Hormones are chemical substances that coordinate the activities of living organisms and their growth.

The growth hormone is secreted by the endocrine pituitary gland located at the base of the brain. It controls the overall development or growth of the body, development of muscles and bones.

Excessive secretion (hypersecretion) of growth hormone makes a person very tall (gigantism).
