Hello. Very Good morning. Please don't get dishearted and worrying unnecessarily. I think you should go for a preventive Health check up including Thyroid Function test & 25,Hydroxy vitamin.D 3. After getting the reports, kindly come to practo chat for your evaluation, counseling and treatment part. I think there is definitely a reason behind your retarted growth. Please don't ignore this and share my advice with your parents. You should have taken a consultation about this a Very long ago from a Paediatrician. Better late than never. Regards.
