Growth hormone deficiency is associated with the pituitary <span>and hypothalamus glands. So, it must be that these are the glands that are involved in dwarfism. But, most likely it is the pituitary gland. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. </span>

Answer: Pituitary Gland

Explanation:

Pituitary dwarfism or the growth hormone deficiency is the condition in which the pituitary gland of the body does not makes enough hormone.

This results in a slow growth in the child and it results in small stature. The height of the child does not increases and and other growth related characters are also not found at the right time.

This is so because the growth hormones are not released from the pituitary gland.
