How to test HGH deficiency?

HGH (human growth hormone) an integral part of human body function, is largely responsibles for the normal growth and metabolism. Different HGH levels are present at different times exercise, sleep, emotional stress and diet.

Just like almost everything else that is responsible for balance and normal function, too much or too little can create serious problems. Excessive HGH during childhood can cause for giantism and deficiency for dwarfism. Both giantism and dwarfism can be treated if diagnosed in time.

Insulin-like growth factor, also known as IGF-1 works in conjunction with HGH. Without IGF-1, the benefits of HGH would never be experienced. Levels of HGH and IGF-1 are proportionate to each other. Measurment of IGF-1 level in the blood stream with specific test, is used to gauge the amount of growth hormone produced in the body. Two blood samples taken on seperate days are necessary for the the test.
