PgH, or human growth hormone, is naturally produced in your body in very high amounts as a growing child. As you leave puberty and enter adulthood, the amount of PgH released each evening when you sleep begins to lessen. As a result, you stop your natural growth at this point. You can still get in better shape through the use of diet and exercise, but in terms of actual new cell growth, it is just not occurring on a scale needed for overall growth, any more. At least not naturally!
Once you enter the realm of chemical bodybuilding, you quickly discover that Pituitary Growth Hormone, or PgH, can help you to begin growing all over again. Do you need to use artificial PgH? Of course not. The only thing you really NEED in this world as oxygen, food, and water. PgH is one of those high-end items from whose use you will tremendously benefit.
It’s not just bodybuilders experimenting with PgH. Athletes from all realms of the sporting world are discovering the benefits that PgH gives them in terms of faster recovery, better strength and speed on the field, and the ability to out-pace age as it works to wear down athlete productivity. Elderly patients are using it
There are some warnings to consider with the use of PgH. First of all, the levels of artificial hormone cause muscle cells to grow. But those aren’t the only things in your body that will grow. Many bodybuilders suffer from a condition known as agromegaly, a condition in which the bones of the skull and body begin an unnatural period of growth. Look around at any bodybuilding expo. The stars of the early 1990s, when PgH use first came into play, have mostly returned to smaller, manageable body weights. However, the bones of their arms, elbows, foreheads and jaws have grown at an unnatural rate, leaving them looking a little odd compared with their former selves.
A second fear of the use of PgH is the potential for accelerated cancer cell growth. Recently, a popular daytime television hostess featured PgH as a solution to many of the problems women face with aging. The backlash from the medical community was fierce and swift. Doctors were very upset that a compound such as PgH was being used for vanity, and they pointed out the fact that cancer cells – not just muscle cells – also see exaggerated growth. Cost is another issue. PgH is certainly not cheap, and it must remain refrigerated. It’s also noteworthy to mention that once you begin using PgH, you will need to use the drug for the remainder of your life, if you wish to retain the same level of muscle.
The decision as to whether or not to use PgH is a personal one, but one that should never be taken lightly. Spend some time researching the compound before adding it to your bodybuilding chemistry regimen. It’s a highly effective drug, but one with some side effects – both known and unknown – which should and may deter some potential users.
