A hormone that is crucial for normal growth in height is the Growth Hormone (HGH). It is made by the pituitary gland located in the middle of the head at the base of the brain.

Growth hormone affects glucose and fat metabolism, the production of protein to sustain new cell development and, most importantly, it stimulates bone growth at the growth plates located at the ends of the bones. Children with growth hormone deficiency usually have a dramatic slowing of growth. They may have younger looking faces than their actual age, but have normal body proportions. Diagnosis is made with blood tests and treatment is by regular injections of human growth hormone or one of its analogues. Treatment should continue until the bone growth plates fuse indicating that growth is completed. Unlike many other hormones, replacement growth hormone is very expensive.

Lately, it has become common that a drug designed for one purpose gets a second life because of desirable side effects that have little or nothing to do with the original intent. Sometimes, the drug even gets a third life, like human growth hormone (HGH).When the other incarnations of the drugs have little or no apparent medical value, and are instead used for what amounts to pure vanity, should we be using biotech research to put them on the market? The answers are as varied as the products.

For instance, human growth hormone originally was intended for children with growth disorders. Then “older people seeking the fountain of youth and athletes wanting a boost started finding illegal suppliers of HGH for muscle growth and overall toning,” reported USA Today. HGH, a substance secreted by the pituitary gland, promotes growth during childhood and adolescence. The hormone acts on the liver and other tissues to stimulate production of insulin-like growth factor I, which is responsible for the growth-promoting effects of growth hormone and also reflects the amount produced.

Sometime after her 43rd birthday, Dawn Foley noticed she was beginning to look her age. And she didn’t like it one bit. A former beauty queen turned sales professional in Los Angeles, the blue-eyed brunette is used to turning heads. “I just did not want to look older,” she says.

When Foley approached her ob/gyn seeking hormones, the doctor told her that her levels fell within the normal range of a woman her age and that she didn’t need any more. So Foley instead turned to the world of “age management,” whose practitioners have learned to skirt the law by expanding the definition of growth hormone (HGH) deficiency syndrome to include almost anyone over the age of 30. “That’s one of the first things I learned,” Foley says. “If a regular doctor tests your levels, he’ll say you’re within range even if you’re all the way down at the low end. But [an anti-aging] specialist is going to tell you, ‘You’re within the normal range, but if we bring those levels up, you’ll feel a whole lot better.’”
