Does dwarfism have a significant impact?

Patient's question:

A 8.5-year-old child, bone age test just 7 years old, growth hormone is too small, pituitary test just 0.22 cm

Doctor's answer:

There are many factors that affect height, such as genetics, nutrition, hormone secretion, exercise, etc. If you can generally reach over 170cm, then your height is considered acceptable. It is recommended that you enhance your nutrition, supplement with calcium and zinc to see if it helps.
