What is Sermorelin?
Sermoreline is a synthetic medication that contains growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH). It’s used as a treatment to help people that have low levels of hGH.
In fact, sermorelin and other forms of GHRH have been embraced by many health professionals in this field as one of the most effective ways to treat somatic senescence (aka naturally low levels of hGH).
It’s used as a treatment in children with poor growth, as well as adults that are experiencing an hGH deficiency that’s starting to impact their health. These hGH peptide benefits then allow their bodies to follow natural growth patterns necessary to reach a healthy adulthood.

Get Started NowHow Does Sermorelin Work?
Sermorelin works by assisting our bodies with controlling our production of hGH through increasing levels of GHRH being secreted by your hypothalamus.
These GHRH molecules then tell your pituitary gland to release hGH into your bloodstream, which regulates your body’s growth.
As it continues to be studied, some people are starting to think of sermorelin injections as a form of anti-aging therapy, as well. This is because of the effect these treatments may be able to restore natural hGH peptide benefits in some patients.
You should switch your sermorelin injection site regularly to avoid irritating the same are with too many concurrent uses.
The Benefits of Using Sermorelin
Studies are still limited for this new type of hormone replacement therapy, but some evidence has shown that sermorelin peptide injections may increase not only the natural production levels of hGH in your body, but also:
- Improve general well-being
- Reducing your body mass

- Increasing your libido
You should take your sermorelin injections at the same time each day. For the best effects, it’s suggested that you take them in the evening.
How to Inject Sermorelin

The differences between sermorelin vs ipamorelin
While both of these medications are used in hGH therapy, there are some distinct differences between sermorelin vs ipamorelin (Nature World News).
Most notably, sermorelin injections are used to extend the duration of growth hormone release, over a longer period of time. On the other hand, ipamorelin has a larger effect, which causes a greater spike in hormone levels, more quickly after being taken than sermorelin.
