Sermorelin Peptide Therapy Guide

Sermorelin is a bioidentical peptide that represents the first 29 amino acids of human growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH). It is a well-regarded growth hormone secretagogue, meaning it stimulates the pituitary gland to produce and secrete the body's own growth hormone (GH). This mechanism is considered a more natural and safer approach to optimizing GH levels compared to direct injections of synthetic HGH. By binding to the GHRH receptors in the pituitary, Sermorelin enhances the natural, pulsatile release of GH, preserving the delicate feedback loops that regulate hormone levels in the body. Its primary use in anti-aging medicine is to counteract the age-related decline in GH (somatopause), which is associated with increased body fat, decreased muscle mass, poor sleep, and reduced vitality. By restoring more youthful GH pulses, Sermorelin helps to improve body composition, enhance recovery, and deepen sleep, all of which are key factors in lowering biological age.
