Common Questions and Answers about Femara for short stature
femara
My 32 month old has been followed by a pediatrician for short stature (~5th percentile) and a persistent open fontanelle for the past 8 months. My son has more recently also been diagnosed with high myopia (approx -7 in both eyes). I have been concerned with no testing done for the fontanelle to rule out causes. The ophthalmologist has confirmed that high myopia like this in a child this age is very unusual and usually seen in a child with a syndrome or who was premature (he was not).
From birth there were few other symptoms of this person like short stature, squint,small hands,legs,swelling like lower body,large forehead(all operated corrected stature,eyes so not noticeable except weight gain on lower belly).All kinds of chromosal genetic testing done it came back negative for any other conditions except thyroid which was self diagnosed as doctors were saying everything was alright.
gov/media/75520/download Personally, I do think it is hard for boys to be of short stature and advanced bone age can have other implications later on. I'd consider trying it but that is totally a personal choice. I do not like to give my kids medication but I saw the impact on my nieces lives to become 'more normal' and it was a positive.
I took Femara and got pregnant when also doing injections. I had unexplained infertility. It appeared my eggs were not maturing on their own and I kept getting cysts. I am now 19 weeks pregnant. My treatment was femara, injection for 3 days, HCG shot and IUI. Your doctor will find a treatment that will work for you. Keep your hopes up. I remember choosing to not be stressed out about whether I was going to get a positive or not and it worked for me.
Good Luck!!!

There is multiple situations in which are current understand of growth plate closures is contradicted for example, we believe if the growth plates are undetectable by x-ray they are closed I beg to differ there are multiple example of people developing acromegaly in their late 20s or early 30s and due to the excess growth hormone released they have grown substantially in stature which under are current understand is impossible I can point you to a specific case Tanya angus she developed acro

My husband and I were on Clomid and Ovidrel for the past 4 months with no luck. I recently went in for a diagnostic test to see if my tubes are blocked. Everything looks great so I am relieved...sort of. I feel like if I had a reason why I am not getting pregnant, this would be easier. My husband and I had 2 miscarriages in the last 2 years so we are worried that when it does happen again, we will find ourselves in teh same situation.
It was only confirmed with a lapascopy. The markers continued to stay around 80 for the six months I was taking chemo. I went off all meds in Jan. Since mid Feb to mid Apr my markers went to 180. I started Femara in early Apr. After one month, marker went down to 170. About the same time I started Femara, I have constant sever pain in my right rib area and now pain in my lower right skull. Bone scan was negative.
d take on CD 3-7 or so), and then of course there are injectables, which are much stronger than clomid and femara. Those all help the follicles grow, and that can often help with a short luteal phase, as well, because it usually leads to higher progesterone levels after O. However, you could also ask for a progesterone supplement to take after O has been confirmed to lengthen the luteal phase.
Is there an RE in your area? If so, I would suggest seeing and RE instead of an ob/gyn.
There is something that runs in the women of my family. I only know as far back as my great great grandmother, who had red hair and short stature(about 5'2). My grandmother is just slightly taller, with red hair and a very gradual weight gain. My mother is 5'3, red hair, she has started to gain weight and she has a hypothyroid problem. Like my mom who suffered from cold hands and feet all her life I also suffer from it, which is a symptom of hypothyroid.
