Is the missing sense of smell always a symptom of this?

Did this affect your height growth as well? I've never heard of this, but I have a younger brother who has been seeing doctors, including an endocrinologist. They haven't pinpointed anything, they just say that "his body thinks he's only 13, but he should start growing soon." He's still around 5' tall, although most men in my family are over 6'. He's 18. How were you diagnosed? Is it a blood test? Would you ever eventually have gone through it, with the condition just making it very delayed, or is it permanent without hormone therapy?
