Human growth hormone (HGH), also known as somatotropin, is a vital hormone produced in the pituitary gland that stimulates growth, cell reproduction and regeneration. As we age, HGH production declines leading to undesirable effects. HGH therapy can help restore optimal levels to promote anti-aging benefits and an improved quality of life.
Natural HGH secretion diminishes with age, often starting in the 30s. This gradual decline is due to factors like:
Restoring HGH to youthful ranges with medical treatment can help reverse this age-related deterioration.
Indications that your HGH levels are suboptimal include:
If experiencing several of these effects of aging earlier than expected, HGH therapy may help get to the root cause.
Under the supervision of our highly-skilled hormone doctors at Equilibrium Hormone Institute, personalized HGH therapy offers multiple advantages:

While often associated with performance enhancement and anti-aging, HGH therapy was originally developed in 1985 as a treatment for children with growth hormone deficiency to help them achieve normal height and development. Today it remains an FDA-approved medication to treat diagnosed growth hormone deficiencies in both children and adults.
While HGH therapy provides enormous benefits, optimizing your lifestyle habits creates an environment to help it work most effectively. We suggest:
Eating more plants and high-quality proteins while limiting sugar generates lasting energy minus inflammation. Some top picks include avocado, nuts, seeds, wild salmon, beans and cruciferous vegetables.
Short bursts of maximum effort like sprints or bodyweight circuits trigger HGH release while increasing fitness. Even 10-20 minutes a few days per week makes a big difference long-term.
Getting 7-9 hours nightly, ideally before midnight, allows critical tissue repair and regeneration helping HGH synthesis. Developing strong sleep hygiene via a routine is key.
Managing emotional overwhelm through sufficient rest, community connection, light exercise, yoga, or meditation helps balance hormones for peak wellness.
Making positive lifestyle tweaks magnifies and sustains the improvements from HGH therapy. Our doctors provide thorough, individualized suggestions during your consultation.
