The majority of GH Deficiency comes from benign tumors on the pituitary gland, including but not exclusively resulting from surgery to this region of the brain (1).
First developed in the 1970s as Geref, Sermorelin is a relatively small peptide that contains 29 of the 44 amino acids contained within the hypothalamic-produced molecule, growth hormone-releasing factor (also known as somatoliberin, tesamorelin, and somatocrinin).
The 29 amino acids (versus the 44 amino acids) are all that is necessary to encourage the pituitary gland to increase its production of life-restoring Human Growth Hormone (HGH).
In compounding Sermorelin for injection, it is sometimes combined with GHRP-6 -- a growth hormone-releasing peptide which comes in many forms.
HGH in Detail -- What is HGH?
Let's take a closer look at HGH itself as a prelude to understanding why Sermorelin injections are quite possibly the best possible way to treat Growth Hormone Deficiency.
HGH is secreted every night while we sleep by the pituitary gland in short bursts and pulses (these bursts and pulses are caused by Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone) because this is the very time the body regenerates and rejuvenates itself. HGH controls the reproduction and growth of the cells and each of the organs in the body.
Our body's average HGH production is most active during childhood when the growth rate is at the highest level, and HGH peaks at around age 20. By age 30, we are experiencing a 14% reduction in HGH production for every subsequent decade of life.
By the time we are in our 40s, the production of HGH is only about 40% of what it was at age 20. Fortunately, we can stimulate the sleepy pituitary gland to begin production of HGH once again, even once this dramatic decline in HGH production has occurred, by using a Growth Hormone-Releasing Factor (GHRF).
