Secretropin is the first clinically proven natural stimulator of growth hormone production, and is gaining the medical community's acceptance as a more desirable "first step" approach to pursuing hormonal balance. In October 2006, an initial study group of 50 individuals was employed for a prospective, 12-month study on the product's efficacy on increasing IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 levels. As this study approached completion in January 2008, a subsequent study design was begun to include multiple centers for a continued long term assessment of the product's efficacy. We anticipate employing hundreds of new patients. It is the goal of these studies to constantly show the efficacy and related benefits from an amino acid complex growth hormone stimulator.

Monitoring
Secretropin works
within the body’s regulatory mechanisms to increase the amount of growth hormone
that is produced and released by the anterior pituitary gland. In response to an increase in the production and
release of growth hormone, the body’s natural tendency is to decrease
the level. Normally, there is an up and down production of growth
hormone throughout the night and early morning. Your doctor will run
blood tests that can still show that there had been an increase in
the production of growth hormone and IGF-1.

GH,
IGF-1, and IGFBP-3; The
Relationship
Growth Hormone: The half-life of human growth hormone in serum is about 20 minutes, making it an unreliable hormone to measure on a random basis since its measurement represents merely a snapshot of the blood.
Urine Growth Hormone: Either by 24 hour or first morning urine testing, the level of human growth hormone can be accurately measured. This mode of testing in conjunction with IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 is gaining ground as a reproducible means of diagnosing Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency.
Insulin-like Growth Factor-1: The half-life of IGF-1 has for many years been accepted as being 20 hours, while in fact, it is only 8 minutes. The extended half-life is based upon its prolonged survival in the blood when attached to the carrier protein IGFBP-3. Therefore, like measurement of GH, IGF-1's short half-life make its random testing unreliable.
IGF Binding Protein-3: This protein is responsible for binding to IGF-1 thereby extending its half-life from 8 minutes to 20 hours. Free or unbound BP-3 has a half-life of 20 hours. This makes BP-3 an ideal inferential marker for growth hormone since (so far) only GH, Estradiol and Quercitin increase the production of IGFBP-3 from the liver.
Ideally, all three of these tests need to be low in order to support a diagnosis of Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency. Due to Secretropin's ability to increase GH/IGF-1 and BP-3, we recommend an initial three month trial in any patient that is non-medically challenged before deciding on injectable Growth Hormone. As always, the final decision will be between the doctor and the patient.
