No. HGH is chemically nothing like cocaine.
growth hormone
In bone formation, a deficiency of growth hormone will cause DECREASED PROLIFERATION OF THE EPIPHYSEAL PLATE CARTILAGE.
Lack of growth hormone may cause dwarfism. Growth hormone is essential for stimulating growth in childhood and overall development. Deficiency in growth hormone can lead to stunted growth and a condition known as dwarfism.
too much fluid intake and outtake before testing. (water, tea, etc...)
The most frequent cause of oversecretion of human growth hormone is a benign tumor in the pituitary gland called pituitary adenoma. This tumor can lead to excessive production of growth hormone, resulting in a condition known as acromegaly.
true
Growth hormone (GH) generally promotes growth and development, particularly affecting the proliferative activity of the growth plate, or epiphyseal plate, in long bones. Increased levels of growth hormone can stimulate the proliferation of chondrocytes, which are responsible for cartilage growth in this area. Therefore, growth hormone is unlikely to cause decreased proliferation at the epiphyseal plate; rather, it typically enhances it, leading to increased linear bone growth. However, excessive GH can lead to conditions like acromegaly, which may affect bone growth patterns.
True
Yes growth hormone i.e. Somatotrophic hormone control general growth of body.Its hyposecreation in children cause Dwarfism, in adult it can cause Simmond's disease.Its hypersecreation in children cause Gigantism and in adult Acromegaly
Growth disorders can be caused by a gland problem. The pituitary gland makes growth hormone, which stimulates the growth of your bones and other tissues. People can also have too much growth hormone. Too much growth hormone can cause gigantism in children, which their bones and their body grow too much. In adults, it can cause acromegaly, which makes their hands, feet, and face larger than normal. Possible treatments for growth disorders include surgery to remove the tumor and medical and radiation therapy.
Yes, a lack of growth hormone produced by the pituitary gland can result in short stature, known as growth hormone deficiency. This condition can occur in children and adults and may be caused by various factors, including problems with the pituitary gland itself or genetic factors. Treatment with growth hormone therapy can help to promote growth in individuals with this deficiency.
Yes, growth hormone can stimulate the breakdown of fats in adipocytes (fat cells) and promote the release of fatty acids into the bloodstream for energy use by the body. It does not directly cause fat accumulation within adipocytes.
