Human growth hormone (HGH) is an essential hormone produced by the pituitary gland that plays a crucial role in growth, cell regeneration, and metabolism. As we age, HGH production naturally declines, leading to a growth hormone deficiency that can negatively impact quality of life.
Catching and addressing an HGH deficiency early is key to regaining health and vitality.
Getting tested proactively allows us to establish a baseline level while aging patients can see if their IGF-1 levels have dropped below normal. A simple blood test can determine if you are a candidate for growth hormone replacement therapy. Our knowledgeable staff can walk you through the quick and painless testing process. We work with labs throughout the Raymondville area for your convenience.
While good nutrition, exercise, sleep and stress management help boost natural HGH production, lifestyle interventions may not be enough for those experiencing more severe deficiencies. HGH injections can powerfully supplement what the body fails to produce on its own, leading to amazing benefits.
HGH injections have been safely used for over 2 decades to reverse the effects of aging. Clinical studies consistently demonstrate impressive outcomes from continuous long-term treatment.
With extensive specialized training and expertise, our experienced medical team develops fully customized treatment plans tailored to your unique health profile and goals.
If struggling with any of the issues outlined above, we first need to determine if a growth hormone deficiency exists. A combination of physical exam, medical history, blood work, special stimulation testing and imaging are used to accurately diagnose.
These tests evaluate the pituitary's capacity to produce growth hormone in response to a medication-induced trigger. Poor response suggests a deficiency.
As specialists, we are experts in intricate protocols and can perform complex stimulation testing in-house when required.
Brain MRIs check the structure of the pituitary and surrounding areas. Atrophy, tumors or lesions would affect HGH production. Helps identify injury or damage.
Once a deficiency confirmed, HGH therapy provides the missing hormone the body requires for optimal wellness.
If testing confirms inadequate growth hormone secretion, we develop your customized replenishment plan involving daily HGH shots.
With an individualized approach, advanced diagnostics and precision dosing - our clinic offers Raymondville residents unparalleled therapy.
Despite being controversial, HGH therapy has been shown in some studies to help build muscle mass and bone density in older adults. However, it requires daily injections and close medical supervision due to potential side effects like joint pain, edema, and insulin resistance. More research is still needed on its long-term safety and efficacy.
