Answer
Analysis of Condition: Hello, the main issue with the baby at the moment seems to be poor physical development, which may be related to insufficient nutritional intake. Suggestions: It is recommended that you take the baby for an endocrine examination, including the detection of trace elements and hormone growth levels. In terms of daily care, attention should be paid to supplementing the baby’s nutrition, which can include appropriate calcium supplementation and taking stomachic and digestion-promoting oral liquid to enhance appetite. Doctor’s Inquiry: Hello, is there anything else you would like to ask? Additional Question: If growth hormone deficiency is discovered now, is it too late for treatment? Answer: The timing for treating growth hormone deficiency depends on the baby’s age and current growth status. The sooner it is discovered and treatment begins, the better the effects are usually. Even if the baby’s age is relatively high at this point, there may still be value in treatment to promote growth and improve overall development. It is recommended to consult a specialist doctor for a detailed evaluation and to develop an appropriate treatment plan.
