How This Category Works
Clinical Overview
Your body uses the growth hormone (GH)–IGF-1 axis to support metabolism, body composition, and tissue maintenance. GH signals the liver and other tissues to produce insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), which helps carry out many downstream effects associated with GH.
Body composition changes rarely come from one lever. We look at sleep, training load, protein intake, stress, and relevant labs so we can decide whether this category fits your goals—and how to build a plan you can follow consistently.
Why IGF-1 matters: GH levels rise and fall throughout the day. IGF-1 stays more stable, so it often helps clinicians evaluate GH-related physiology in context.
What To Expect
A 3-Step Clinical Process
Labs Required (Baseline)
We require a CBC with differential and CMP for all peptide programs. For growth-hormone support, we also require IGF-1. You can provide recent results from your PCP, or complete labs with us (IGF-1 $60; CBC/CMP $40).
Plan + Follow-Up
We set check-ins and adjust based on response over time.
What We Assess First
- Sleep & recovery (Sleep Quality, Schedule, Stress Load)
- Training & Activity (Strength Training, Recovery Capacity)
- Nutrition Foundations (Protein, Consistency, Energy Balance)
- Metabolic Context (Weight History, Medications, Goals)
- Required Baseline Labs: CBC w/ Diff + CMP (Required for All Peptide Programs)
- Required for This Category: IGF-1
Who Growth Hormone & Body Composition Peptides May Fit
Quick criteria to help you decide if this category matches your goals before you schedule.
Good Fit
You may be a good fit if you want help with:
- Improving body composition habits with structured clinical accountability
- Supporting recovery capacity alongside strength training and nutrition
- Building a monitoring-based plan rather than guessing
May Need a Different Approach
You may need a different approach if you:
- Are pregnant or breastfeeding
- Have active cancer or are undergoing cancer treatment
- Have an endocrine condition that needs specialty management
We’ll confirm fit during your consultation and recommend the safest next step for you.
Pricing & Monitoring
Transparent program pricing, designed around clinical guidance and monitoring—not a one-size-fits-all product.
What Your Monthly Program Covers
Your monthly program supports consistent progress through clinician-guided planning, monitoring, and follow-up. We focus on the fundamentals that drive body composition changes—sleep, training, nutrition, and metabolic context—then refine the plan based on how you respond.

Options We May Discuss
Based on your goals and clinical review, we may discuss options related to GH/IGF-1 physiology and body composition support. We start with fundamentals—sleep, training, protein intake, and recovery—and then individualize next steps.
Availability & Prescribing Note: The specific options we may discuss or prescribe can vary based on current federal/state requirements and availability through appropriate channels. We finalize recommendations after your consultation and review.

Growth Hormone & Body Composition Peptide Therapy FAQs
Yes. We require baseline CBC w/ diff and CMP for all peptide programs. This category also requires IGF-1 when we discuss GH/IGF-1 support.
We recheck IGF-1 every 6 weeks for some options and dosing levels. If we discuss tesamorelin, we typically recheck about every 4 weeks. Checking IGF-1 helps us confirm your plan stays within an appropriate range and lets us fine-tune decisions over time with real data—not guesswork.
Yes. You can provide recent results from your PCP. If you prefer, you can complete labs with us (IGF-1 $60; CBC/CMP $40).
Most people notice progress when they follow the plan consistently over weeks to months. We track response and refine the plan as needed.
We review your goals and history, confirm required labs, and then build a clinician-guided plan with clear check-in timing. We adjust based on your response over time.
No. Availability can change based on current federal/state requirements and availability through appropriate channels.
