Peptide therapy involves using peptide compounds to promote health and fight disease. Peptides regulate many functions and can be used to treat hormone deficiencies, promote tissue repair, aid weight loss efforts, and more.
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in the body. They bind to receptors on cells and influence biological processes. Many peptides used therapeutically occur naturally, while others are synthetic but mimic natural peptides.
Potential benefits depend on the peptide but generally relate to tissue and cell repair, protein production, hormonal balance, and injury recovery. Documented effects include:
Imbalances in key hormones like testosterone, growth hormone, and thyroid hormones often occur with aging. Symptoms may include low energy, poor sleep, low libido, weight gain, and emotional changes.
Correctly diagnosing hormone deficiencies requires blood tests to check levels of specific hormones like testosterone. Saliva tests may also be used. Testing enables tailored peptide therapy.
Restoring hormonal balance is vital to overall wellbeing. Deficiencies left untreated allow symptoms to worsen over time. Prompt therapy can reverse many effects and prevent long term health consequences.
Initial consultations review health history, symptoms, and goals. Baseline blood panels help guide appropriate peptide selection. Follow-ups monitor progress.
Peptides come in injectable forms. Injections, given subcutaneously or intramuscularly, allow precise dosing. Typical injection schedules range from daily to once-weekly.
When properly dosed, peptide therapy has an exceptional safety profile. Side effects are minor – limited to site reactions or temporary tiredness as the body adjusts.
