Experiences with

Growth hormone

Has anybody read about HGH use in prostate cancer patients to help prevent muscle loss and to fight fatigue? All we could find was something about lesser chance to end up with prostate cancer if plenty of HGH is present.

The outcome of this testing is that my human growth hormone (HGH) is low. My GP said he didn’t know what to make of this and would refer to endocrinology, endocrinology would not accept the referral saying they don’t know what my HGH should be at my age (65).

He's very small for his age (just started on growth hormone therapy) and is currently taking the smallest dose of Vyvance for his ADHD. Next year he will be entering High School. I was wondering how the transition was for your children's transition into high school from middle school.

I was diagnosed with Growth Hormone Deficiency in Nov 2020 and have been on treatment for that with Somatropin since then. It improved things enormously, but still symptoms remained, and I finally figured out that I have Central Hypothyroidism, largely thanks to this group.

I have read that sauna use does apparently trigger growth hormone release and so I wonder aloud here if anyone has had their doctor discourage sauna? Or for that matter, too much or too vigorous exercise?

This is pretty far off topic for PCa but studying these genes may lead to some clues on controling cancer in humans. https://www.iflscience.com/how-the-largest-whales-got-so-big-may-be-explained-by-four-genes-67162?utm_source=join1440&utm_medium=email&utm_placement=newsletter

Testing growth hormone on its own isn't very useful as it's a hormone that varies considerably during the day.

I have been taking DHEA and human growth hormone and my clinic have said they will up my stimulation drugs from last time when I was on the lowest dose. Has anyone had a good outcome after getting 11 follicles at baseline? Is there a chance I can get more?

I have a provisional/suspected diagnosis of central hypothyroidism, and also have growth hormone deficiency. I have been titrating up on Levo, starting on 25mcg on 12/09/2022 for 38 days, moving up to 37.5mcg on 20/10/2022 (just 4 days before the sleep test).

PRL is a peptide hormone that resembles the growth hormone ... "It is largely produced by the lactotrope cells of the anterior pituitary gland as a pro-hormone ... 

After a decade of ill health, only part of which was this problem, I was diagnosed with and treated for Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD) from Nov 2020. This has improved my life enormously in many ways, but not helped the sexual dysfunction.

My 18 year old daughter has secondary hypothyroidism, recent tests show her growth hormone is half the level it should be, the endocrinologist has increased Levo to 100mg and she is due a blood test in a couple of weeks.

People are seen using HGH to lose weight, some people are of the opinion that HGH or the human growth hormone pills are good for losing fat and for gaining muscles.

I've suspected growth hormone deficiency (GHD) but also her thyroid results are very suspicious for central hypothyroidism (CeH), with low range FT4, low TSH, and hypothyroid symptoms. My view is that she has had CeH for years, and then GHD since the surgery.
