Guest guest Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 Hello everyone, I've been a member for several years and have had the pleasure of reading all the posts from all the RSS families. I was wondering if anyone can help explain the whole delaying of puberty issue... I'm concerned that my daughter may start her period sooner than I would like and of course that would in turn affect her growth, right? is 10 1/2 years old (51 inches and 47 lbs) and has some signs of puberty and I have taken her in to see the endocrinologist and they did a bone age (which they said was 6 months behind) so it was not recommended that she be placed on any meds to delay puberty. Right now, they are predicting that her final height will be around 5 feet. I guess I'm confussed... she could start her period any time now but could it also be 1 or 2 years from now? What does the bone age indicate? I've put in a call to her endo but they are out of the office so I thought I would use my other resources. Thanks for all your support and help.
