HCG vs. HGH: Which Is Right for You?

Picture of an older woman doing research online.If you’ve been looking into hormone replacement therapy, you’ve probably come across the abbreviations “HCG” and “HGH.” They sound similar, but are they the same thing? No, they’re not, and the one that’s right for you will depend on your personal goals. If you’re looking to shed excess pounds, HCG could potentially help you with your weight loss objectives. But if you’re seeking to reverse the aging process, HGH may be the better fit for your needs. We’ve compiled additional information about these two therapies below to assist you in making your decision.

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG)

If you’re hoping to lose weight, HCG is likely the better option for you. HCG is a hormone excreted by a woman’s placenta while she’s pregnant (if you’re a man, don’t worry—HCG injections are safe for males as well as females). When a pregnant woman and her fetus are hungry, her placenta excretes HCG, which in turn triggers the release of stored fat. This stored fat will sustain the woman and her fetus until their next meal.

This same idea applies to weight loss. If you’ve ever attempted a low-calorie diet, you’ve likely experienced unpleasant side effects including hunger, lightheadedness, fatigue, and nausea. These can make it tempting to give up on your diet and go back to eating higher-calorie foods. But if you undergo HCG injections while following a strict diet, the HCG will trigger stored fat to be released, which can reduce or even eliminate the side effects mentioned above and make it easier for you to stick to your diet.

Human Growth Hormone (HGH)

If your goal is to look and feel younger, HGH may be right for you. HGH is a polypeptide natural hormone excreted by the pituitary gland. As its name suggests, HGH is responsible for supporting human growth (it also helps maintain the body’s organs and tissues). As we age, our HGH levels begin decreasing, causing us to look and feel older. But with HGH injections, you could enjoy the following benefits:

  • Thicker hair
  • Younger-looking skin
  • Less accumulation of fat
  • Increased energy
  • Improved cardiac function
  • Enhanced athletic and sexual performance
