Overview
Growth depends on a balance of hormones. In children, slow growth or delayed puberty can have a hormonal cause. In adults, growth hormone deficiency can affect energy, muscle, body fat and wellbeing.
Dr. Joshi has served as a principal investigator in multinational trials covering Adult Growth Hormone deficiency, and the assessment is guided by that experience.
