Human growth hormone (HGH) is a peptide hormone produced in the pituitary gland that plays a key role in growth, cell repair and metabolism. As we age, HGH production declines leading to undesirable effects like decreased muscle mass, increased body fat, reduced bone density, lack of energy and diminished skin texture and elasticity. HGH therapy can help counteract these age-related changes by restoring growth hormone levels.
HGH therapy involves injections of bioidentical human growth hormone to increase levels back to what they were in early adulthood. When administered under medical supervision, HGH therapy offers an array of benefits:
At Harmony Hormone Clinic in Winter Haven, FL, we offer customized HGH therapy programs tailored to each patient's unique needs and goals. Our board-certified medical providers specialize in hormone optimization and anti-aging treatments.
The process starts with comprehensive lab testing to accurately evaluate your hormone levels including growth hormone and IGF-1. This establishes your individual baseline to guide proper dosing and expectations.
Next, a physical exam and medical history helps identify any contraindications or special considerations. Our providers review your information, recommend an appropriate treatment plan, and explain all the details so you can make an informed decision.
If you decide to proceed, injections are self-administered 3-5 times per week. We teach you how to properly reconstitute and inject the HGH to maximize convenience and results. Ongoing lab tests, progress evaluations, and dosage adjustments ensure optimization.
