Human growth hormone (HGH), also known as somatotropin, is a peptide hormone that stimulates growth, cell reproduction, and cell regeneration. As we age, our bodies produce less HGH, resulting in numerous effects associated with aging.
HGH peptide therapy involves injecting synthetic HGH peptides to increase hormone levels. The goal is to counteract age-related declines in HGH by restoring it to more youthful levels. Potential benefits of HGH therapy include:
- Increased muscle mass and decreased body fat
- Improved bone density
- Enhanced exercise performance
- More energy and improved mood
- Better skin elasticity and thickness
- Enhanced sexual function
- Strengthened immune system
There are several types of
HGH peptides used in therapy:
- GHRP - Growth Hormone Releasing Peptides act on Ghrelin receptors to stimulate natural HGH release
- GHRH - Growth Hormone Releasing Hormones also trigger the pituitary gland to secrete HGH
- IGF-1 - Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 is mainly responsible for growth stimulation by HGH
- Ipamorelin - a selective GHRP that mimics Ghrelin without side effects
- CJC-1295 - a synthetic GHRH analog that sustains HGH release

HGH peptide therapy is administered through subcutaneous injections, usually into fat around the waist. Doses and frequency depends on the peptides used and patient needs. A typical starting dose is 100 mcg injected daily. Cycles generally run for 3-6 months.
There are some potential side effects to consider:
- Water retention
- Joint pain
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Increased insulin resistance
However, these can often be managed by adjusting the dosage and administration schedule. Using shorter cycles with time off in between can also reduce side effects.
