muscles and bones. The condition may be present from birth where the
cause can be unknown, genetic or due to injury to the pituitary gland
(during development or at birth). Side effects of growth hormone in children

3. What is differences between estrogen and testosterone?

ANS: Estrogen is key to the development of sexual functions and

characteristics in women during adolescence. This includes menstruation
and the reproductive cycle. It helps maintain that function throughout life.
It’s similar for men. But a particular form of estrogen known as estradiol
Trusted Source is especially crucial to male sexuality. Testosterone is the
most significant hormone to male sexual development and function. But
estrogen needs to stay in balance with testosterone to help control sex
drive, the ability to have an erection, and the production of sperm.
Testosterone naturally decreases as men age, while estrogen increases.
This isn’t much to be concerned about unless your estrogen levels are
abnormally high. This can be a risk factor for conditions like diabetes and
certain forms of cancer.
