Humatrope (Somatotropin) is a growth hormone of the anterior pituitary gland secretion is controlled by the hypothalamic neurohormones - somatostatin (inhibits) and Somatoliberin (releases). During puberty, the degree of secretion in the body reaches its highest value, when more tissue growth, protein deposition and breakdown of the subcutaneous adipose tissue. Later growth hormone decreases, but remains present.

Since, Somatotropin present in the body is a sequence of 191 amino acids which has been isolated by researchers for therapeutic purposes, especially for treating hypopituitarism. This appears to be an effective treatment for dwarfism, when therapies begin in adolescence.

Since, the action of growth hormone in the body is very short, the standard dose is in the range of 4-12 IU per day.

When the hormone is gradually removed from the body, Growth hormone itself should be given over many months and the minimum cycle should last for 6 weeks. Shorter cycles are only makes sense if our goal is to burn fat. Peak plasma concentration achieved after 2-6h after injection.

However, Growth hormone after prolonged use creates new muscle fibers. It is required to combine HGH with other pharmacological agents in order to achieve the best possible results. During treatment with somatropin body needs larger amounts of thyroid hormones, insulin and androgens (the use of HGH reduces the level of thyroid hormone and insulin). Adding products containing thyroid hormones will greatly increase the teratogenic effect of the cycle.

Exogenous insulin also increases the sensitivity of receptors for IGF-1 and reduced levels of IGF-binding proteins allowing free circulation of more IGF-1. Androgen will favor the anabolic effect of treatment, increasing the size of muscle cells (HGH increases their number). The steroid may also increase free IGF-1 by reducing protein binding him. The correct combination of the measures mentioned above (HGH, anabolics, insulin, T-3) will provide significant synergistic effect, resulting in very satisfactory results. It should, however, note that both insulin and T-3 are means very strong, carrying additional high risk.

HGH enhances glucose metabolism in the liver, blocks the action of insulin and essential for many metabolic processes. As a result, it mobilizes the resources of fat that the body can use fatty acids as the main source of energy. It protects the muscle proteins from breakdown.
