Patient's question:
When children use growth hormone, what age is it best to start using it? What kind of help do you care about: When children use growth hormone, what age is it best to start using it?Doctor's answer:
Dear Consultee,Your child is six years old and has a preschooler. It is recommended to first check if their height growth and development are normal. If they are above average, it is important to determine whether the issue is related to nutrition or if the hormone levels are too low. If the latter is the case, growth hormone therapy can be considered. This treatment can be initiated before the epiphyseal plates close, without age-related interference, but it is not suitable if the child has already gone through puberty.
