Growth Hormone Deficiency Market Overview

Growth Hormone stimulates the growth of all essential tissues of the human body, including bone. Growth hormone deficiency (GHD) is a disorder that is caused due to the lack of growth hormones and is caused when the pituitary gland doesn’t produce enough concentration of human growth hormone also referred to as somatotropin. Several genetic disorders, such as Prader-Willi syndrome and Turner syndrome, might also be the reason for growth hormone deficiency in humans, leading to late puberty and shorter-than-average height. The condition can follow at any stage in a person’s life and treatments comprise growth hormone injections to stimulate growth.

Market Size and Forecast

The growth hormone deficiency market is expected to observe an attainable high CAGR during the forecast period, i.e., 2020-2028. The market is segmented by application, route of administration, distribution channel, and region. Among product applications, the Turner syndrome segment is expected to dominate the market on account of a surge in its incidence across the globe and better awareness of Turner syndrome in the medical community. Turner syndrome is a chromosomal abnormality in females, characterized by the partial or complete loss of one of the X chromosomes. As the syndrome is associated with many complications related to heart, hearing loss, autoimmune disorders, mental health issues, infertility, and pregnancy complications, the demand for treatment concerning growth hormones is growing.

Non-profit establishments such as Turner Syndrome Support Society (U.K.), Turner Syndrome Society of the United States, and Turner Syndrome Foundation celebrate “Turner Syndrome Awareness Month” every year and spread awareness about the condition via nationwide campaigns which were affected this year owing to COVID-19.

Growth Drivers
