Sermorelin Peptide Therapy

Sermorelin (GHRH) is a bio-identical hormone that has recently been genetically engineered to stimulate the secretion of Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone (GHRH) from the hypothalamus, a gland adjacent to the pituitary gland, Naturally, without the negative side effects and cost of traditional HGH replacement therapy.GHRH is a peptide that contains the first 29 amino acids of our own GH. These 29 amino acids are the active amino acids of GHRH. It is GHRH that stimulates the pituitary glands to release GH. As we get older, the hormones produced by the anterior pituitary are depleted. It has now been shown that GHRH can restore the GH-RNA to a youthful level causing elevation of levels of IGF-1.

Sermorelin is injected into the body fat, subcutaneously, using a very small needle similar to what a diabetic uses to inject insulin. Injections are initially prescribed for every day and are decreased in frequency over time. Sermorelin is presented in a multi-dosed, injectable vial. Administration and storage instructions will be provided with your prescription.

The best time to take Sermorelin is prior to bedtime. Growth Hormone is primarily released during sleep and most beneficial to the body’s recovery and repair during this time. Sermorelin has a promoting effect on sleep and can therefore make you tired if taken during the day.

Due to the pulsatile nature of both endogenous hGH and IGF-1, a single blood draw is not sufficient for accurate measurement. Thrive® physicians measure effectiveness in patients through symptomology (the study of your symptoms-see benefits); physical appearance and measurements; and blood analysis.

Patients usually report improved sleep within the first few weeks of therapy. Of course, this is only noticed in patients who have trouble sleeping in the first place, however most patients at least notice an increase in sleep quality. This is usually concurrent with increased energy levels and improved mood. After 3-6 months of therapy patients start reporting noticeable or significant body changes, such as increase in muscle tone and a leaner physique. Over time patients will also notice a significant improvement in skin tone and health.

Just like most peptide hormones, Sermorelin usually has a “loading” period of 3-6 months before full effects are noticed. Once injected, for a period of three to six months, its actions are dependent on a chain reaction of biological processes which result in elevated and sustained HGH and growth factors. It takes some time for levels to become optimal and initiate the benefits we are seeking to achieve.

Actually, no. Sermorelin has an ongoing effect in which optimal hGH levels can be sustained long after the last injection. Just like synthetic hGH, Sermorelin initially must be injected every day. Unlike synthetic hGH, once optimal levels are sustained with Sermorelin injection frequencies can be decreased or stopped altogether. Once results are achieved, patients are then switched to a maintenance protocol eliminating the need for ongoing daily injections and reducing the total cost of therapy!Thrive Health and Wellness, LLC Sermorelin therapy restores optimal levels of Human Growth Hormone using a more effective approach. We may recommend combining an effective dosage of Sermorelin with bio-identical hormones like testosterone to increase lean muscle tissue, reduce body fat, and improve overall health and longevity.Our medical team also recommends the utilization of injectable amino acids and peptides to help improve results.

Sermorelin is not HGH; it is a like hormone to the GHRH. Human Growth Hormone is an illegal substance and cannot be prescribed to patients for use. When HGH is injected into the body it is genetically engineered in a lab to mimic the effects of natural HGH. The human growth hormone is a much larger molecule that reaches 190 amino acids, whereas Sermorelin is 29 amino acids. Sermorelin is much safer and has not shown any increase of cancer possibility, unlike injectable HGH.

Sermorelin does not add HGH to the body, instead it stimulates the release of the natural HGH your body has already formulated.
