provides this service at our Carlsbad, NM office.
Regular follow-up appointments, usually every 4 – 8 weeks, are important. During these visits, Dr. Cardona will track your HGH levels, bone density, and other metabolic functions to fine-tune your treatment dosage as necessary. Over time, you should observe enhancements in your physical strength, energy levels, mood, sexual drive, and overall health and well-being.
