What is HGH?
HGH stands for human growth hormone. It is a protein distinct from both GHRH analogues and IGF-1 analogues.
The NLM substance description identifies human growth hormone as a polypeptide containing 191 amino acids. HGH is therefore a much longer amino-acid chain than a tri- or pentapeptide.
HGH, GHRH and IGF-1 are separate names for separate molecules. Tesamorelin, Ipamorelin and IGF-1 LR3 appearing in related literature does not make them alternative names for HGH.
