Hello everyone. I would like to share my story of growth hormone deficiency. I’m 44 years old guy. I’m physician. I have daughter who was diagnosed with growth hormone deficiency and started treatment last year and she is responding very well. I’m 5.5” tall. I’m been experiencing symptoms of brain fog, lack of concentration, muscle weakness ( had calf muscle ruptures 3 times while playing soccer) , exercise intolerance ( my heart rate will jump to 170 while running speed 4.5 on treadmill), central obesity, social withdrawal ( against my personality ), high LDL.etc. I read about growth hormone symptoms in adult after my daughter diagnosis . I found out I have 90% of GH deficiency symptoms . I decided to pursue work up. I had an appointment with general endocrinologist and did IGF-1 level and it came low normal at 72. The endocrinologist was not persuaded that I have GH deficiency and wanted to turn me away from his clinic.After multiple messages through MyChart , he finally agreed to do stimulation test which turned to be strongly positive . We did Brain MRI which showed compressed pituitary gland ( the gland that produces and releases GH in addition to other hormones ) . The other hormones were tested and turned to be normal. The endocrinologist then referred me to pituitary endocrinologist who prescribed GH hormone. I went through hassles with insurance ( I had to repeat the stimulation test ) to finally agree to pay for the treatment. I am going to start GH treatment next week. Why I am posting this ? I want to tell anyone who have symptoms to ask for IFG-1 level from PCP or general endocrinologist . If IGF-1 is low normal to be persistent about asking for stimulation test or pituitary endocrinologist referral. I have to admit, for me not being physician , the general endocrinologist wouldn’t have likely ordered the stim test

If my HGH level is 18.5 ng/ml with stimulation and I have a 10mg/1.5ml HGH how much should I take per day to get 28>x<30 ng/ml

Did anyone noticed youthful skin/ lifted skin with growth hormone?

1. Why do people say dont eat food an hour before or after taking human growth hormone?

Does it affect liver production of igf and thereby affect growth or is it just to max out fat loss benefits

2 if it does affect growth n liver production of igf, What is the minimum amount of time after a hgh shot can Somone eat and how much time after eating can Somone take an hgh shot again

3 heard like children with growth hormone deficiencies take large amounts like 8 or even 10 iu hgh a day

does liver have a limit of how much igf it can produce from a huge hgh shot?

Like if soemone is taking 4 iu, is it better to take 2 iu shot in morning and 2 iu shot at night Than taking a 4 iu shot in the morning? Or does it make no difference?

4. if it’s like the first in the 2nd question then how much hgh max can a person take at a time before it’s maxed out for the liver

5. Also if instead of morning and afternoon or morning and night if soemone is taking back to back straigh hgh shots in the morning itself what is the minimum amount of time between two hgh shots if someone is taking back to back shots

When answering please put the question number of which questions ur answering so it’s easier for me and everyone. Just answer the questions you know don’t need to answer all any help is appreciated, If any questions regarding any questions please comment down below thank u so much

As a doctor at our HGH therapy clinic in Florida, I understand the importance of recognizing the symptoms of low HGH and taking steps to restore vitality and well-being. Our experienced team of HGH doctors is dedicated to diagnosing and treating low HGH levels, helping patients regain optimal health.

Let's explore the common symptoms of low HGH:

1. Fatigue and Low Energy: Low HGH levels can result in tiredness and lack of energy throughout the day. Engaging in physical activities becomes challenging, and a general sense of lethargy may persist.
2. Decreased Muscle Mass and Strength: Loss of muscle mass and strength are common symptoms of low HGH. Muscles may feel weaker, making maintaining or building muscle tone difficult.
3. Weight Gain: Hormone deficiency can contribute to weight gain, particularly increased visceral fat around the abdomen. Despite efforts to exercise and maintain a healthy diet, shedding excess weight becomes a struggle.
4. Diminished Libido and Sexual Function: Low HGH levels can impact sexual health, decreasing libido and sexual performance. Both men and women may experience a decline in overall satisfaction and quality of life.
5. Mood Changes and Depression: Hormone imbalance can contribute to mood swings, irritability, and depression. Difficulty concentrating, lack of motivation, or a general sense of sadness may be experienced.
6. Decreased Bone Density: HGH plays a crucial role in maintaining bone health. Low HGH levels can reduce bone density, increasing the risk of osteoporosis and fractures.
7. Skin Changes: Hormone deficiency can cause changes to the skin, including dryness, thinning, and the appearance of wrinkles. The skin may lose elasticity and its youthful glow.

If you're experiencing these symptoms, seeking professional help is essential.

Don't let the symptoms of low HGH hold you back. With the help of doctors, you can uncover the root cause of your symptoms and develop a tailored treatment plan to optimize your hormone levels and rejuvenate your health.

I am concerned for my 18 month old son who is quickly falling down the height percentiles. As a child, I took growth hormones for a few years. I’m now an average female height of 5’4”. I’m trying to estimate what height my child should be genetically. Did taking growth hormones as a child alter my genetics that I would pass along, or would estimating his adult height be more accurate using the height I would’ve been without hgh?

i used to buy the grey tops w.o a script back in 2017-2018 best product i ever tried. I tried omnitrope with the script and received same results with the grey tops for half the price. Pharmaceutical companies are 2 expensive i cant afford it long term. Like $1,200 for 100 units... im really hoping the grey tops are out there somewhere.
