Peptide Therapy

Growth Hormone Optimization

Growth hormone (GH), also known as human growth hormone (hGH) or somatotropin, is a peptide hormone produced by the pituitary gland, a small gland located at the base of the brain. GH plays a crucial role in growth, development, and various physiological processes throughout life. GH has a role in growth and development, metabolism regulation, anti-aging, tissue repair and recovery.

How does Peptide Therapy work?

Peptide therapy involves the use of specific peptides, which are short chains of amino acids, to target and influence various physiological processes in the body. While there are numerous peptides used in peptide therapy, our focus is on Ipamorelin, Sermorelin, and Ibutamoren. 

These peptides work by binding to specific receptors and promote the release of GH. It is this release of GH that can cause benefits such as:

• Increased muscle mass
• Improved body composition
• Enhanced recovery
• Anti-aging effects. 

Can Peptides be combined with TRT?

Yes! Absolutely. The use of peptides alongside TRT can help to increase even more performance enhancing effects. These to therapies complement one another and doing a 3 month cycle of peptide therapy can give an athletic edge. Many individuals will add in the peptide therapy before a big event, marathon, or iron man style race.
