Overview

Growth Hormone (GH)

Growth Hormone (GH)

The Growth Hormone (GH) Test measures the concentration of Growth Hormone (also known as somatotropin) in the blood. GH is a crucial peptide hormone produced and secreted by the pituitary gland. It is essential for normal growth in children and plays a vital role in metabolism (regulating bone density, muscle mass, and fat distribution) in both children and adults.

Testing GH levels is complex because the hormone is secreted in a pulsatile manner, meaning its levels fluctuate widely throughout the day, often spiking after exercise, sleep, and meals. Therefore, GH is rarely measured alone; it is usually measured during suppression or stimulation tests.

At Augmentum Diagnostics, an NABL-Accredited Lab in Delhi, we perform specialized GH testing and dynamic function assays to accurately assess pituitary function.

Frequently asked questions on " Growth Hormone (GH) "

GH levels fluctuate wildly; a high random reading might just be a normal spike after a meal or during sleep, and a low random reading might just be a trough. Therefore, dynamic tests (stimulation or suppression) are required to prove that the patient's pituitary function is truly abnormal.

Yes, fasting is usually required for the GH test, and strictly so for dynamic tests like the GH Suppression Test. Specific preparation, including avoidance of certain drugs and exercise, is crucial and must be discussed with your physician.

GH and dynamic testing require precise timing, controlled conditions, and highly sensitive assays. Augmentum Diagnostics is an NABL Accredited Lab and one of the best pathology labs in Delhi. We adhere to strict protocols for sample collection and advanced immunometric assays for accurate GH and IGF-1 measurement.
