Growth Hormone Price in Bangladesh

What is Growth Hormone?

Growth Hormone (GH) is a peptide hormone produced by the pituitary gland that plays a crucial role in growth, metabolism, and cell repair. It stimulates growth in children and adolescents and helps maintain muscle mass, bone density, and tissue health in adults.

GH levels naturally fluctuate throughout the day and increase during sleep, exercise, and stress. Abnormal GH levels can indicate conditions like growth hormone deficiency (causing stunted growth or muscle loss) or acromegaly (excess GH leading to abnormal bone growth).

GH disorders are typically diagnosed through blood tests, stimulation or suppression tests, and imaging studies. Treatment may involve GH therapy for deficiencies or medications and surgery for excess production.

What to expect & how to prepare

A sample is collected at the centre and analysed in the laboratory. The sample type — blood, urine, stool or another body fluid — depends on the specific test, and the collection staff will tell you which one applies.

• Fasting: only some laboratory tests need fasting, and this varies test by test. Ask the centre whether fasting is required for this specific test when you book, rather than assuming.
• Medication: tell the laboratory about medicines, supplements and recent injections, because some can affect results.
• Requesting slip: bring the doctor's advice or previous reports so the laboratory runs and compares the right test.
• Report timing: turnaround differs between routine and specialised tests — the centre will tell you when your report is ready.

Have a registered doctor interpret the result together with your symptoms rather than self-diagnosing from reference ranges.
