Hi Karen,

We also dose at 3am. We began the schedule due to my daughter’s oversuppression signs (slow growth). At first I asked for a schedule similar to the one your son is on. Then many wise people posted and informed me that a 7am dose is essential due to this time being the highest peak of androgens and should definately NOT be skipped!! So once again, I wrote to the endo and aske to continue the same schedule theory but take it one step further. So now we dose at 3am, 7am, 12 noon, and 5:30. My daughter’s levels have stayed the same while her growth has gone from off the charts to 7th percentile last endo visit! We were satisfied it works. I do not have experience on haulting bone growth but others on here will be able to help you. I have heard others talk about being able to stop the bone growth so the height can be caught up. Good luck and welcome to this site! It has been a true blessing to me! Julia
