My son (10) is on about the 3rd year of GHD (started at about 7 and half). At 7, he was 3'6. At age 8, he is the same height as my youngest son at age 5. But he has grown over a foot over the last two and half years or so. He is about 10 and half now and at about 4'8 ish.

He's still short for his age, but within reason, last time we did a bone age scan, he had the bone age of a 6.5 year old. We were doing the daily injections, but just switched to the weekly ones (not overly happy with it).

Really don't have much to say, but good to hear that her got up to past 6' with the parents being shorter. He was adopted, so we don't know anything about the birth dad, but he his birth mom was short.

He has always had a bit of a stocky build, I have noted that he's gained a ton of weight in the last 2.5 years, and he is not nearly as fast as he was before hand (relative to his peers)

Do you remember having trouble with your body adjusting at the early years? We are not sure if he just gained too much weight too fast or if that is just his body type.

Skytrofa, and we only switched because of the shortage. Basically, it's now a 10 minute process. (Put the shot in let it mix for like 8 minutes, flip the thing back and forth 10 times, let it spit out air for a minute or two, then ready to go. On the 2nd time, we tried taking off the need cap while it was still spitting out the air, errored out in us and we had to throw away a weeks worth of medicine. Also, it's a lot more painful of a shot.

Np, and agreed. We fought it for as long as we could, he ended up missing like 2+ weeks once. It came up again so we just said switch.
