The Growth Hormone (HGH) test is a diagnostic examination used to measure the levels of human growth hormone in the blood. HGH plays a crucial role in growth, cell repair, and metabolism regulation. This test is often employed to assess growth-related issues in children or to investigate certain medical conditions in adults. Abnormalities in HGH levels can indicate conditions such as growth hormone deficiency or excess. In children, the test helps identify growth disorders, while in adults, it can be used to diagnose or monitor conditions like pituitary gland disorders.
