Ke hopohopo nei ʻoe no ka ulu ʻana o kāu keiki? E kamaʻilio kākou e pili ana i kēia mau maʻi ulu

Ma ke ʻano he makuahine a makua paha, ua manaʻo paha ʻoe i kēia ʻano i kekahi manawa. He mea maʻamau ka manaʻo he pōkole iki kāu keiki ma kahi hana ʻohana, a i ʻole ma ke kula, a i ʻole i ka wā e noho pū ana lākou me nā keiki ʻē aʻe o ka makahiki like. Ke noʻonoʻo ʻoe i ia mea, e hopohopo paha ʻoe, "Ke ulu pono nei anei kaʻu keiki?" Akā, ʻaʻole i nā manawa a pau, ʻo ke kino pōkole o ke keiki he hōʻailona ia o kahi maʻi koʻikoʻi. I kekahi manawa hiki nō hoʻi ke holo i loko o ka ʻohana. Akā, he mea nui loa ka makaʻala i kēia. No laila, i kēia lā, e kamaʻilio kākou e pili ana i nā maʻi ulu i nā keiki.

Pehea ka maʻamau o ka ulu ʻana o ke keiki?

Aia kekahi mau pae koʻikoʻi e hiki i kahi keiki ke hahai e ʻike ai inā e ulu pono ana lākou. He mea kōkua nui iā ʻoe ke loaʻa kahi manaʻo iki e pili ana i kēia mau mea.

E nānā pono kākou i kēia mau pae ulu ma ka papa ma lalo.

He aha nā kumu no ka ulu lohi o ke keiki?

Inā lohi ka ulu ʻana o ke keiki ma mua o ka maʻamau, aia kekahi mau kumu no kēia. E nānā kākou i kekahi o lākou.

Maʻi endocrine

I ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi, nui nā mea i loko o ko kākou kino, e like me ka ulu ʻana a me ka hana ʻana, i kāohi ʻia e nā hormones. Inā he pilikia i loko o ka ʻōnaehana e hana ana i kēia mau hormones (ka ʻōnaehana endocrine), pili pololei ia i ka ulu ʻana o ke keiki.

• ʻO ka hormone thyroid: He hormone koʻikoʻi no ka ulu ʻana o ke keiki. ʻO ka nele o kēia hormone hiki ke alakaʻi i ka ulu ʻana o ke keiki.
• ʻO ka hormone ulu: Hoʻopuka ʻia kēia hormone e ka pituitary gland i loko o ka lolo. Inā ʻaʻole lawa ka hana ʻana o kēia hormone, e emi ana ke kiʻekiʻe o ke keiki.

Ka lohi o ka ulu ʻana o ke kumukānāwai

ʻAʻole kēia he maʻi maoli. He maʻamau ka ulu ʻana o kēia mau keiki, akā he pōkole iki lākou ma mua o nā poʻe ʻē aʻe i ko lākou mau makahiki. ʻO ke ʻano kēia, lohi iki ka ulu ʻana o ko lākou mau iwi. E like me nā "late bloomers". I ka hala ʻana o ka manawa, hiki lākou i ke kiʻekiʻe maʻamau.

Ka palena o ka ulu ʻana o loko o ka ʻōpū

ʻOiai i loko o ka ʻōpū o ka makuahine, hiki i ka pēpē ke ʻike i ke kāohi ʻana o ka ulu ʻana i loko o ka ʻōpū ma muli o nā kumu e like me ka nele o ka meaʻai a i ʻole ka oxygen. He kumu nui kēia no ka lohi ʻana o ka ulu ʻana o ke keiki.

Nā maʻi hoʻoilina

Hiki i kekahi mau kūlana genetic ke hoʻopilikia i ka ulu ʻana o ke keiki.

• ʻO Turner Syndrome: He kūlana e pili wale ana i nā kaikamahine. Ke nalowale nei lākou i kekahi hapa a i ʻole kekahi o kā lākou mau chromosome X, e hana ana i nā pilikia e like me ka lohi o ka ulu ʻana.
• ʻO Down Syndrome: He kūlana i hoʻokumu ʻia e ke alo o kahi helu chromosome keu 21. Loaʻa i kēia mau keiki ka ulu lohi ma mua o ka awelika.
• ʻAchondroplasia: He maʻi iwi hoʻoilina maʻamau kēia. ʻO kēia ke kumu o ka pōkole o nā lima a me nā wāwae o ke keiki e like me ko lākou kino, a ʻoi aku paha ka nui o ko lākou poʻo ma mua o ka maʻamau.

ʻŌpio mua

Ma kēia kūlana, hiki ke keiki i ka wā ʻōpio ma mua o ka mea i manaʻo ʻia. I ka wā mua, ulu wikiwiki ko lākou ulu ʻana a me he mea lā ua ʻoi aku ko lākou kiʻekiʻe ma mua o nā keiki ʻē aʻe, akā ua pau koke ko lākou ulu ʻana. I ka hopena, ʻoi aku paha ko lākou pōkole ma mua o ke kiʻekiʻe maʻamau o ke kanaka makua.

Nā kumu hoʻohuli ʻē aʻe

Ma waho aʻe o kēia, hiki i kekahi mau kumu ʻē aʻe ke hoʻopilikia i ka ulu ʻana o ke keiki.

• Ke kaumaha nui o ka noʻonoʻo
• Nā hemahema meaʻai
• Nā maʻi puʻupaʻa mau loa, ka puʻuwai, a i ʻole ka māmā
• Ka hoʻohana lōʻihi ʻana i kekahi mau lāʻau lapaʻau

I kekahi manawa aia nā hihia kahi i hiki ʻole ai ke loaʻa ke kumu kikoʻī no nā pilikia ulu. I ka lāʻau lapaʻau, kapa mākou i kēia he 'idiopathic'.

Pehea ʻoe e ʻike ai inā he pilikia ulu kou? He aha nā hōʻailona?

ʻIke ʻia kekahi mau hōʻailona i ka wā hānau, aʻo kekahi e ʻike ʻia i ka wā e ulu ai ke keiki. ʻOi aku ka ʻike ʻia o kēia mau hōʻailona ma hope o 5 mau makahiki.

Hiki ke ʻike ʻia nā hōʻailona e like me kēia me nā pilikia ulu:

• Ka lohi o ka hoʻomohala ʻana o nā mākau kino: ʻOi aku ka lohi o ka noho ʻana, ke kū ʻana, a me ka hele ʻana ma mua o nā keiki o ka makahiki like.
• Ka lohi o ka hoʻomohala ʻana o nā mākau pili kanaka a me ka naʻau: Ka lohi o ka launa pū ʻana me nā poʻe ʻē aʻe a me ke kamaʻilio ʻana.
• Nā pilikia o ka ʻōnaehana hoʻoheheʻe: Inā lohi ka ulu ʻana ma muli o ka komo pono ʻole ʻana o ka meaʻai i loko o ke kino, hiki ke ʻike ʻia nā hōʻailona e like me ka maʻi pākī, ka paʻa ʻana o ka ʻōpū, ka luaʻi ʻana, a me ka nausea.

He aha nā lāʻau lapaʻau no kēia a no ke aha e pono ai iaʻu e ʻike i ke kauka?

Inā he mau hopohopo kāu e pili ana i ka ulu ʻana o kāu keiki, ʻo ka mea maikaʻi loa e hana ai, ʻo ia ke kamaʻilio me kāu kauka e pili ana i ia mea . I kēlā me kēia manawa āu e lawe ai i kāu keiki i ke keʻena lapaʻau, e ana ke kauka i ko lākou kiʻekiʻe a me ke kaumaha a e kaha iā lākou ma kahi pakuhi ulu. E hāʻawi kēia iā ʻoe i kahi manaʻo maikaʻi o ke ʻano ulu ʻana o kāu keiki.

Inā kānalua ʻia kahi pilikia, hiki i ke kauka ke kauoha i nā hoʻokolohua e like me kēia e ʻike ai i ke kumu:

• Nā hoʻāʻo koko: E nānā i nā pae hormone, ke kūlana meaʻai, a me nā kūlana olakino ʻē aʻe.
• Nā kukuna X: Hiki ke lawe ʻia kahi kukuna X o ka lima a i ʻole ka pulima lima e nānā i ka makahiki o ka iwi a loaʻa kahi manaʻo o ka hiki ke ulu o ke keiki.
• Nā hoʻokolohua ʻē aʻe: Inā pono, hiki ke kuhikuhi ʻia ʻoe no nā hoʻokolohua kūikawā, e like me ka hoʻāʻo ʻana i ka gland pituitary.

Eia kekahi mau koho lapaʻau e ʻōlelo aku ai kāu kauka:

• Nā inikini hormone ulu: He kōkua nui kēia lāʻau lapaʻau no nā keiki me nā maʻi e like me ka hemahema o ka hormone ulu a i ʻole ka maʻi Turner. ʻOiai he lāʻau lapaʻau palekana a maikaʻi hoʻi kēia, hiki ke pipiʻi iki.
• Lapaʻau hormone thyroid: Inā loaʻa i ke keiki ka hemahema o ka hormone thyroid ('Hypothyroidism'), hiki i ka hāʻawi ʻana i kēlā hormone ma ke ʻano pila ke hoʻihoʻi i ka ulu ʻana.
