Human Growth Hormone (HgH) somatotropin (STH
)To check if growth hormone treatment is working.
HGH or Human Growth Hormone is one of the most powerful weapons in the fight against aging. You can have it injected, but there are also ways to increase HGH levels in the body naturally. Human Growth Hormone increases muscle mass, reduces body fat, removes wrinkles, reverses the aging of hair, gives back the desire for sex and gives more energy.
Determine growth hormone, to check for excessive growth hormone production or to assess growth hormone treatment.
Conversion factor: 1mIU/l = 0.33 µg/l (tov NIBSC IS 98/574)
Reference value(s): result is normally smaller than 10.0 mIU/l.
To compare results between laboratories, ALL results reported for growth hormone should be multiplied by a harmonization factor.
Harmonization factor SKZL: 1.60
You still need to multiply all GH results by this factor! The reported reference value is no longer valid at that time.
