[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a girl being monitored by an endocrinologist. No interventions yet, but she's had blood work and is being monitored. She was 50th percentile for height and weight from birth all the way up until 4th grade, but has dropped 10 percentiles per year every year since, falling off her growth curve. Now as a 12 yo 7th grader she's under the 10th percentile. She wears a size 2 shoe and is 4'8" tall. She has started puberty and her bone age matches her age, so there is some concern she won't make 5' tall. Both parents are 5'8", so there's no reason to expect her to be so small. (She's of German/Irish/English heritage.)[/quote] Has she been screened for genetic disorders or any other syndromes? Anything else seem off about her other than the growth? This seems highly unusual [/quote] Agree with this. Has the endocrinologist ordered a karyotype or other genetic screening? [/quote]
