title: [Growth hormone in the newborn infant during the first 6 days of life].
abstract: Human Growth Hormone (HGH) of the newborn during its first days of life is approximately 61 ng/ml, then it falls between the third and fourth day. This fall in serum concentration principally occurs when the infant stops losing weight and starts regaining it. Experiences show that HGH of newborn does not stem from the mother.
