Hormone replacement therapy is a treatment commonly used to relieve symptoms of menopause in women and Low Testosterone (Low T) in men.
Human growth hormone (hGH) is a naturally occurring hormone produced by the pituitary gland. It is responsible for cell growth and regeneration. It also helps regulate body composition, body fluids, muscle and bone growth, and fat metabolism.
Symptoms of menopause include:
Reduced libido
Slowed metabolism
Weight gain
Depression
Hot flashes
Symptoms of Low T include:
Reduced libido
Reduced erectile function
Loss of lean muscle mass
Slowed metabolism
Weight gain
Depression
While both treatment therapies can help treat symptoms related to menopause and Low T, the way they do it is very different. Testosterone is a steroidal hormone that causes fairly rapid increases in lean muscle mass and strength, restores libido and helps with things like erectile dysfunction in men.
hGH is a protein that is responsible for growth. When someone is treated with synthetic HGH, receptors tell the cells that cause growth to turn on. This encourages the body to use calories to build muscle and bone. If you’re a sports fan, then you’ve probably heard of athletes using hGH to enhance their performance.
If you’re struggling with symptoms of Low T, like fatigue, low libido and muscle loss, then hormone replacement therapy may help. With a simple blood test, your provider will be able to diagnose Low T and tailor treatment to match your unique needs.
