My life

The title of the blog pretty much sums it up. I have Turner's Syndrome. If you don't know what Turner's is, summed up in a few words it is (according to turnersyndrome.org)  "Turner syndrome (TS) is a chromosomal condition that describes girls and women with common features that are caused by complete or partial absence of the second sex chromosome". I have decided to make a blog to make a support and informational place for people with Turner's. I am just your average person a teenager who is living her everyday life. I was about 10 when I found out that I had Turner's. Since then I have come a long ways. I took growth hormone because at the time I found out, I was only about 4'9 now I am 5'2. It really has helped me. I am still short but pretty average. When I went on growth hormone 5'2 was my goal height. I was on growth hormone until I was about 14. I am now 15 so I have been off of it for a little over a year. I also have Hyperthyroidism. Which if you couldn't tell is a thyroid condition. I have to take pills for that. It is very common in people with Turner's. I have decided to make this blog so others and myself have a support place.
