Acromegaly Market Insights
In the domain of healthcare, the Acromegaly Market focuses on addressing the complexities of acromegaly, a rare hormonal disorder characterized by excessive growth hormone (GH) production in adulthood. Acromegaly diagnosis plays a crucial role in identifying individuals affected by this condition, which often manifests gradually over time. Diagnosis typically involves a combination of clinical assessment, hormone testing, and imaging studies to evaluate the presence of elevated GH levels and assess the extent of tissue overgrowth. Early detection of acromegaly is essential for initiating timely interventions and preventing potential complications associated with the disorder.
The Acromegaly Market is projected to reach USD 767.5 Million by 2030 at 5.10% CAGR during the forecast period 2022-2030.
This rare disease affects an average of 5-8 people for every 100,000 individuals. Lack of treatment can lead to high chances of morbidity. As a result, there is a high demand for the treatment of acromegaly. Consequences of the disease that often needs further treatment include blood pressure problems, type 2 diabetes and high risk of cardiovascular diseases. Increasing occurrences and diagnoses of hormonal diseases combined with government support toward the treatment of such diseases will likely lead to market growth. Moreover, technological advancements and research & development activities are fuelled by the demand for effective treatment. However, surgeries for treatment of acromegaly are expensive, and the lack of effective treatment for the same is expected to hinder the growth of the acromegaly market.
This hormonal disorder is diagnosed in those with a heavy secretion of growth hormones from the pituitary gland. This can result in enlarged hands, feet and an abnormally enlarged face. Limited treatment methods are available. However, acromegaly is an incurable condition that may sometimes go into remission by itself.
