Guest guest Posted January 3, 2001 Report Share Posted January 3, 2001 Hi I look forward to reading Jodi's reply too but for what it's worth this is what my endo. told me. (we started GH today (!!) and Adam is 8 but I wanted to know his policy (thinking ahead as you do!). He told me that it would be a wait and see kind of thing. He would see a) how much growth we were getting and how much growth potential was left when Adam started puberty. At that time, if it was making some real good gains (ie. more than 1cm here and there) and he had some potential to grow left, then he would delay the puberty and continue the GH. That eased my mind somewhat only because, we on this site (and Magic) are well aware of the need to delay puberty but I wondered if this " Canadian " doctor was up on the trends. I guess so.
