Patient: My baby found unusual signs in the afternoon when he was 22 days old, he slept from noon after breastfeeding until more than 7:00 p.m. At first, I thought my child was comfortable sleeping and didn’t wake him up, but later I woke him up and didn’t eat milk, and he had no energy and wanted to sleep. The hospital doctor said to use hormone treatment need to be divided into mild and severe may have to take a lifetime. I would like to ask: Does my baby have to take hormones to be treated? Do they have to be taken for life? What will happen if I don’t take the medicine urgently or if I have to stop taking it later? Will something happen? Expert: This medicine is to supplement the hormones that children’s bodies lack. There are many kinds of hormones in the human body, and if the level of a certain hormone is low, it will cause great harm to the body. If the hormone levels are monitored regularly to ensure that they are within the range needed by the body, the treatment is still effective. To have another child, prenatal diagnosis is needed. First of all, the whole family should have a genetic diagnosis to confirm which gene is the problem. Patient: What is the cause of this disease? Will I still have this disease if I have a second child? The key is that the child is only 20 days old and is still on oxygen, so I want to ask if he is lifelong. Expert: It is a genetic metabolic disease, the parents are carriers, the child is likely to get the disease, the next child is still the possibility of the disease is 25%, quite high. Although the treatment of the disease is lifelong, but only oral medication, on life and learning nutrition is not much. Some boys are fine without medication as adults.
