"gigantism" is the answer. This is because gigantism is a rare condition that causes abnormal growth in children. This change is most notable in terms of height, but girth is affected as well. It occurs when your child’s pituitary gland makes too much growth hormone, which is also known as somatotropin.

The Endocrine System regulates the body's metabolism, growth, and functions of the sexual organs. It consists of glands that secrete hormones directly to the circulatory system that are carried throughout distant target organs. This system is responsible for controlling the chemical functions of cells, tissues, and organs through the secretion of different types of hormones. 

The Endocrine Systems includes the different glands (e.g. adrenal, parathyroid, thyroid, and pituitary), ovaries, pancreas, and testes.
