Patient's question:
What should I do if my child has been taking growth hormone for a month but is now unwilling to continue? What kind of help do you need: What should I do if my child has been taking growth hormone for a month but is now unwilling to continue?Doctor's answer:
In this case, at least the treatment needs to be tolerated. It can be done by treating and monitoring simultaneously, and it is usually started with a small dose. The earlier the treatment, the better the effect. If the baby's height and weight gain are within the normal range, and the baby is in good spirits, this situation should be maintained at least until puberty. This issue requires good communication with the child; there is no perfect solution. Growth hormone is a long-acting preparation and is administered once a week.
