A member asked:
Can we stop my child's excessive growth?

Perhaps: First, you must find out if the growth is truly excessive or is it constitutional. The best person to consult on these issues is a pediatric endocrinologist. They can order the appropriate tests to determine if there is really a problem.

Depends : Do you mean excessive height growth? Or excessive weight growth.? If its height, see an endocrinologist. If its weight see your pediatrician.
