Human growth hormone (hGH) is a naturally occurring hormone that your pituitary gland secretes. It helps adults maintain normal body structure, encourages growth in children, and affects both children's and adults' metabolism.
Human growth hormone, commonly referred to as hGH and somatotropin, is a naturally occurring hormone that your pituitary gland produces and releases. It has a wide range of effects on the body and helps children grow. Although hGH no longer increases height once the growth plates in your bones (epiphyses) have fused, your body still need hGH. After you stop developing, hGH aids in maintaining a proper body structure and metabolism, including assisting in maintaining healthy blood sugar (glucose) levels.
Hormones are substances that communicate with your organs, muscles, and other tissues through your blood to coordinate various bodily operations. These messages instruct your body on what to do when. Over 50 hormones are produced by your body, and many of them interact with one another to form a complicated web of physiological processes.
So Somatotropin is another name for Growth harmone.
