Well, the hormonal function of body are specific in function . The appropriate quantity of each hormone are necessary for normal body function. Similarly the growth hormones are usually produced by the pituitary  glands which stimulates the growth of organs ,bones and muscles etc.The more the growth hormone means there is happening of more growth hormone in the body which result in abnormally robust growth of every tissues .This overproduction of growth hormones can be due to benign pituitary tumor mostly.This lead to the over growth In children this disease is known as  gigantism while on the other hand in adults is  Acromegaly .

On the other the lower production of growth hormones means the stunted growth or low growth than normal in the persons  This may be due to tumor near the pituitary gland , may cause due to head injury of some type of infection

Hormone disorders take place due to overproduction of hormones by hyperactive glands or less production of hormones by hypoactive glands.


Overproduction of the growth hormone from the pituitary gland can cause a person to grow abnormally tall. This condition is called acromegaly and may cause complications. The gigantism is massive and sometimes results in an uncontrollable growth spurt. Apart from tumors in the pituitary gland, acromegaly may be triggered because of bumps in the lungs, pancreas, and parts of the brain


On the other hand, when the pituitary growth does not secrete enough growth hormones, it can cause a person’s rate of growth to slow down. This condition is called congenital growth hormone deficiency in children and acquired growth hormone deficiency in adults. Some reasons for this problem are severe head injury, brain surgery, insufficient blood supply to the pituitary gland, and tumor in the head.
