GH shots -- self injection

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

I have a question. At what age should kids on growth hormone give

themselves their own shot? Also, why should kids on growth hormone

give themselves a shot.

I give his shot at night while he sleeps. He asked to do it

that way and it has worked for us. However, recently I was told by a

medical professional that should be giving himself his shot. So

I was wondering why should I make this change and at what age?

Thanks for you input
