Hypothyroidism in children---Not only will not grow taller, but will also become stupid!
For children and infants, hypothyroidism is even more terrifying! Why? Because hypothyroidism may be asymptomatic.
Especially newborns, sometimes even hypothyroidism, but because the mother's residual thyroid can maintain a supply for a period of time, so that the child will not have any symptoms, and the growth and development are normal.
In this case, if we do not check the thyroid function, we will miss the opportunity for treatment! For example, if it affects a child's intelligence, it will be regretted for life.
