How is pituitary dwarfism in children treated?

Ask
Hello doctor. My baby went to the hospital to be examined by the doctor and the doctor concluded that he had pituitary dwarfism. I want to ask if there is a cure for this disease? Thanks for the advice doctor.

Hello. Pituitary dwarfism is a growth hormone deficiency that can be inherited or acquired. Pituitary hormone supplementation is performed at the Children's Hospital under indications and under close supervision.
Therefore, for specific treatment, you and your family should take your child to the Vinmec Health System Hospital for an in-depth examination and consultation by a doctor. We look forward to meeting you and your baby to discuss more about your baby's health. Thank you for submitting your question to Vinmec. Best regards.
