This is good news. Being a patient with hypopit, I think I should take my growth hormone more regularly.
ReplyDeleteIndeed I've gained weight, especially round the waist, since I got Sheehan Syndrome.

Hi, Laika. Thank you for your comment. From what I've read, as long as the GH is within normal limits for age, then it is not implicated for those pathways. I know there is some controversy on the subject, though.
