Disease/Condition Glossary
Growth hormone deficiency: Growth hormone deficiency (GHD) is also known as dwarfism or pituitary dwarfism. It is a disorder characterised by low growth hormone levels in the body. Growth hormone-deficient children have abnormally small stature but acceptable body proportions. GHD can be congenital (existing at birth) or develop later in life (acquired).
Prader-Willi syndrome: Prader-Willi syndrome is a hereditary condition characterised by obesity, intellectual impairment, and small stature (shortness in height).
Turner syndrome: Turner syndrome is a chromosomal disorder in which a female is born with only one X chromosome.
Idiopathic Short Stature: Idiopathic short stature is sometimes defined statistically as height less than two standard deviations below the age- and sex-matched population.
Short bowel syndrome: It is a condition in which the body is unable to absorb enough nutrients from food due to a short bowel/small intestine.
