Genotropin Enhances Bone Density in American Males with Turner Syndrome: A 5-Year Study
Reading Time: 2 minutes Introduction Turner syndrome, a genetic condition characterized by the partial or complete absence of an X chromosome in females, has been increasingly recognized in males, albeit rarely. This condition can lead to various health issues, including reduced bone density, which increases the risk of osteoporosis and fractures. Growth hormone therapy, such as Genotropin, has been explored for its potential benefits in improving bone health. This article presents the findings of a five-year prospective study using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) to assess the impact of Genotropin on bone density in American males with Turner syndrome. Study Design and Methodology The study...
