Patient's question:
The cost of treating idiopathic short statureDoctor's answer:
Hello dwarfism, this is caused by insufficient secretion of growth hormone. This requires hormone treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine has no effect on treating this symptom. Do not take medicine randomly. You can have your child tested for growth hormone to confirm the diagnosis.There are many reasons for short stature. To treat it, the cause must be identified first, which means making a correct diagnosis, and then considering how to treat it. Only by treating the specific symptom can a good effect be achieved.
Dwarfism caused by chronic kidney disease: Research results have reported that children with growth delay caused by this disease who receive growth hormone treatment experience an average height increase of 3-6 cm per year compared to those who have not received GH treatment.
