Growth Hormone Peptide Timing

Meaning

The precise clinical strategy of administering Growth Hormone-Releasing Peptides (GHRPs) or Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone (GHRH) analogues at specific times of the day or night to mimic the body’s natural, pulsatile secretion pattern of endogenous growth hormone (GH). This strategic timing is crucial for maximizing the physiological release of GH while minimizing negative feedback mechanisms and avoiding desensitization of the pituitary gland. The objective is to optimize the anabolic and lipolytic effects of GH and its downstream mediator, IGF-1.
