Question
My child is very reluctant to take growth hormone. Do I really have to insist on it? What kind of assistance is needed?
Answer
Firstly, a sufficient dosage of treatment that has already begun ensures the effectiveness of the initial treatment, and the first 3-6 months are a crucial period for building the patient’s confidence in treatment. The patient’s confidence in enduring the treatment is a very important factor. Secondly, the value that growth hormone brings to patients is far greater than the price of the medicine itself. Its effects are also quite significant, and the cost is also quite reasonable.
