Height-increasing drugs do not exist
Avoid excessive anxiety and over-treatment
"Oral height-increasing drugs with direct growth-promoting effects currently do not exist. Some parents have too high expectations for their children's height and will let their children take some dietary nutritional supplements, There are also some manufacturers who, under the guise of 'height-increasing drugs', actually add banned drugs, which have a short-term effect of promoting height growth, but prematurely promote the closure of the epiphyseal line, which will affect the lifelong height of adults and even cause other side effects. " Ma Huijuan emphasized that children need balanced nutrition during the growth and development period. Vitamin D can be appropriately supplemented during periods of rapid height growth, such as infancy, early childhood, and adolescence. If the sun exposure and food are not sufficient, and the need for sudden height growth increases, then you can Take exogenous supplements.
As for the 11-year-old son of actor Deng Sha, whose height is 146 centimeters, Ma Huijuan said that according to the children's standard height comparison chart, this is a normal height. Parents should correctly understand the physical development patterns of children and avoid seeking excessive treatment due to excessive anxiety. needs to find the reasons for children who deviate from the normal level, and will provide guidance on appropriate nutrition, exercise, sleep and other lifestyle adjustments as well as necessary medical intervention.

Breast development in girls before the age of 7.5 or menarche before the age of 10, and testicular enlargement in boys before the age of 9 may indicate precocious puberty. In these cases, it is recommended to take the child to the hospital to check growth and development.
Maintaining a long-term growth rate in autumn and winter
It is important to sleep well and exercise well
Autumn is here in the blink of an eye, but parents are still paying more and more attention to the growth and development of their children. The Department of Pediatrics at Zhongshan Hospital of Zhejiang Province has also received inquiries from many parents. Many parents have found that their children grow very fast in spring and summer, but slowly in autumn and winter. Is there any way to maintain the growth rate? Children's allergies, rhinitis, bronchitis, asthma are prone to recurring attacks in autumn and winter, will they affect their growth?
Ma Huijuan said, Due to the slowdown of metabolism in autumn and winter, it is normal for children to grow at a slower rate than in spring and summer. In addition, occasional colds and coughs will not affect growth and development, so there is no need to worry too much. However, if allergic rhinitis occurs repeatedly, long-term adenoid hypertrophy, and severe nasal congestion affect the child's sleep, it may cause insufficient secretion of growth hormone and affect the child's growth.
"There is a positive correlation between the quality of sleep and the secretion of growth hormone. Good sleep quality and long deep sleep time will lead to sufficient growth hormone secretion. Therefore, it is important for children to go to bed early at night and sleep well." Ma Huijuan added In addition, daily outdoor exercise can also help children grow taller. Studies have shown that children who exercise regularly are on average 4-8 cm taller than children of the same age who do not exercise. In autumn and winter, it is recommended to do outdoor exercise when the temperature is suitable. Activities are mainly vertical sports such as jumping, touching height, and playing basketball.
