HGH For Patients Over 60 Research and Outcomes

While Human Growth Hormone Therapy has been used for decades, its therapeutic use among older men and women has undergone limited thorough study. It's widely prescribed by HRT Clinics and Wellness Professionals for treating waning HGH Levels due to Somatopause, but traditional medical research is just catching up.

IGF-1Critical HGH Metabolite

Human Growth Hormone has a powerful and direct influence on physiological function, but most benefits provided by HGH are due to Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1. Growth Hormone circulates to the liver, where it is broken down into IGF-1.

IGF-1 is responsible for several essential functions. It bolsters muscle mass, strengthens bones, and plays a vital role in maintaining energy levels by unlocking energy from body fat.

What Causes IGF-1 Levels to Decline in Older Adults?

As men and women age, the risk of HGH Deficiency looms, leading to a reduction in IGF-1 Activity. This decline begins around thirty, but the risk of clinical deficiency increases dramatically by age sixty. Human Growth Hormone Deficiency is characterized by several symptoms impacting the quality of life.

Common symptoms include weight gain, muscle atrophy, fatigue, loss of bone mineral density, depression, and fat build-up. It's clear that Growth Hormone Deficiency harms wellness and long-term health outcomes, but research regarding the benefits of HGH in aging populations is relatively scant.

HGH Therapy Study Investigates Potential Benefits for Older Patients

A recent study investigated the benefits of HGH in men over sixty. Twenty-one men were recruited for this study, with twelve receiving HGH Injections three times per week. Both groups had their IGF-1 concentrations evaluated monthly, along with other factors, including Bone Mineral Density, skin health, adipose fat volume, and lean muscle mass.

By the end of the study, men taking HGH saw real benefits compared to the control group. IGF-1 Levels increased significantly to between 500-1500 Units per Liter. They experienced an increase in Bone Density of around 1.6% in the vertebrae, a 14.4% reduction in body fat, and an 8.8% increase in muscle mass.

Potential Side-Effects and Risks of HGH Therapy

While HGH Injections are often prescribed for older patients with Low HGH Levels, it's essential to recognize the potential risk. There are some heart concerns, including arrhythmia and cardiomegaly. HGH use may also exacerbate insulin resistance in sensitive individuals.

It is critical to only prescribe Growth Hormone in concentrations that restore normal HGH Baseline because these risks increase dramatically with high doses. In this study, the only side-effect noted was a slight increase in systolic pressure and fasting blood sugar.
