It is VERY important to use the correct terms! In case you missed it the correct terms to use are "person with dwarfism" and "little person". NEVER the m-word! It is considered derogatory within the dwarfism community. #Dwarfism #LittlePerson #DwarfismAwareness
I'll never turn away from telling people about dwarfism. If you're curious, always ask questions. Happy Dwarfism Awareness Month. 💚 #dwarfism #dwarfismawareness #dwarfismawarenessmonth #littleperson #littlepeople

Can I ride rollercoasters? The answer is I don’t ride rollercoasters because a) I don’t reach the height requirements & b) I’m scared of heights. #rollercoasters #wendywilliams #dwarfism #dwarfismawareness #dwarfismawarenessmonth #littleperson #littlepeople
Did you know I'm 23 years old? Guess how tall I am? I'm 3 feet 10 inches tall! Happy Dwarfism Awareness Month 💚
I could’ve said, “one day I’ll be 4 feet tall”. 📏 I’m actually 3 feet 10 inches tall. Sometimes I joke and say that if I were ever to become 4 feet tall I would throw myself a party. I’m 23 now and I’m pretty sure I’ve stopped growing, so 3’10 it is then! This is the height I was meant to be and I love it! #dwarfism #dwarfismawareness #dwarfismawarenessmonth #littleperson #littlepeople

Pituitary Dwarfism - Free download as Powerpoint Presentation (.ppt), PDF File (.pdf), Text File (.txt) or view presentation slides online. Pituitary dwarfism is caused by hormonal problems that result in decreased bodily growth. Common causes include genetics, trauma, surgery, radiation, tumors, or leukemia. Symptoms include an immature face, chubby body build, headaches, vomiting, and double vision. Diagnosis involves growth charts, physical exams, blood tests to check growth hormone levels, stimulation tests, and imaging like MRIs and x-rays to evaluate bone age and the pituitary gland. Treatment consists of growth hormone replacement therapy and emotional support.
