The Details of HGH Side Effects Discovered

HGH therapy has been subjected to extensive research and the results are incredible. The news has excited the public, leading to publication in highly regarded journals like the New England Journal of Medicine.

An eight percent increase in muscle mass, an average 4.4% loss of fat, and weight loss with no exercising were among the benefits reported in these studies. Also reported was a loss of cellulite, wrinkle reduction, more elastic skin, improved memory, sharper vision, improved sleep, decreased blood pressure, improved cholesterol readings, better cardiac function and many other health benefits.
 
Millions of dollars and thousands of man hours have been expended on different studies by huge pharmaceutical manufacturers attempting to find drugs that give at least of these benefits. Now that you know that there is a pharmaceutical available that combines so many of these great benefits into one incredible substance, you will of course start to think about what the downside of this product could be.

Whenever your body is introduced to a large dose of any hormone there will be a chance of side effects. HGH taken in excess can therefore produce some very dangerous side effects. Genetics vary greatly from person to person and affect how each person reacts to the same hormone dosages substantially.

The greatest HGH side effects have been seen in body builders and athletes who have in all likelihood taken extremely large dosages over extensive periods of time. Cases such as these have been known to produce unusual growths with unnaturally large bones being one characteristic. Research shows to increased danger of cardiac irregularities, heart damage, and joint and facial deformities due to long term abuse.

Over use of the drug has been shown to be the cause of most hgh side effects. Strictly following the dosage prescribed by your physician and by limiting the time the hormone is used can greatly minimize the dangerous HGH side effects. The risk of reactions can be reduced by injecting a lower dosage.

In some of the initial studies there have been a few observed cases of patients who suffered from carpal tunnel syndrome, and a condition of enlarged breasts called gynecomastia. Other side effects that have been documented are hypertension, swollen joints and chronic joint pain, increased hair growth, and retention of internal fluids.

Stress to the liver and even liver damage can occur when the organ has to process large dosages of the synthetic forms of HGH in the blood.The danger of your body producing less growth hormone as a result of increased synthetic levels in the blood is also real. In some cases the pituitary gland could completely cease producing any hgh.

An individual needs to look at the benefits and side effects to determine if HGH therapy is for them. Making informed decisions is important as well as weighing all the consequences and researching various options.
