Has a strong anabolic effect as it not only causes muscular hypertrophy ( enlargement
of muscle cells ) but also muscular hyperplasia ( increase of the number of
muscle cells ) while anabolic steroids only cause muscular hypertrophy. HGH
also influences burning of fat strengthens the connective tissue ( tendons and
cartilage ) and greatly increases strength. Gains made on HGH
cycle remain after the drug has been discontinued. HGH
has to be used in combination with thyroid hormones (T3), insulin, anabolic
steroids... to be effective. Because growth hormone has a short half life injections
should be divided throughout the day.
All professional bodybuilders use HGH
as well as most of professional athletes from boxers, martial artists, gymnasts...
it is a favorite of professional athletes all over the world because of it's
unique effects and because there is no method for detecting it in doping tests.
The use of exogenous sources of Growth Hormone has been popular in the United
States for almost 8 years now. Originally, athletes used biologically active
forms that were the actual extract of the pituitary glands of cadavers. While
production was under way on the synthetic, recombinant DNA versions of this
drug, it was discovered that the biologically active form was associated with
the formation of a rare brain virus called Creutzveldt Jacob Disease. This was
a fatal virus that afflicted a very small number of HGH
users, none of whom were athletes. In light of this discovery, the FDA removed
all of these natural HGH<
versions from the market in the United States. Luckily, the synthetic recombinant
versions were approved by the FDA a short time afterwards. These versions were
developed after years of experiments with amino acid chains. The first of these
versions was patented and produced by Genentech Labs with the brand name Protropin.
A short time later, another form of synthetic Growth Hormone gained FDA approval.
It was produced by Eli Lilly Labs and brand named Humatrope. This product was
allowed to be patented because it was shown to be unique in that it contained
a slightly different amino acid chain than the Protropin. The difference was
that Humatrope had 191 amino acid chains in sequence and Protropin had 192.
For some very complicated reasons, the 191 amino acid configuration has been
shown to be more effective. It had been speculated that these synthetic versions
of HGH would
greatly improve the cost effectiveness of using HGH,
yet that has not been the case. An athlete who wants to do a cycle of HGH
can still expect to be out as much as $2000 a month. There are numerous versions
of Growth Hormone available in Europe, the majority of which are made up of
the 191 amino acid sequence. There is even a form of the original human extract
Growth Hormone, called Grorm which is available in a few countries. Although
this drug is indicated for the treatment of pituitary deficient dwarfism, it
has been used extensively by athletes who are attempting to alter their body
composition. Growth Hormone itself, is an endogenous hormone produced by the
pituitary gland. It exists at specially high levels during the teen years when
it promotes growth of almost all tissues. It also contributes to the deposition
of protein and promotes the breakdown of fat for use as energy. As the body
reaches full maturation, the endogenous levels of HGH
are substantially diminished. After this, HGH
is still present in the body but at a substantially lower level where it continues
to aid in protein synthesis, RNA and DNA reactions and the conversion of body
fat to energy. By introducing an exogenous source of this hormone, athletes
are hoping to promote these effects, causing the body to deposit more muscle
tissue while at the same time reducing body fat stores. On paper, HGH
should work exceptionally well; however, it does not seem to be delivering up
to its potential. Most athletes who have experimented with this product end
up being disappointed. There is some evidence that exogenous sources of HGH
are being destroyed by antibodies which appear after the introduction of the
synthetic compound.
Although the 191 amino acid sequence versions have been shown to produce less
of an antibody reaction, they are still not yielding consistent results. I have
speculated as to whether the introduction of exogenous HGH
would yield an appreciable degree of efficacy simply due to the fact that the
body does not have sufficient receptor affinity to HGH
in the post-teen years. A number of athletes claim that GH is not that effective
on its own, but in a stack with steroids it can do remarkable things. Perhaps
there is some type of actual synergism created by the concomitant use of these
two agents. Empirical data suggests that the efficacy of GH is dose related
and that the majority of users may not have been taking enough of it to get
positive results. Despite speculation concerning its efficacy, synthetic HGH
is being used by thousands of elite athletes. These include men and women bodybuilders,
strength athletes, as well as a multitude of Olympic competitors. Although Growth
Hormone is banned by athletic committees, there is no method for the detection
of it which allows drug tested competitors to use this product freely without
use are rare but technically could involve acromegaly (elongation of the feet,
forehead and hands). Other possible side effects involve overgrowth of the elbows
or jaw, thickening of the skin and a type of diabetes. Effective dosages seem
to be in the area of 4 IU/day. Cycle length is usually determined by how long
the athlete can afford it. Some take the product for 6 week cycles, others use
it year round.
