[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for all the responses so far. We did already see three different endocrinologists over the years. A previous X-ray of the wrist for bone age didn’t show any constitutional growth delay. The bone age matched his chronological age. DS is only about 1 percentile in height so will be only a little more than 5 feet tall, unless he has some unexpected height added at growth spurt like some male relatives. Probably more important for him to not lose an inch in height than to get good grades in middle school, taking a long term view? Although the psychological impact of failure and others constantly frustrated with him is also a concern. So I was hoping to hear what others have experienced in terms of medications and expected height (e.g., any drop on growth curves).[/quote]
