Growth hormone deficiency. GHD means a person's body doesn't make enough growth hormone by itself. It is one of the main causes of poor growth in children. GHD may be present at birth or at any time during infancy or childhood. It is usually the result of the pituitary gland failing to produce enough growth hormone. Fortunately, growth hormone treatment does exist in the form of a commercially produced, biosynthetic hormone replacement therapy, such as Norditropin®. Biosynthetic growth hormone treatment is 100% identical to the natural growth hormone made by the body and has been safely manufactured using biotechnical methods since 1986.
