Growth hormone deficiency (GHD) in adults has only recently been recognized as a specific clinical syndrome. Routine replacement therapy with corticosteroids, L-thyroxine and sex hormones has been considered as sufficient therapy for pituitary deficiency for the last 30-40 years, although it has been...
