Hi... I am a consultant in Kanchi Kamakoti CHILDS Trust Hospital in Chennai.

YOU NEED TO HAVE THE GROWTH HORMONE THERAPY UNDER THE GUIDANCE OF AN ENDOCRINOLOGIST. THE APPROXIMATE COST WOULD BE AROUND 10 LACS PER ANNUM.

This is just an approximation. If you could come over to Chennai and meet me, I will put you on to our Endocrinologist who is very good and experienced at this. We might get the medicine also for a lower cost.
