Anti-aging and HGH Clinics in Oakland, CA

Forms of HGH Therapy Available in the Oakland Area

---

Many people, and for these purposes, many throughout Oakland are unaware HGH therapy comes in many different forms. It is important to understand every form of HGH therapy available along with the risks associated with them. The only FDA approved forms of HGH therapy include rHGH and GHRP. However, there are supplements on the market claiming to be “as effective” as the pharmaceuticals.

For starters, no supplement on the market has been evaluated by the FDA to support any claims. Both the FDA and FTC have issued warnings to the public to make people aware over-the-counter HGH supplements have no data backing them. Additionally, the supplement industry has very little regulation on their manufacturing process. As a result, it is difficult to determine whether or not the product contains what is listed on the label in the first place.

While rHGH is FDA approved and regulated, it has more side effects and drug interactions when compared to GHRP and Ibutamoren. Furthermore, rHGH has a very short window of activity. rHGH is used and rapidly broken down once it is injected. GHRP and Ibutamoren, on the other hand, can produce longer effects due to its mechanism of action.

This is why Ehormones MD is one of the more popular Anti-aging Clinics in the San Francisco Bay Area, with offices in Fremont, Oakland, San Jose and San Ramon.

 

Are there Risks Associated with HGH Therapy?

---

Too much HGH may result in:

• Cardiovascular damage
• Swelling
• Joint Pain
• Headaches
• Blood Sugar Dysregulation
• Acromegaly (overgrowth of the bones and organs)

If a patient notices any of these side effects, they must alert their prescribing physician as soon as possible. But, this is precisely the reason why we prescribe GHRP or Ibutamoren – they are safe, effective and they have both been the subject of numerous medical trials. The physician will then make the appropriate adjustments to the medications.

Some health conditions may also be contraindicated for HGH Therapy. This means a patient may not be a good candidate for HGH Therapy if they have one, or more of the following conditions:

• Tumors
• Cancer
• Serious Illness
• Breathing Problems
• Diabetes

What is Testosterone Therapy?

The Ehormones MD Testosterone Therapy Guide

Testosterone is a sex hormone found in both men and women. It is anabolic which means it is responsible for signaling growth, primarily in skeletal muscle. Men over the age of 30 will often experience a drop in their testosterone by nearly 2% every year. Testosterone Therapy helps to correct this decline by providing testosterone via an injection.

To accurately assess if a patient is a good candidate for Testosterone Therapy, Ehormones MD physicians will run a comprehensive blood analysis, perform a physical assessment, and listen to patient input. Following these tests, Ehormones MD physicians will design a targeted testosterone therapy protocol unique to each patient’s metabolic profile.

Ehormones MD utilizes the most effective form of testosterone injections available. Depending on the patient’s lab results, some may need to take additional medications. The medications help to promote the best outcomes possible. One of the most medication given alongside testosterone therapy includes something called an aromatase inhibitor. These medications are designed to prevent the conversion of testosterone into estrogen.

Once a patient begins therapy with Ehormones MD in San Francisco, they are required to follow up regularly. These follow-ups include having labs redrawn and reviewing these labs with an Ehormones MD physician. By following a strict follow-up schedule patient outcomes can be dramatically improved while also reducing the risk of negative side effects.
