What is HGH?

Human growth hormone (HGH) is made by the pituitary gland at the base of the brain. In adults, it helps regulate body composition, muscle, bone and metabolism. Prescription HGH (somatropin) replaces growth hormone in people whose bodies do not make enough.

What are the signs of adult growth hormone deficiency?

Signs can include more belly fat, less muscle and strength, lower bone density, low energy and reduced quality of life. Many of these also happen with normal aging and other conditions, which is why testing comes first.

How is growth hormone deficiency diagnosed?

Dr. Eileen Rivera Jimenez, DNP, FNP starts with your history and a blood panel. IGF-1 is a key marker because it reflects growth hormone activity. A single IGF-1 result often cannot confirm deficiency in adults, so further testing, sometimes a stimulation test, may be needed. We also check cancer screening markers, because growth hormone should not be used when there is an active cancer.

What are the side effects of HGH?

Common side effects include fluid retention and swelling, joint and muscle aches, and tingling or numbness in the hands. HGH can also raise blood sugar. Regular labs and check-ins let Dr. Eileen adjust your dose early.

How much does HGH therapy cost?

HGH pricing is the same at both offices and depends on your prescription. Labs can be billed to insurance or paid in cash. Payment plans are available through Cherry, CareCredit and Klarna; contact the office about the Klarna option.

Your questions, answered.

Can I get HGH for anti-aging?

No. HGH can legally be prescribed only for approved medical uses, such as diagnosed deficiency.

What labs do I need?

You will need a blood panel including IGF-1 and cancer screening markers, and more testing may follow.

Do you handle everything in-house?

Yes. Dr. Eileen evaluates, prescribes and monitors HGH therapy herself.

How is HGH taken?

HGH is taken as small injections under the skin, on a schedule Dr. Eileen sets.

Is HGH the same as a peptide?

No. HGH is the hormone itself. Growth hormone peptides prompt your body to release its own.

Also worth exploring.
