A twelve-year-old girl who has not developed, height 150 cm, weight 35 kg

Patient's question:

No signs of development

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the general growth period is during puberty, and some may show it in one year. The growth of height is related to genetics and individual differences. You can take a knee X-ray now to check if there is a possibility of increased height. If the epiphyseal plate is closed, height will not increase. Otherwise, you can take calcium supplements or practice high jumping to promote height growth.
