- Who are you?? You look very familiar.
- Im the human growth hormone! I regulate growth and various other things we use every day!!
- Ohhh I see! Well I think i'm healthy so I won't need you much longer.
- I thought that since now i'm fully grown you don't work anymore?
- Well when you were a little kid you needed me to fuse your growth plates and grow you bones, but now that you're an adult I just continue to help keep your bones and muscles healthy!!
- Well be lucky you were born with the right amount of me! Too little can result in dwarfism or very weak muscles/bones!
- Okay... well i'm taller than you so I dont get why I still need them.
- I do more then just control your growth! I regulate your metabolism and also maintain your blood glucose to help reduce your risk of heart disease!
- Well what if I was born with too many growth hormones?
- Too many is something called hypersecretion which can lead to a disease called gigantism in which the person grows unusually tall.
- How do you know where to start working?
- I get a call from the pituitary gland when I'm needed, then rush into the blood to quickly get to work!
- Well I'm glad I met you! Now I know exactly why human growth hormones are so important!
- Anytime! Feel free to ask questions whenever you need!!
