Campus Construction Update

Starting September 14, we’re closing the Menino building lobby entrance. This, along with the ongoing Yawkey building entrance closure, will help us bring you an even better campus experience that matches the exceptional care you've come to expect. Please enter the Menino and Yawkey buildings through the Moakley building, and make sure to leave extra time to get to your appointment. Thank you for your patience.

The growth hormone stimulation test measures the ability of the body to produce GH. Blood is drawn several times through an IV. The first sample is typically drawn in the morning, followed by an administered dose of growth hormone stimulant, known to encourage an increase in GH production. Several more blood samples will be taken at regular intervals. The entire procedure usually takes between 2-5 hours.
