Can you grow one centimeter taller per month with hormones? Can it be changed after taking hormones?

Patient's question:

Increased by 1 cm, after taking growth hormone, is it enhancing its intended effect on this basis, or is it still just increasing by 1 cm? Due to an illness last year, I took medications like prednisone to suppress growth, so now I am nearly 10 cm shorter than my peers...

Doctor's answer:

In the developmental stage, it is recommended not to use growth hormone. Medical advice: Whether you can reach a height of seven inches depends on several factors. First, there is the generational inheritance factor, which accounts for 70%. Additionally, other conditions determine this, including physical activity, nutrition, environment, and social factors, etc. However, it is still advised to engage in more physical activity, maintain a balanced diet, and expect effective results. Keep up the encouragement!
1. Adjust your diet appropriately. Avoid overeating while ensuring sufficient nutrition and moderate restraint. Do not smoke or drink alcohol.
2. Maintain a regular lifestyle. Ensure deep, sufficient sleep that is timed, preferably on a hard mattress, with a pillow height of no less than 5 cm.
3. Pay attention to your health. Prevent illness, treat it if you have it, and seek early treatment if you do.
