The decline in growth hormone (GH) is directly tied to the bulging, wrinkling, saggy, flabby, draggy creatures that we all sooner or later start to see in the mirror. Those of us with naturally lower amounts of hormone age much faster and more visibly that those of us who by reason of genes or high exercise level maintain a higher level of secretion for a longer period of time. The loss of the hormone with age is similar to that seen with menopause. And it has been given a similar name, the somatopause.
