Comparing Growth Hormone Forms: Injections and Supplements

The media has discussed a lot about the different growth hormone (HGH) products out in the market and their different side effects and benefits on the people using them. What kind of products are available for use and are they safe? What are the effects that they produce?

There are 2 different categories of growth hormone products out in the market. You can choose from either supplements or injections. Of the two, growth hormones in the form of injection are purest. But, these forms of HGH need a doctor's prescription. You cannot simply buy injection hormones without a doctor's prescription. On the other hand, anyone can buy HGH supplements without the need of a prescription.

When injections are compared to supplements, injections can produce faster results. In order to show significant results, one has to take growth hormone supplements for up to 3 months. When using injection growth hormones, a person must only use the amount prescribed by his doctor. Anyone should not try to exceed the amount prescribed by the doctor just to see if the effects can show faster and better. If a person takes more than the prescribed amount of growth hormones in the form of injection, he could begin to feel some harmful side effects that includes increased blood pressure, edema or fluid retention and insulin resistance.

Meanwhile, these types of supplements are quite safe to take these days. Supplements contain amino acids and vitamins which can enhance the body's pituitary gland in order to generate more HGH. With the help of these supplements, a person actually takes in simulators or HGH releasers without actually taking growth hormones themselves. In order to generate sufficient amount of hormones, these simulators are actually needed. The side effects of taking supplements are less because the body only produces the right amount of HGH.

There are some cases when the aging process in the body can be enhanced when you finish taking HGH injections. This is because when our body gets used to taking it in its purest form, it then slows down in producing its own form of the hormone. When you stop taking the injections, you will see the results some time later because the body doesn't immediately produce the hormones at full speed. It will still need some time to recover before it is able to produce the right amount itself.

If you are using HGH as supplements, you will not feel the effects of aging as the body as when using injections. This is due to the fact that with the use of supplements, our body still produces its own hormone. When using HGH as supplements, you can actually stop anytime that you want without the fear of any side effects.

If a person does not have a growth related problem, then he doesn't need to have an intake of these hormones. If one decides to take growth hormones because of its anti-aging effects, supplements should be preferred as the side effects are lesser than compared to injections. Injections should only be taken by people who are suffering with growth related problems as they are really effective.
