The Latest in Anti-Aging Medicine: HGH Peptide Treatment

Age is just something you have to accept, right? You slow down, you gain weight, and let’s not talk about what’s happening (or isn’t) in the bedroom.

Here’s the good news: that’s not true. Not anymore. Because a revolution in anti-aging medicine delivers a new answer to the problem of aging. Now you can start feeling the way you felt when you were young. You can feel healthy and strong again. All thanks to HGH peptide treatment, available right here in Dallas, Texas.

What Are HGH Peptides?

HGH peptides are proteins that stimulate the pituitary gland so that it produces new human growth hormone, or HGH. Peptides are the chains of amino acids that are involved in all the hormone production in your body. Because they’re so crucial to hormonal health, anti-aging scientists have zeroed in on them as holding the key to therapies to fight aging.

Your natural production of HGH peaks at around the age of 20, then starts to decline at a rate of about 1.4% per year. While that may not sound like much, it adds up — and the sum total results in you looking and feeling your age.

HGH peptide treatments can turn that around. The peptides used in these treatments are technically known as growth hormone-releasing hormones — which means they prompt your pituitary gland to release more of the HGH your body starts to lack as you age.

When your body produces new HGH, you start to feel and look younger again. You have the energy you remember from your 20s, and your mind is sharp and focused once more. Your metabolism speeds up, so you start to burn calories the way you did in younger years — and yes, your sex drive returns to those youthful levels as well.

HGH peptide treatments also bring good news to your immune system. It fights inflammation, keeping your whole body healthier. And HGH peptide treatments are approved by the FDA as safe and effective.

What Are the Different Types of HGH Peptide Treatments?

At Texas Men’s Health Group, we offer several types of peptide treatments to help you boost your body’s production of HGH. We’ll work with you to determine which is the best for the specific anti-aging effects you’re hoping to experience. Various HGH peptides can boost your immune system, rev up your sex life, help you build muscle mass and get rid of that aggravating belly fat, and even help you sleep better.

CJC 1295

CJC 1295 is one of those growth hormone-releasing hormones mentioned above. It’s able to get your pituitary gland to start releasing more HGH without simultaneously increasing the release of other hormones that don’t need a boost. Depending on your unique body chemistry and needs, we may recommend that you take it in conjunction with ipamorelin, which is discussed below.

Among the benefits that CJC 1295 can deliver to your body are the following:

  • Recharges the male sex drive
  • Helps with recovery after injuries or intense workouts
  • Boosts production of IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor 1)
  • Improves immune system response
  • Increases metabolism
  • Raises overall energy levels
  • Reduces the body’s fat storage
  • Increases lean muscle mass

Ipamorelin

Like CJC 1295, ipamorelin is a growth hormone-releasing hormone. In addition to encouraging the production of HGH, it stimulates ghrelin, the so-called “hunger hormone” via the pituitary gland, and it also suppresses somatostatin, a chemical that inhibits the release of various hormones throughout your body.

We often pair ipamorelin with CJC 1295 for a balanced anti-aging effect. Among other functions, ipamorelin does the following:

  • Increases male sex drive
  • Facilitates the effectiveness of your overall cardiovascular system
  • Increases bone density
  • Boosts energy
  • Improves immune system function
  • Encourages restful sleep
  • Helps increase lean muscle mass
  • Helps decrease body fat, especially belly/abdominal fat
  • Improves male sexual function
  • Lowers cholesterol

PT-141 (Bremelanotide)

This peptide treatment works on your central nervous system to promote male sexual function. It’s a fast-working treatment that can have an effect within minutes. PT-141 isn’t just another form of Viagra, however, as it doesn’t work by improving blood flow. Its effects are similar, though. Bremelanotide encourages erections, which can last for several hours. It’s used not just to treat erectile dysfunction, but to deal with issues of impotence and premature ejaculation. Women who are experiencing a low sex drive can also benefit from taking PT-141.

Is Peptide Therapy Safe?

Yes. When you receive HGH peptide treatment from a reputable health care provider, you’re being treated with ingredients that have been approved by the FDA and created right here in the United States in labs approved by the FDA. We’re not talking about the versions of HGH that some people take without a prescription. HGH peptide treatment is safe, legal, and well-tolerated by most people.

How Does HGH Peptide Treatment Work?

Each person’s HGH peptide treatment is a little bit different, since your therapy is customized to your unique body and needs. Most people start off with daily injections of HGH peptides.

Don’t worry — that doesn’t mean you’ll have to come in to your doctor’s office every day. We’ll start you off by giving you your first injections, and we’ll teach you how to handle your injections yourself. The needle is minimal, (if you’ve ever seen an insulin needle, it’s very similar in size), and the injections are very easy to administer.

Because your body naturally produces HGH at night, while you’re in deep sleep, we encourage you to take your injections at night. That way, the peptides are working their way through your body just when your pituitary gland is already getting to work, and your peptide treatment will be at its most effective.

What Can You Expect Once You Start HGH Peptide Treatment?

The effects of HGH peptide treatments accrue over time. For the most part, you should expect to start seeing those effects within a few weeks or months, not right away. There is, of course, one major exception, as mentioned above, since PT-141 starts to work very, very quickly.

If you’re looking for the broad anti-aging benefits of peptide treatments, though, you’ll have to have just a bit of patience. Most men start to see some effects within a few weeks. Expect to feel more energetic and to have more stamina. Another early effect is often improved sleep, along with a general feeling of contentment.

While some men start to lose weight in the first few weeks, for most people, the real physical changes kick in during the second month of peptide treatments. You’ll notice weight loss, especially in the abdominal area, and you may also become aware of improved muscle tone. You should also experience improvements to your hair, skin and nails around this time — healthier hair, stronger nails, more supple skin, and a gradual disappearance of wrinkles.

By the third or fourth month of peptide treatment, your sex drive should have kicked in at its youthful levels, with sexual performance to match. By now, you’ll be noticing improvements all through your body. Yes, more weight loss and a growth in lean muscle mass, but that’s not all. Your joints should become more flexible. And the changes also start showing up in your mental health, as your ability to focus and concentrate becomes sharper.

HGH peptide treatment typically runs six months. As you move into the final couple of months of treatment, you’ll see continued growth in your hair and skin (fewer wrinkles, fuller hair). Even though you can’t watch the improvement, you may sense the growing health of your inner organs as well, as your immune system strengthens and inflammation throughout your body stops slowing you down. And yes, that weight loss will continue. Most people lost about 10% of their body fat, even if they don’t exercise.

Is HGH Peptide Treatment the Right Anti-Aging Treatment for You?

Ask yourself a few questions to determine whether you should be considering HGH peptide treatment:

  • Are you experiencing difficulty concentrating or memory lapses?
  • Have you been gaining weight over the past few years, especially around your abdomen?
  • Do you feel physically weaker than you used to, with decreased muscle mass?
  • Do you get fatigued easily and feel like you have low levels of energy most of the time?
  • Is your sex drive lagging, and/or have you experienced sexual dysfunction lately?
  • Are your triglyceride numbers elevated?

If you’ve answered “yes” to more than a couple of these questions, you’re experiencing what it means to age. That means HGH peptide treatments might be just what you’ve been wishing for.

While HGH peptide treatment is applicable to both men and women, some people aren’t good candidates for the therapy. People with cancer should avoid boosting their HGH levels, as doing so can also stimulate the growth of cancer cells. If you take corticosteroids or thyroid medication, your doctor won’t prescribe HGH peptide treatment. Also, pregnant women should not be treated with HGH peptides.
