The results of the studies on the pattern of insulin sensitivity (IS) are contradictory in patients with GH deficiency (GHD); however, the interference of the GHD onset stage, childhood or adulthood in the IS has not been assessed by euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp (EHC), a gold-standard method for the assessment of insulin sensitivity. In a prospective cross-sectional study, we assessed IS and body composition in 17 adults with hypopituitarism without GH replacement, ten with childhood-onset (COGHD) and seven with adulthood-onset (AOGHD) and compared them to paired control groups. COGHD presented higher IS (p = 0.0395) and a similar percentage of fat mass (PFM) to AOGHD. COGHD showed higher IS than the control group (0.0235), despite a higher PFM (0.0022). No differences were found between AODGH and the control group. In AOGHD and the control group, IS was negatively correlated with PFM (rs: −0.8214, p = 0.0234 and rs: −0.3639, p < 0.0344), while this correlation was not observed with COGHD (rs: −0.1152, p = 0.7514). Despite the higher PFM, patients with COGHD were more sensitive to insulin than paired healthy individuals, while patients with AOGHD showed similar IS compared to controls. The lack of GH early in life could modify the metabolic characteristics of tissues related to the glucose metabolism, inducing beneficial effects on IS that persist into adulthood. Thus, the glycometabolic findings in patients with COGHD seems to be not applicable to AOGHD.
