Human Growth Hormone | 191aa Recombinant Growth Hormone
Overview
What is HGH (Somatropin)?
Human Growth Hormone (HGH) is a 191 amino acid single-chain polypeptide hormone naturally produced by the anterior pituitary gland. Recombinant HGH is bioidentical to endogenous growth hormone and is FDA-approved for growth hormone deficiency in children and adults. HGH regulates growth, metabolism, body composition, and numerous physiological processes. Banned by WADA
Key Benefits
Improved body composition (increased lean mass, decreased fat mass), enhanced bone mineral density, improved lipid profile, increased exercise capacity, better quality of life and mood, enhanced recovery and healing.
Mechanism of Action
HGH binds to GH receptors on target tissues, triggering JAK2-STAT5 signaling pathway. Direct effects include lipolysis, protein synthesis stimulation, and metabolic regulation. Indirect effects occur via IGF-1 stimulation.

Research Indications
Pediatric GHD
FDA-approved for children with GHD, Turner syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome.
Adult GHD
FDA-approved for adults with GHD from childhood-onset or adult-onset causes.
HIV-Associated Wasting
FDA-approved for treatment of HIV-associated wasting.
Research Protocols
Disclaimer: HGH is FDA-approved only for specific medical conditions. Off-label use carries legal and health risks.
| Goal | Dose | Frequency | Route |
|---|---|---|---|
| Medical GHD Replacement | 0.15-0.8 mg/day | Once daily | Subcutaneous |
| Anti-Aging/Wellness | 1-2 IU/day | Once daily | Subcutaneous |
| Body Recomposition | 2-4 IU/day | Once or twice daily | Subcutaneous |
Timing: Morning fasted injection maximizes fat-burning. At doses >4 IU, split into AM and PM.

How to Reconstitute
Important: Always use bacteriostatic water (BAC). Sterile technique is essential.
Allow vial to reach room temp
Clean stoppers with alcohol
Inject BAC water slowly down vial wall
Gently swirl - never shake
Store refrigerated 2-8°C
