    insufficient production of growth hormone by the pituitary gland

    Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD) is a medical condition where the pituitary gland does not produce enough growth hormone, which is crucial for normal growth, metabolism, and overall development. In children, GHD can lead to stunted growth and delayed puberty, while in adults, it can result in decreased muscle mass, energy levels, and bone density.
