Human growth hormone only makes children taller. Once the growth plates in a child's bones have fused, HGH stops working in this way. HGH Abuse The most common uses for HGH are not FDA-approved. Still, some people get HGH shots from doctors who prescribe them for off-label purposes (use...
Craniofacial growth in short children born small for gestational age: effect of growth hormone treatment. The effects of growth hormone (GH) therapy in children have yet to be completely catalogued. In the present study, the effect of high-dose GH treatment on ... V Erum,Mulier,Carels,.....
Little is known about the long-term effects of IGF-I therapy in growing children, but caution and long-term, controlled, prospective trials of rhIGF-I-treated children and adolescents are needed. 展开 关键词: growth growth hormone (GH) idiopathic short stature (ISS) insulin-like growth factor...
These children increase their growth rates to substitution doses of hGH. In other children whose growth disorder is not likely to be caused by a disorder in the growth hormone-somatomedin axis, growth increments are occasionally seen on higher hGH doses. Future long-term studies--carefully ...
Because growth hormone causes expansion of the lean body mass and contraction of the adipose mass, and because growth hormone secretion tends to diminish in late adulthood, it has been postulated that geriatric hyposomatotropism is a contributory cause to the body composition changes described above....
Human Growth Hormone (HGH) has claimed to delay aging, increase muscle mass and strength, and burn fat. But does it really work?
Growth Hormone Deficiency Too little growth hormone (deficiency) results in poor growth in children which is one of the many causes of short stature and dwarfism. GH deficiency often persists into adulthood, although some people affected in childhood have normal GH secretion in adulthood. GH deficie...
Growth hormone may cause transient hyperglycemia; it can be recovered as the administration proceeded or terminated. Adverse reactions occurred in about 1% short stature children in clinical trial. Common adverse reactions include slight pain, tingle, turgescence around the injection site and peripheral...
