Dosage of Growth Hormone


We suggest that you should first try raising your own endogenous levels using growth hormone

releasers. These are safe, non toxic supplements that will not interfere with your pituitary function, and they have the added benefits of being about one tenth the cost and not requiring infection.


I you do not respond to these releasers and continue to have low Igf-1 levels and you decide to opt for growth hormone replacement, be aware that the therapeutic doses of growth hormone for age related HGH deficiency have yet to be determined. Most researchers agree that the dosages used by Daniel Rudman in his ground breaking study were too high, causing unacceptable side effects such as carpal tunnel syndrome and gynecomastia, Rudman himself was planning to use lower doses in his subsequent studies.


A press release issued by the Office of public affairs at the Medical College of Wisconsin in November 1993 notes, "The results of our clinical trial with Hgh have revealed that the optimum hormone dose is only one quarter to one half as great as was previously  believed. At the lower doses of Hgh a beneficial enlargement of muscles and shrinkage of fatty tissues is achieved without risk of adverse side effect" (carpal tunnel syndrome, enlargement of male breast, diabetes, or fluid retention.)


Other researchers, including the original groups in England, Denmark, and Sweden, went through the same learning process, starting out with amounts that were too high and resulted in side effects and finding out that they could achieve  the same benefits with a lower dosage without adverse or uncomfortable side effects. In this article we are concerned only with replacement doses, putting back into your body what nature has taken away. Going beyond replacement doses of Gh or Igf-1 as some athletes, particularly bodybuilders, are doing is dangerous and foolhardy. The best approach to growth hormone, as indeed to any hormone replacement, including that of insulin, is to start low and incrementally adjust the dose to the level that is suitable for each patient based of Igf-1 levels, clinical response, and side effects. We encourage taking natural Hgh. 


The good news for your pocketbook is that dosages needed may be far lower than what is generally used. A 1995 study by Hans de Boer and others at the University Hospital i Amsterdam came up with an optimal replacement dose in growth hormone deficient adults.
