Human growth hormone (HGH) is an important hormone produced in the pituitary gland that peaks during puberty and young adulthood. As we age, HGH production declines substantially for most people. This decline is associated with changes in body composition, energy levels, cardiac function, immune function, skin appearance, and more.
Restoring HGH to more youthful levels through injections of bioidentical growth hormone can help counter some of the effects of aging. HGH therapy is increasingly recognized as an effective anti-aging treatment when used properly under medical supervision.
HGH therapy may benefit men and women over 30 who are experiencing low energy, increase in body fat (especially abdominal fat), loss of muscle mass and tone, reduced exercise capacity, thinning and drying skin, decreased immunity, unstable moods, poor sleep quality, and lowered sex drive.
Blood tests are required to accurately measure current HGH levels and determine if they are below normal for the patient’s age and gender. Balance Hormone Clinic provides comprehensive hormone blood testing in Phoenix to assess candidate’s eligibility for growth hormone replacement.
If blood tests confirm a hormone deficiency, Balance Hormone Clinicians will determine an individualized HGH dosing protocol designed to restore levels to an optimal range.
Many patients on a medically supervised HGH program report excellent benefits such as:
Human growth hormone (HGH) is naturally secreted by the anterior pituitary gland, with highest levels occurring during childhood and puberty when growth is accelerating.
In addition to stimulating linear growth in youth, HGH boosts protein production needed for increased muscle and bone mass. It also mobilizes fat for energy use.
HGH levels typically peak during the late teens/early 20s, then steadily decline after age 30 at rate of about 14% per decade, on average. By age 60, most people make 75% less HGH compared to their youthful prime production period.
When HGH injections restore levels to a more youthful range, patients often report feeling decades younger in terms of body composition, strength, endurance, skin quality, immune vigor, sexuality, mood and cognition.
While often associated with performance enhancement and anti-aging, HGH therapy was originally developed in 1985 as a treatment for growth hormone deficiency in children to help them attain normal height and development. Recent research indicates it may also aid muscle and tissue healing in some adults when prescribed appropriately.

Our expert hormone specialists have over 15 years experience optimizing health, vitality and performance through precision balancing of crucial hormonal messengers like HGH.
We provide fully customized programs designed around your unique needs, priorities and budgets.
HGH therapy involves subcutaneous injections just under the skin, typically using very small needles for improved comfort.
Injection sites are rotated daily between abdomen, thighs and buttocks to minimize irritation. Dosing frequency is generally 3 to 7 times weekly depending on patient characteristics and chosen treatment regimen.
Most patients learn to self-administer HGH shots at home very easily. Balance Hormone Clinic teaches self-injection techniques and provides ongoing coaching to ensure optimal results.
HGH dosing is highly individualized based factors like patient age, gender, diagnosed deficiencies, treatment goals, existing health conditions, and relevant lab markers.
Balance Hormone Clinicians constantly adjust dosing to keep patients in an optimal range for benefits while avoiding side effects. Treatment plans evolve over time as patient needs change.
Despite scare stories in the media, significant side effects are very rare when HGH therapy is properly administered under an experienced doctor’s supervision.
Potential issues like fluid retention, joint pain and carpal tunnel syndrome are generally mild and reversible when caught early. They result from HGH doses exceeding a person’s optimal range.
Through frequent lab testing and monitoring for patient reported effects, Balance Hormone Clinicians adjust dosing to maximize benefits while preventing overdose issues.
Balancing other key hormones like testosterone, thyroid and DHEA optimizes HGH therapy effects for both men and women. Balance Hormone Clinic provides complete hormone panel testing and precision balancing of levels.
Improving nutrition intake gives the body resources needed to build muscle and bone, heal faster, and function at peak levels. Our nutrition experts provide customized meal planning guidance.
Incorporating fitness routines like strength training and high intensity interval training boosts HGH’s ability to add lean muscle and burn fat. Phoenix has amazing weather for year-round outdoor exercise.
Reducing stress through relaxing activities helps normalize cortisol and other hormones that can limit HGH therapy benefits if left uncontrolled. Phoenix offers great options like hiking, boating, golf, scenic drives, spas and more for lowering stress.
Prioritizing restorative sleep enables HGH to work its overnight magic restoring energy, immunity, skin quality, muscle growth and cognitive function. Balance Hormone Clinic provides sleep health evaluations and coaching.
