Head circumference growth

Question

Asked for Female, 44 Years

I have two questions: Is it possible that a person has acquired microcephaly (measurement well below normal around 14 months) for some period of time and after some time the head returns to normal? In children? Would this be considered microcephaly? Or is there another term for this?
