Dr. Rania Mousa General Medicine
The average boy age 7 Year Optimal Height is 122 Cms Range (108 - 135 cm) Optimal Weight 23 kg Range (17 - 35 Kg)
So their height is still in the average compared to boys at their age and nothing to worry .
Concerning the hormons given it is only given in certain circumstances where ther is a problem in hormons ,or if the height is short due to lack or insufficient hormone in the body .So it is not given for everyone wishing to be taller .
