GHRH Analogue Administration

Meaning

GHRH Analogue Administration refers to the clinical practice of introducing a synthetic compound that mimics the action of Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone (GHRH) into the body. These analogues, such as Sermorelin or Tesamorelin, stimulate the pituitary gland to secrete its own endogenous growth hormone (GH) in a pulsatile, physiological manner. This therapeutic approach is distinct from administering exogenous GH, as it maintains the natural feedback loops of the hypothalamic-pituitary-somatotropic axis. It is utilized to address age-related decline in GH and IGF-1 levels, aiming for improved body composition and metabolic function.
