Abstract
Hypersecretion of human Growth Hormone (hGH) is the primary mechanism driving Acromegaly, a disease characterised by abnormal growth of extremities and disfigured facial features. This article will discuss hGH secretion, its effect on Acromegaly, and potential treatments for the disease, among other key topics.
