Growth hormone deficiency (GHD) is a complex endocrine syndrome, which is most commonly known to affect the pediatric population. In children, growth failure is often apparent by the end of the first or second year of life. Infants may experience hypoglycemic seizures or prolonged jaundice, and male infants may suffer from micropenis and undescended testes. One in every 4,000 school-age children is estimated to have GHD.
