Despite the fact that the importance of the pituitary gland for growth was established in the late 1800s, growth hormone (GH) therapy for severely GH-deficient children and adolescents was not available until the late 1950s. Because of the scarcity of human pituitary-derived hormone, its use for other illnesses was limited. With the limitless availability of recombinant human GH (rhGH), the GH therapeutic landscape has shifted dramatically. The range of indications for GH treatment in children, adolescents, and adults is growing all the time. Join us live for Dr. Jaideep Khare's exclusive session to learn about all of the current indications for GH therapy.
