Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello Dr My son is 2 years and 8 months. He has no speech at all. He babbles a lot but not much meaningful. He sometimes say papa or mama but never to us. He is an active child but he responds to his name say only 6 out of 10 times.He listens very attentively to rhymes and songs at tv. He says vowels aa ee, o.. He loves to be cuddled by me and his dad.he is vry aggresive at times sort of out of control. He knows his safety well. He plays with his toys with full interest and can do puzzles also of his age. His eye contact was poor earlier but now it has improved. Also he used to run non-stop, spin and head bang when he was two but once he went to playschool he left all these habits.

Hello,
Has your child been assessed for thyroid status? As low thyroid is the common cause of such symptoms. Also, get your child assessed for autism by a neurologist.
