This animated clip explains that some children stay smaller than average because their bodies don’t produce enough growth hormone. If the doctor can’t actually see any reason for this, tests have to be carried out in the hospital. And if your body isn’t producing any growth hormone itself, you have to have an injection in your thigh, tummy or buttock every evening. As a result, you will grow and get to be just as tall as all your friends.
