How long do Pocket People usually live?
Pocket man refers to a person whose height is less than 30% of the standard height of children of the same age, gender and race, or who is less than 120 cm in adulthood. He is also called a dwarf. Pocket man is a short stature disease, mainly due to insufficient secretion of pituitary growth hormone in the body, which can be inherited. The life span of pocket people is the same as that of normal people. Pocket people can live, work and study normally. As long as they pay attention to health, they can live a long life without worrying too much.

Short stature refers to the lack of growth hormone secretion in children, which leads to short height. Without growth hormone replacement therapy, the final height can only reach about 130 cm. Treatment suggestion: dwarfism mainly affects height, and some will also affect gonads to a certain extent, but it has no effect on treatment and other organs, so it has little effect on life expectancy.
