Overview
Human growth hormone (somatropin) is the 191-amino-acid protein made by the pituitary gland. Prescription HGH is produced with recombinant DNA and supplied as a powder that is mixed before injection.
How it works
Growth hormone acts directly on fat and muscle and tells the liver to produce IGF-1, which drives most of its growth effects. It also raises blood sugar by making tissues less sensitive to insulin.
Chemistry
From PubChem, the US National Library of Medicine’s chemistry database.
Clinical reference
For adults with growth hormone deficiency, Canadian labels start around 0.2 to 0.3 mg a day (about 0.6 to 0.9 IU) and adjust every one to two months using IGF-1 bloodwork. One milligram is roughly 3 IU.
Label and guideline amounts are shown for reference only. They are not a recommendation, and we never give cycle or performance amounts. Any use belongs under a doctor’s care, with bloodwork.

Injection sites
Human Growth Hormone is a freeze-dried powder. After mixing with bacteriostatic water, compounds like this are usually injected subcutaneously (subQ): into the fat just under the skin with a short insulin needle.
- Volume per site
- About 1 ml or less
- Needle
- 4 to 13 mm insulin needle, 29 to 31G
Finding it. Anywhere on the belly at least 5 cm from the navel, avoiding scars and the belt line. Pinch a fold of skin and inject into it.
Why it is used. The most-used subcutaneous site: easy to see, plenty of fat and steady absorption. Weekly GLP-1 pens list it first.
Watch out. Move each injection 2 to 3 cm from the last to avoid hard lumps.
- Volume per site
- About 1 ml or less
- Needle
- 4 to 13 mm insulin needle, 29 to 31G
Finding it. The middle of the front of the thigh, a hand-width below the hip and a hand-width above the knee.
Why it is used. Easy to reach seated and a good second site to rotate with the belly.
Watch out. Absorption can be a little slower than the belly.
- Volume per site
- About 1 ml or less
- Needle
- 4 to 13 mm insulin needle, 29 to 31G
Finding it. The fleshy back of the upper arm, halfway between shoulder and elbow.
Why it is used. A third site to rotate through so each spot rests longer.
Watch out. Hard to pinch and reach on yourself; a helper makes it easier.
Why these sites for Human Growth Hormone
Subcutaneous (subQ)- Belly first. The abdomen has the most fat and the steadiest absorption, and you can see what you are doing.
- Short needle, small volume. About 1 ml or less per spot with an insulin syringe. Pinch the skin if you are lean.
- Move every time. Keep each injection 2 to 3 cm from the last to avoid lumps.
Every time: wash your hands, wipe the vial stopper and skin with alcohol, use a new sterile needle and syringe, and never share. See a doctor for spreading redness, heat, swelling, pus, fever or numbness. This is general guidance from standard nursing practice, not medical advice; a pharmacist or nurse can show you in person.
Combinations and interactions
Prescribed or used alongside
- Bacteriostatic water and U-100 insulin syringes are needed to mix and measure it.
- In medicine it is prescribed alone for deficiency, with thyroid and adrenal function checked first.
Drug interactions
- Insulin and diabetes medicines: HGH raises blood sugar, so doses may need adjusting.
- Thyroid hormone: HGH can unmask low thyroid function.
- Corticosteroids: can blunt its effect.
Risks and bloodwork
Swelling, stiff joints and carpal tunnel symptoms are the most common dose-related effects.
Insulin resistance and higher fasting glucose.
Long-term excess can enlarge hands, feet and organs.
HGH is one of the most counterfeited medicines; IGF-1 bloodwork shows whether it is active.
Bloodwork doctors check
- IGF-1
- Fasting glucose and HbA1c
- Thyroid function (TSH, free T4)
- Blood pressure
Not for
People under 18, anyone pregnant or breastfeeding, anyone with active cancer or a history of cancer, and anyone with diabetes unless a doctor is involved.
Canadian legal status
In Canada this is a prescription drug under the Food and Drugs Act. Using it under a doctor’s care, with bloodwork, is how it is meant to be used. This is general information, not legal advice.
