Growth hormone is used to promote the growth and development of height, but it is not the same type of medication as hormones used in drugs. However, it cannot be used casually. If a child's height is significantly higher than that of their peers, it is advisable to visit the local children's department of a hospital for a follow-up examination and blood tests to check for growth hormone levels. If there is a significant deficiency, treatment should be administered under the guidance of a doctor in accordance with a prescribed course. Monitor changes promptly and carefully.
