Will the child grow taller? Master the golden period and have medicine and medicine

Taichung Rongzong Research found that 13% of children with short stature can be treated. Parents who have received a referral notice for children with insufficient height, don’t worry. Seek medical attention correctly and grasp the golden treatment period before the age of 15 to have a chance to return to normal height. —————————————One month into the school year, schools begin health inspections, and parents also begin to receive various forms. Among them, students with insufficient height in all grades of junior high school and elementary school will receive referral notices. Luo Fusong, chairman of the Child Growth Association, reminded that if parents receive a written notice, they must take their children to the pediatric endocrinology department for further examination and prescribe appropriate medicines in advance. Because according to research by Taichung Rongzong, 13% of children with short stature can be treated. A study by Taichung Rongzong University found that 38% of the 655 students with short height problems referred by their schools had constitutional growth retardation and delayed bone age growth. Their height will slowly make up, as long as they are tracked regularly every six months. Understand how your child is growing; 13% of schoolchildren have treatable height problems, including Turner\’s disease, congenital growth hormone deficiency or precocious puberty. Currently, the Taiwan Health Insurance Bureau covers the injection requirements for Turner\’s disease and congenital growth hormone deficiency. As long as you grasp the golden treatment period before the age of 15, you have a chance to return to normal height. (If the height of children in junior middle school or primary school is below the standard, they must report to the pediatric endocrinology department; provided by Chang Geng physician Luo Fusong) Turner\’s disease, congenital lack of growth hormone injectable growth hormone injection, Chairman of the Children\’s Growth Association Luo Fusong explained, through Neal\’s disease is a chromosomal abnormality. If left untreated, the average height is about 140 centimeters. Growth hormone injections can be used to help people grow taller. After treatment, they can grow to about 150 centimeters to 157 centimeters. For example, he gave an example: Youting, a sixth-grade primary school student in the outpatient clinic, has been shorter than other children of the same age since she was a child. When she was a child, she was only 98 centimeters tall. The doctor diagnosed her with Turner\’s disease. After five years of growth hormone treatment, her height has improved. He is now 136 centimeters tall. He grew 38 centimeters in five years. People born with growth hormone deficiency can also be helped to grow taller by injecting growth hormone. Luo Fusong said that most people who use growth hormone to treat growth hormone deficiency will grow significantly in the first year, and can grow about 10 centimeters in the first year. There is also room for growth of 7 to 8 centimeters in the second year. Mr. Yang, now 29 years old, was only 130 centimeters tall when he was in the second grade of junior high school. He was diagnosed by a doctor as being born with growth hormone deficiency. After two and a half years of treatment, he grew to 172 centimeters in two years. I grew 40 centimeters in two and a half years. Although the effects of growth acupuncture are amazing, the treatment process is difficult. Children must receive acupuncture every night before going to bed, and the treatment process lasts for at least three years. Luo Fusong suggested that sleeping for 8 hours a day can also promote the secretion of growth hormone; exercising three times a week for 30 minutes each time will make the heartbeat reach 130 beats, which will stimulate growth hormone and help grow taller. You can run, swim, Cycling, playing footballball. You should also get enough sleep, 8 to 10 hours. Precocious puberty can be injected with injections that inhibit puberty to help grow taller. Due to a Westernized diet and excessive intake of sweets and high-calorie foods, it has been clinically found that children have precocious puberty and enter puberty early, which may lead to premature closure of the growth plate. Therefore, precocious puberty is treated clinically with injections that inhibit puberty. Luo Fusong emphasized that the medical definition of \”precocious puberty\” in children refers to the development of secondary sexual characteristics (whether boys have testicles, penis, and pubic hair; whether girls have breasts or pubic hair) before the age of 9 for boys and before the age of 8 for girls. pubic hair). \”After breast development, the height can only grow about 20-25 centimeters,\” Luo Fusong said. As for the conditions for health insurance benefits for precocious puberty treatment, the bone age must be detected to be more than two years ahead of the actual age; the estimated future adult height will be less than 153 cm for girls and less than 165 cm for boys, and it needs to be tracked for more than half a year. Luo Fusong emphasized that patients with short stature in outpatient clinics are usually first judged as \”short and thin\” or \”short and fat.\” Short and thin type refers to short stature but lighter weight. It is usually caused by chronic diseases or nutritional deficiencies. As long as the underlying cause is improved, you can grow taller without relying on growth hormone. Children who are short and fat may have a growth hormone deficiency if they are of normal weight or overweight. Luo Fusong suggested that parents should look at the growth curve between ages when observing their children\’s height. Some schoolchildren\’s heights were normal in the first few years. If there is a decline or stagnation, special attention should be paid. For example, the original body proportion of 50% suddenly dropped to 15%. In addition, you should also drink less sugary drinks in your diet. \”If you drink a 500cc drink, the secretion of growth hormone will be suspended for 2 hours.\” Luo Fusong also said that children should be less exposed to chicken butts and animal testicles containing animal hormones to avoid inducing precocious puberty.
