The known side effects of human growth hormone seem to be predominantly dose dependent - that is, the higher the dose of HGH, the more likely it is that any given side effect will occur. It's important, then, to understand what is meant by "normal levels."
For children and adults that are deficient in HGH, replacement therapy seeks to put their blood levels back into the normal range. For these patients, the therapy alleviates many of the health affects of deficiency, and side effects of human growth hormone are relatively rare.
HGH side effects range from the minor joint pain and some fluid retention to the more serious high blood pressure and abnormal bone and cartilage growth. Most medicinal use of HGH focuses on short-term correction of a hormonal imbalance. General growth hormone side effects from this type of use tend to be fluid retention, joint pain, a reversible insulin resistance, and some joint swelling.
HGH side effects can come from any HGH use. Minimizing the side effects by lower the dosage and the length of time on the growth hormone can be helpful. Each person must weigh the benefits against the possibilities and decide if this course will help them reach their anti aging goals.
