What is human growth hormone?
Human growth hormone (HGH) is a hormone that’s naturally produced in the pituitary gland. It plays a vital role in the growth of every cell in the human body as well as cell regeneration, healthy tissue maintenance, and peak body functioning.
The growth hormone is released in bursts every three to five hours by the pituitary gland. The hypothalamus in the brain regulates the secretion of hormones from the pituitary gland. In order for the pituitary gland to release more growth hormones, the hypothalamus must release the growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH). The GHRH, in turn, signals the pituitary gland to release growth hormone.
At the biostation, we use growth hormone peptides with peptide therapy to help patients achieve happier and healthier lives. Growth Hormone Peptides used in peptide therapy do not replace your body’s own growth hormone. Instead, peptides are secretagogues that will naturally enhance and stimulate your body’s own production of HGH.
Human growth hormone deficiency
Some individuals naturally have lower levels of Human Growth Hormone (HGH). Additionally, as we age, the pituitary gland produces less HGH, leading to a natural decline in our levels. For women, this drop typically begins in their early 20s, while for men, it often starts around age 35. By middle age, HGH levels are usually less than half of their peak in the early 20s.
As HGH levels decrease, we may experience adverse effects such as weight gain, muscle loss, decreased energy, reduced strength and stamina, low libido or sexual dysfunction, poor sleep, and aging skin. While some of these changes are natural with age, steps can be taken to mitigate these negative effects.
HGH-activating peptide therapy
If you are experiencing the effects of aging mentioned earlier, you could have an adult growth hormone deficiency. It's advisable to get your levels checked by a Functional Medicine expert, as some of these adverse effects could potentially be reversed.
At the biostation, we offer a variety of wellness and medical treatments, including peptide therapy for human growth hormone deficiency. This treatment involves subcutaneous injections or sublingual troches, aimed at reversing some effects of aging and improving overall health.
How long does it take anti-aging peptide therapy to work?
Peptide therapy requires a "loading" period of 3-6 months before its full effects are noticeable. The benefits of peptide therapy begin within the first few weeks and increase synergistically with continued use. At first, the peptide is administered more frequently. Once optimal levels and benefits are achieved, the frequency of peptide therapy administration can be reduced, making it possible to transition to a maintenance protocol.
The power of peptide therapy
Peptide does more than help with growth hormone deficiencies. They offer a wide range of benefits for overall health and appearance. Peptides can:
- Look younger
- Lose weight
- Build muscle
- Increase energy
- Enhance cognitive function
- Improve skin collagen
- Look younger
- Reduce inflammation
- Sharpen memory
- Improve sleep sleep
- Recover from injury
- Improve athletic performance

Tesamorelin
Tesamorelin is a Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone (GHRH) analog peptide that can increase IGF-1 levels in both men and women. It is an injectable peptide that can increase the natural production of Human Growth Hormone (HGH). This growth hormone can bind and stimulate the GHRH receptors that have a similar potency to GHRH.
- increases natural production of HGH (Human Growth Hormone)
- Increases IGF-1 (Insulin Growth Factor – 1)
- Reduces triglycerides
- Reduced visceral fat
- Improved cognitive function
CJC 1295 + Ipamorelin
CJC 1295 + Ipamorelin demonstrates that a combination can be more effective in restoring youthful vitality. Ipamorelin is notable because it mimics the body's natural growth hormone (GH) pulses. When CJC 1295 and Ipamorelin are used together, they promote a more potent and consistent release of HGH, doubling the anti-aging, fitness, and weight loss benefits.
- Enhances growth hormone levels
- Improves fat loss and weight loss
- Increases lean muscle mass
- Accelerates healing and recovery
- Strengthens cardiovascular system
- Boosts immune system
- Enhances energy level stamina
- Increases bone density
- Improves skin firmness and moisture retention
- Enhances sleep quality
Sermorelin
Sermorelin is a peptide designed to combat aging effects and support weight loss. It stimulates the pituitary gland's natural production of human growth hormone, which normally declines with age. By promoting the pituitary gland's healthy function, Sermorelin helps restore hormone levels to a more youthful state. This improves appearance, weight, energy, health, and overall quality of life.
- Increases lean muscle mass
- Reduces body fat
- Boosts energy
- Strengthens immune system
- Improves cardiovascular health
- Enhances quality of sleep
- Builds stamina
- Improves skin firmness and thickness
- Accelerates healing
Ibutamoren
MK-677, also known as Ibutamoren, is a growth hormone secretagogue that stimulates the pituitary gland and naturally releases stored growth hormones for the body to use. By replenishing the supply lost with age, your body can regain muscle, metabolism, healthy hair, clear skin and faster recovery of your youth.:
- Increases growth hormone levels
- Builds muscle mass
- Increases muscle strength
- Improves fat burning
- Revs up metabolism
- Improves skin firmness and moisture retention
- Enhances sleep quality
IGF-1 LR3
IGF-1 LR3, a potent peptide, is preferred by fitness fanatics for the way it enhances athletic performance and weight loss efforts because it:
- Accelerates fat burning and fat loss
- Improves skin elasticity and collagen production
- Builds lean muscle
- Enhances strength and stamina
- Decreases inflammation
- Improves sleep
- Heals and repairs lean muscle tissue
- Helps balance blood insulin levels
