HGH Test Results

Growth hormone will be tested to the results on the growth deficiencies, the pituitary function reduction and pituitary tumors. The tests for HGH level include growth hormone stimulation test, test suppresion, somatomedin C and identify test.

To somatotropin hormone HGH deficiency and ebermaige HGH, we must somatotropin test. First, blood sample must be taken one hour to sleep, to generate an accurate readings. For men, 5ng/ml is the normal level of HGH and around 10ng/ml for women. As for children, they would be around 10ng/ml, but for newborns the range is between 10-40ng/ml. However, if there is a degree of HGH ebermaigen becomes acromegaly and gigantism. If level HGH deficiency leads to high accuracy dwarfism.

The indicator of HGH in the blood is the Somatomedin C test. This test is to detect any anomalies and pituitary cromegaly. The best part about this test is that it is not affected by the time the activity or nutrition. For adults, HGH the normal level in this test is between 42-110 ng /ml for girls between 0-8 years old, it would be 7-110 ng /ml, and for boys it is between 4-87 ng /ml . However, for girls 9-10 years old, the level is at 39-186 ng /ml, and for boys it is between 26-98 ng /ml Finally, for girls 11-13 years old, the ideal level of HGH is 66-215 ng /ml, and for boys would be 44-207ng/ml. The result of the ebermaigen level of HGH is to gigantism and acromegaly.

Another test is the Growth Hormone stimulation test or in another name, it is called insulin tolerance test or arginine. It is to test the ability of the body to produce human growth hormone. To carry out this examination, a substance known as HGH Releasing Factor is used. The Growth Hormone stimulation test is in a position to provide more accurate results than others. The ideal amount of HGH for this test is 10 ng /ml If there is a decline of HGH level means that it is very pituitary deficiency.

The last test we have to determine the HGH is the growth hormone suppression test. It is also known as glucose load test. This test is in a position to determine the ebermaige baseline level of human growth hormone. This test requires two different blood samples. The first is to be taken before glucose granted and the second is to be taken two hours after the glucose and injested. Then the HGH level based on the loading of glucose. Normally, the result of suppressed for HGH level is about 3 ng /ml If it is about 5 ng /ml, it is a sign of acromegaly.
