Question: Side Effects/complications with Testosterone
| mama2js
- Thu May 17, 2007 12:50 am |
My 14 year old son was diagnosed with GHD (short stature/failure to thrive)at birth, he was on Steriods for a year when he was 11 and it helped with his growth...but since being off it, he has stopped growing again. His Endocrinologist is now giving him a series of Testosterone injections over the summer, so when he starts High School in the Fall...he will hopefully have 'caught up' some with boys his age. My concern is what the side effects and/or complications are with these injections. I asked his Doctor a million questions but never thought about this!!!
