Avatar m tn 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.
Avatar m tn 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).
Avatar f tn t undergone puberty yet. Still should I prefer this surgery? My short stature makes me feel inferior and worthless often.

1190279 tn?1324936257 Hi! Doctors will prescribe either clomid or letrozole to assist with ovulation. There's two main differences: it doesn't have anti-estrogenic side effects like clomid; and although studies have proven letrozole is an effective fertility drug it hasn't been approved by the FDA yet for fertility use, thus isn't covered by insurance (beware it's very expensive). Letrozole was developed to treat estrogen-sensitive breast cancers.
Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar n tn Are there males in the family that have small stature? Based on his weight / age, he should be consuming approximately 1800 calories per day as recommended the following: Fruits (limit fruit juices) = 1.5 cups; Vegetables 2.5 cups; Grains (cereals, breads) = 6oz equivalents; Meat & beans = 5oz equivalents; Dairy products (milk, yogurt) = 3 cups; Oils = 5 tsp; Additional calories to be used discretionary = 195. This food needs to be divided up between 3 meals and snacks between meals daily.
551885 tn?1300383822 watched what he is doing already he said to go baby proof our house ASAP cause he is WAY early with everything he is doing. This may actually be attributed to his short stature since he can balance better and get around easier. But all in all he is very healthy and that is all we really care about :) I like that he is doing all this stuff but I really want him to stay a baby for as long as he can. I am exhausted as it is now and he is just starting to crawl...
Avatar f tn Hi. The Sjogren Syndrome-like symptoms you have been experiencing are not the direct result of Tamoxifen (the symptoms are not an immune reaction to the drug), but due to the decreased circulating levels of estrogen induced by Tamoxifen intake. This implies that the symptoms you are feeling are not permanent, and should improve when you stop taking Tamoxifen. To answer your question: yes, long term use of Tamoxifen seems to indirectly cause Sjogren-like symptoms, by decreasing estrogen levels.
6889053 tn?1386025503 Hello, my husband and I have been trying to conceive since we've gotten married 8 yrs ago. I was diagnosed with pcos (polycystic ovarian syndrome) in 2006. I'm not overweight, and my cycles come every month but not consistently. Well, this entire month of Nov., I have not gotten my period. I thought I might finally be pregnant so I went to my dr. and the test was negative. How can this be?? I get my period every month, finally miss a cycle, and it's negative?
Avatar f tn I have been on letrozole for 5 months now and nothing.I had a miscarriage in march and have been taking this since march.The only side effects I have had are hot flashes in the beginning but I do get stabbing headaches occasionally.Has anyone else had to go from letrozole to something else that helped get them pregnant.

Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar f tn Anyone get pregnant using femara/letrozole after being given unexplained infertility diagnosis? How many months did you take it before you got your positive? Me: 28 Hubby: 30 Sperms analysis perfect, laparoscopy perfect, all tests for ovulation and ultrasounds looked perfect. Trying since 2012 no pregnancy yet This is my 2nd cycle on femara, next ovulation expected on 1/14. If 3rd cycle not successful, will do iui with femara anyone else done this and got pregnant? ?
1204794 tn?1300704113 I used to have 9 to 16 days of bleeding before letrozole! After being on letrozole, how many days are you bleeding? This is my second time with Letrozole and I had 9 days of bleeding the first time. By Day 5 I'm ready to quit letrozole because it makes my bones a bit achy, my breasts are super tender and less firm, and overall I feel like I constantly have a buzz that you get with one glass of wine.
Avatar f tn I have just been diagnosed with breast cancer and have been offered a trial on Letrozole before and after surgery along with radiotherapy. I would appreciate knowing any side effects when taken along with Lithium and mood swings suffered if any.
Avatar f tn My 14.5 year old son has short stature (Proportionate). He's 4'8". Unsure of cause. He eats healthy. Dr. Hasn't gotten back to me in almost 2 weeks (after calling) and I'm scared. From what I can tell it looks like he has anemia but no clue where it's coming from. He has a small bladder diagnosed in 2011. Can someone help, please? Thank you. If other info. is needed I can provide it.
652407 tn?1300737199 Hmm... not too sure. I don't know wether you have seen it, but IBM & National Geographic has some sort of campain called "The human gene project"? You write in, they send you a package with a mouth swab, you swab the inside of your mouth and they add it to their database and see if they can correlate you to other entries in the database and possibly trace your genetic origins. The problem tho, is that your genetics is a mixture between your mom and dad's.
