Morphology
The meaning is transparently compositional: 'hormone' (a chemical messenger) modified by 'growth' specifies a hormone that affects growth, and 'human' specifies the species, so the overall sense is directly inferable from the parts. This follows regular noun-modifier patterns found across many languages (e.g., Spanish 'hormona del crecimiento humano'), so a B1 learner who knows the constituent words will readily understand the MWE.
Etymology
Human growth hormone is a literal medical name: growth shows it 'helps the body grow', and hormone means a small chemical message from a gland in the brain. Imagine a tiny messenger telling cells to grow, so the name means the body chemical that makes humans grow and develop.
