How it is discussed

Secretagogues are different from synthetic HGH.

Growth hormone secretagogue peptides signal upstream pathways involved in natural GH release. They are not the same thing as replacing growth hormone directly.

1

Peptide injection

When prescribed, these products are typically used as subcutaneous injections with dose instructions set by the provider.

2

Pituitary signaling

Secretagogues work upstream of GH release rather than supplying synthetic HGH directly.

3

IGF-1 signal

Labs, metabolic risk, glucose history, and monitoring needs may all matter.

4

Fit and follow-up

The practical question is whether the option fits your training history, sleep, recovery goals, and follow-up needs. Individual outcomes vary.

Compare the approach

Secretagogue peptides vs. synthetic HGH.

Synthetic HGH is external hormone replacement. Compound Health focuses on compounded secretagogue peptides, when a licensed provider determines they are appropriate.

Growth hormone / muscle treatment FAQs

Is this synthetic HGH?

No. This page focuses on compounded growth hormone secretagogue peptide options, not synthetic HGH replacement.

Can I choose my own dose?

No. You can compare available options, but a licensed provider determines whether treatment and dose are appropriate.

Will I need labs?

That depends on your intake, goals, medical history, and provider judgment. A provider may request labs or recommend in-person care.

What product should I start with?

Start with the option closest to your question. Sermorelin is commonly discussed as a sleep-timed GHRH path, while tesamorelin is usually considered around body-composition review.

Are these medications FDA-approved?

No. These are compounded medication options. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved and require clinician review before any prescription.
