Sermorelin is a synthetic peptide that functions as a growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog. It stimulates the pituitary gland to secrete more natural growth hormone, promoting growth, cell regeneration, and increased metabolism. Unlike direct human growth hormone (hGH) treatments, sermorelin encourages the body to produce its own growth hormone, which can help mitigate some of the side effects associated with synthetic hGH administration. It's often used in anti-aging therapies, as well as for deficiencies in growth hormone in both children and adults. Sermorelin is valued for its capacity to boost natural hormone levels rather than replacing them outright.
