In daily life, many children experience delayed height and weight during their development, resulting in a significant gap between height indicators and bone age. This can lead to a significant difference in height compared to children of the same age group. So, do we need to get growth hormone treatment for young bone age?
Whether young bone age can be treated with growth hormone therapy depends on the specific situation. Because for children with short stature, the treatment method is targeted according to their underlying causes. Only children with short stature caused by a lack of growth hormone can be treated with growth hormone in clinical practice.
The treatment for delayed physical development caused by factors such as osteoporosis, calcium deficiency, zinc deficiency, hypothyroidism, and acid-base imbalance is targeted. For some children who have already experienced bone closure, even if growth hormone is injected for treatment, there will be no effect on height growth.
Growth hormone is a clinical prescription medication that requires a series of strict examinations of the child's body during treatment. Only when it meets the conditions for use can medication be used for treatment. Regular follow-up and monitoring are also necessary during the treatment period to better grasp the treatment status of the child.
During the process of injecting steroid drugs for treatment, the child's body often experiences a series of side effects, so targeted interventions and treatments are needed.
