Growth Hormone (GH)
GH testing is not recommended for general screening. It is primarily ordered on those with symptoms of growth hormone abnormalities, as a follow-up to other abnormal hormone test results, or to help evaluate pituitary function. Periodic GH measurements may also be performed on children who have ha radiation treatment of the central nervous system or whole body irradiation prior to stem cell transplants. This is common in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), where irradiation of the brain can affect the hypothalamus and pituitary gland, thus affecting growth.
