[quote=Anonymous]Is he eating? Sometimes a long pause in height can be from eating disorders, so you have to see what the weight is doing. Severe calorie restriction can lead to a decline in testosterone and retard bone development. Learning this the hard way: My 16yo DS secretly started restricting calories 1.5y go - fell from 50 percentile to <10th in weight. Half a year later, his height stopped too and is now <10th percentile for height too. We’re working hard to restore his weight in the hopes that height returns too before the end of puberty. [/quote]
