Effective dosage: 2-4 i.u./day; Active half life (?) : 9-17 Days

Human Growth Hormone is one of the most costly and popular medicines today. HGH has multiple advantages including improved sleep, memory retention, healthier skin, more sexual and emotional strength. It also increases your stamina. All these benefits help you to live a longer a happier life.

The safety of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) with synthetic HGH injections is still a major issue as it increases cancer risks, because some other forms of synthetic HRT have amplified the threat of cancer.

HGH injections are in powder form, which must be reconstituted with bacteriostatic water before injecting it. It must be kept it refrigerator; it stays secure for only a short period after reconstitution.
 
The recommended amount of HGH in medicine is 8 IU per week as often as prescribed by doctors, however in most popular HGH therapies this dosage is 4 IU per day in average. This is divided into 2 doses per day for 6 days a week. You can get used to giving yourself a intramuscular or more recommended subcutaneous injection in the morning and at bedtime. You must remember that no injections are taken on the 7th day. The dose of HGH is prescribed individually, depending on the age and health of the patient.

Professional and qualified doctors start with low doses like 0.5 IU per day and increase the dosage in 0.5 IU monthly increments as required. You must keep in mind that as older patients are more sensitive, they may require a smaller dose than younger people. Some experts believe that dosages of over 2-4 IU per day will start causing side effects.

Human Growth Hormone injections also have certain serious side effects like acromegaly, fluid retention, enlarged breasts in males, painful joints, carpal tunnel syndrome, and liver damage. For this reason, it must be taken in consultation with your doctor.

Human Growth Hormone's direct and indirect effects on human body:

• Stimulates division and multiplication of the chondrocytes of cartilage
• Increases both calcium retention and the mineralization of bones
• Stimulates cell growth in every organ of a human body
• Increases metabolism
• Repairs damaged cells
• Induces protein synthesis
• Decreases protein degradation
• Stimulates the immune system
• Promotes lipolysis
• Increases glucose transport

In the human body, somatotropin is at its highest levels in children and during puberty, stimulating the growth of the body during those ages. After puberty, the level of growth hormone secretion declines and continues to do so as a person ages.

Growth hormone deficiency (GHD) is a disease in which a person's pancreas fails to produce an adequate amount of normal endogenous growth hormone. In children, this results in short stature and growth failure. In adults, GHD causes deficiencies of strength, energy, and bone mass.

GHD can be treated in both children and adults with somatropin, also known as synthetic human growth hormone (Human Growth Hormone). However, to treat conditions of height, a child must be treated before the growth plates (epiphyses) at the ends of long bones have fully matured and closed.

Healthy adults most commonly use Human Growth Hormone for Anti Aging, Body Building and Fat Loss purposes.

Human Growth Hormone possible side effects

As growth hormone is naturally produced in the human body, the side effects of Human Growth Hormone treatment are rare. Generally, these side effects are caused by taking higher-than-recommended doses of Human Growth Hormone over longer-than-recommended periods of time. However, Human Growth Hormone has been known to occasionally cause:

Hypoglycemia
Hypoglycemia is the opposite of diabetes. In people with diabetes, their bodies do not produce an adequate amount of insulin, leading to dangerously high glucose levels. People with hypoglycemia have too much insulin, leading to too low glucose levels. Because Human Growth Hormone increases the level of insulin in your body, some people have suffered from hypoglycemia after taking Human Growth Hormone drugs.

Acromeglia
Acromeglia is a disease that causes abnormal bone growth. Human Growth Hormone cannot cause acromeglia, but it can speed up the progression of the disease in people predisposed to it.

Extended Belly
When used as a bodybuilding drug, Human Growth Hormone can cause a bodybuilder to have an extended belly if the drug is not used as directed. However, this defect is rare in users who take the drug as directed.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal tunnel syndrome is caused by a pinched nerve in the wrist. It can lead to loss of hand movement. Human Growth Hormone has been known to cause carpal tunnel syndrome in users who do not take the drug as directed.

Joint Pain
Because of its ability to cause growth in a person's body, some users report joint pain while taking Human Growth Hormone. This side effect is usually temporary
