The Differences Between Somatotropin and Synthetic Hormones

[seoxeee]

Like most bodily hormones, somatotropin and somatropin have fancy names and like most other hormones without them life would be difficult. Somatotropin and somatropin are both growth hormones. Somatotropin is produced naturally in animals and humans near the pituitary gland and regulates growth and cell reproduction. Somatotropin is buy qsymia online known as growth hormone or GH for short. People who are born with GH deficiency will not gain muscle mass as easily, will not produce amino acids as effectively, have weaker immune systems, and may suffer from dwarfism.

In the past, obtaining somatotropin was difficult and ethically questionable as obtaining samples required using cadavers to get somatotropic cells from the pituitary gland. Some patients who then used this GH became infected with diseases and this experiment was discontinued. With the advance of technology however, a new form of growth hormone was produced called somatropin. Somatropin resembles somatotropin only it is artificially produced in the lab with recombinant DNA technology. As time passed, the hormone found a new name, HGH.

The use of somatropin as a drug is perfectly legal when there is a sufficient medical need, for example growth hormone deficiency. Enough doses of somatropin in the form of HGH can also be used to treat multiple sclerosis, Crohn's disease, and also helps to maintain muscle mass for patients with AIDS. However, even though the healing powers of HGH are well known, somatropin is looked down on in the sporting world because it grants perfectly healthy athletes the ability to gain more muscle mass and recover from injuries faster. This is seen as cheating and has been banned by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and the NCAA. There have also been claims that HGH can be used to combat the aging process, but no scientific tests have confirmed this idea. HGH injections have become quite popular with elite athletes and the wealthy because of their positive effects on performance and appearance.
