Human Growth Hormone Deficiency Testing: How Diagnosis Works

HGH Deficiency is a major issue which can have a significant impact on your health and well-being. Most people don't even realize that they are suffering from Human Growth Hormone Deficiency, because many of the symptoms are simply mistaken for the aging process.

Every person has their own unique need for Human Growth Hormone, and some people are more sensitive to its deficiency than others. There are two requirements that need to be met in order to qualify for Bio-Identical HGH Hormone Replacement Therapy:

SEROSTIM®:

Serostim® (recombinant human growth hormone) works by interacting with specific cells to restore and build lean body mass (LBM). LBM includes muscle, organ tissue (excluding fat), and body fluids.

It is the only growth hormone approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of AIDS wasting or cachexia. Serostim® is mammalian cell-derived and produced using recombinant technology.

Clinical trials show that Serostim® has been effective in the treatment of AIDS wasting or cachexia. FDA approval is based on clinical studies up to 12 weeks in duration that analyzed body weight and lean body mass as an intermediate measure of Serostim®'s efficacy for AIDS wasting. A further study is underway to evaluate the full impact of Serostim® on patients' physical endurance and quality of life.

What to Expect in the First Six Months of Bio-Identical HGH Hormone Replacement Therapy

One important thing to know about Human Growth Hormone Replacement Therapy is that it doesn't work overnight. Many benefits will take months to manifest, but others will start to appear after only a few injections. The following is a loose guideline regarding when you should actually start feeling the benefits of certain aspects of HGH Injection therapy.

Benefits of HGH Hormone Replacement Therapy in the First Month of Treatment

During the first month, most of the benefits that you will likely experience are related to your psychology and your energy level. Even though you won't be any stronger, you will start to notice that you can work out longer and walk farther when you exercise, and you will be able to make it through the average day with more energy than you had before.

HGH Injections will also have a positive impact upon your sleeping pattern, and it will be easier to rest more soundly. Healthy Human Growth Hormone Levels and sleep are tightly interwoven. Likely, your fading HGH Production is making it harder to sleep, and your poor sleep is further impacting your production of the vital HGH Hormone.

In this initial month, Human Growth Hormone will also help you perceive the world in a more positive light. Human Growth Hormone helps your brain operate more efficiently, encouraging the brain to produce signals for happiness more easily and softening the affects of negative experiences on your mind.

Benefits of Human Growth Hormone Injections in the Second Month of Treatment

In the second month of Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy, you will continue to experience more positive physiological effects, and you will also start to see some minor changes in the physical appearance of your body. It takes two months of HGH Injections for the muscles of the body to visibly change as a result of treatment. During this second month, your muscles will begin to noticeably be more toned.

You will also start to see the benefits of HGH upon body fat as you step on the scale, because the changes in metabolism will start to actively burn fat, causing you to lose weight. If you combine Human Growth Hormone with a healthy diet and exercise, your actual weight loss may be minor, but changes in your body-fat ratio will have a noticeable impact on your aesthetic shape.

Other aesthetic changes can take place during this second month of treatment as well. Many patients will experience changes in skin tone during the second month. This is for three primary reasons. First, the increase in muscle tone will smooth out wrinkles and lines. Second, HGH has the capacity to strengthen collagen underneath the skin, keeping the outer layers of the skin drawn more closely to the underlying tissue. Third, healthy Human Growth Hormone Balance improves water balance, causing the skin cells to grow more full and robust, reducing the space between cells and producing a smoother look and feel. The benefits to the skin also extend to the hair and nails during this period, and your nails may become firmer and your hair may start to become both smoother and fuller.

During this period, you will likely experience changes in your sexual interest and ability. Because the body is able to more efficiently distribute hormones and nutrients, it will have more resources left over to improve your sexual vitality. Your improved energy level and attitude will also help you become more predisposed to sexual activity simply because you will have significantly improved energy levels and attitude.

For men and women with sensitive digestive systems, digestive function often becomes more efficient during this second month of HGH Hormone Treatment. You will also likely experience a noticeable increase in strength associated with your change in muscle tone, and your body-fat ratio will continue to improve.

HGH Benefits in the Third Month of Treatment

Some of the biggest changes that take place during the third month of HGH Shots are cognitive in nature. During this stage of treatment, you will start to notice changes in your ability to process information and store memories. Human Growth Hormone has a highly protective effect upon cognitive function, and as your Hormone Balance sustains itself, your brain will start to keep track of things more efficiently. Many patients that complained of foggy memory before treatment will claim that it has become easier to store and keep their memories, and their treatment has made it easier to keep up with the fast-paced world around them.

During month three, the patient will continue to experience improved strength and body mass distribution, but he or she will also start to experience improved flexibility, because Human Growth Hormone both has a direct impact upon joint health, and the increase in muscle strength and tone will help the body improve structural integrity, reducing stress upon the joints and bones.

Sexual changes will continue to take place during this period. During the second month, the physical ability to engage in fulfilling sexual activity improves, but in the third month, libido and sexual desire skyrocket as a direct result of treatment.

What to Expect During Month Four of HGH Treatment

During the fourth month of Physician-Monitored Bio-Identical Human Growth Hormone HRT, you likely won't experience any significant new changes in your health and wellness, but the changes that have taken place during the previous three months will continue to take place, improving your overall health and outlook.

Expectations for the Fifth Month of Human Growth Hormone Replacement Therapy

The fifth month of treatment is when you will start to experience the fruits of the physiological changes in your health. By this point, the level of body-fat that you have burned off will have a powerful impact upon your muscle-to-fat ratio, and this will correlate directly with significantly reduced measurements. By this point, be prepared to go shopping, because a lot of your old clothes will simply no longer fit.

Skin health also continues to improve significantly, and the underlying health of your skin will be vastly improved as compared to when you began treatment. As the collagen underneath your skin continues to heal and reinforce itself, the structure of your skin will become much stronger, improving both the tone of your skin as well as its feel. Skin elasticity increases greatly as a result of treatment, meaning that when you pinch your skin, it returns to its former position faster and more accurately. Loss of elasticity is one of the biggest reasons why wrinkles form and persist.

After five months, the changes in your hair that you started to notice earlier in treatment will spread throughout the entire length of your hair. Your hair will generally be brighter, fuller, and softer than it was before treatment began.

HGH Treatment Benefits after Six Months

As you go through your sixth month of medical treatment, you will be preparing to visit your physician for your bi-annual checkup. During this sixth month of treatment, many of the powerful physiological benefits of HGH Injections will start to impact your overall health and wellness. Your enhanced hormone balance will positively influence your psychological health, meaning that you will experience a greater level of emotional balance. The incidence of mood swings as a result of hormone imbalance will drop precipitously.

After six months, your immune system will be much stronger than it was before, meaning that your body will be more resistant to infection and you will be able to ward off disease more efficiently than before. Healthy HGH Levels are central to a strong immune system, and your body will be much more resilient directly as a result of treatment.

Many men and women start to experience improved vision during this phase of therapy, or at least vision stabilization. The visual system is a complex neurological extension of the brain, and your improved neurological health will impact the system in a beneficial way.

Human Growth Hormone Replacement Therapy produces significant benefits in cardiovascular health during the sixth month of treatment. Your improved Muscle-to-Fat percentage will improve your cholesterol balance, increasing good HDL cholesterol and decreasing bad LDL cholesterol. HGH Treatment also reduces triglyceride levels in the blood stream, which are associated with numerous cardiovascular conditions. A cleaner cardiovascular system with healthier cholesterol balance will directly increase the strength and output of each individual heartbeat.

The structural benefits of Human Growth Hormone experienced in the fifth month of treatment will have continuing benefits upon the health of the joints, relieving pressure and alleviating both soreness and pain. Human Growth Hormone will also start having a powerful impact upon cellulite after six months.

Cellulite is the direct result of adipose fat cells which are overfilled, creating the dimpling effect associated with cellulite. Before you visit your physician a second time, you should also notice that your capacity for exercise and physical activity has increased tremendously from the plethora of physiological changes that you have experienced over the course of treatment.

The Key to HGH Hormone Replacement Therapy is Patience

Remember, you won't experience all of the benefits of Hormone Replacement Therapy overnight. It takes time for your body to recalibrate and enhance the level of Hormone Balance within your body. HGH is simply one important factor that we can change that can eventually re-tune your entire body.

HGH is a vital aspect of the hormone cascade which contributes to a healthy male or female. As the body notices that the level of Human Growth Hormone has been restored, it will slowly adapt to that change, producing other hormones in more beneficial amounts.

When you are experiencing symptoms of HGH Deficiency, its like your body is in a long, chronic hangover which hurts your health in countless ways. By restoring normal HGH Levels, your body will begin the process of self-healing, and it will become more reactive to your own efforts to improve your health, which is why we recommend combining HGH Injections with the adoption of a conscientious lifestyle in order to amplify the effects of treatment and help you contribute to a happier and healthier you!
