   There are numbers of reasons why a person is not tall, and most of them do not
   have any effective treatment.
   Probably the commonest cause is genetic, that is to say that one or
   both your parents are below average height, or that short stature runs
   in your family. There is really nothing that can be done about this.
   The other cause that most people know about is a deficiency of growth
   hormone, which is produced by the pituitary gland situated at the base
   of the brain. If a deficiency of this hormone is discovered early
   enough in life, it is sometimes possible to give treatment with
   injections of growth hormone to increase height. However, by the time
   you get to 17 years of age, your bones may not respond to the effect
   of the hormone. The only way to find out if you have this condition is
   to discuss it with your doctor. Blood tests an X-rays to see how your
   bones are growing can usually make the diagnosis, but for treatment
   you would need referral to a specialist. These investigations should
   also show if there is any other cause for your short stature.
   But you should not think that it will definitely help you. Medical
   science can not make you the way you want to be – and it is true not
   only for height – so it’s better to accept yourself as you are. Tall
   people are not necessary happier than short people – look at the
   tallest man in Ukraine, who was stripped of his title, lives alone
   with his mother, and has constant legs pain!
   The exercises they advertise on-line may increase your height
   temporarily for 0,5 – 1 cm, it’s hardly noticeable and does not worth
   the trouble: your height varies during the day on its own.
   Very occasionally, surgeons will try an operation to lengthen the
   bones in the legs. This is very difficult, and takes many months or
   even years, and a series of operations. It is a dreadful operation,
   and I mentioned it only because you may have heard of it. Never
   consider mutilating yourself for a miserable increase in height, and
   be happy as you are.

   You can only grow to the height your genes say you will grow to. But at 16 you probably havent finished growing yet so be patient! (Btw my fiance is the same height as you and it has NOT put me off him lol)

   * ADVICE FOR HEIGHT__

   Good intake of calcium daily as found in various foodstuffs like tonned milk, banana, ragi, nachni, yogurt, my favourite nachos with cheese..
   a best way i cud advice is to have milk shakes(chocolate, coffee flavoure) 2-3 times a day as an replacement for tea, coffee is a good alternative…

   Good sleep aftr exercises helps ur bones to relax and expand.. Atlest 8hrs good sleep at night…
   Remember food without exercises or exercises without food wont help you much.
   Also there are genetics n familial relationships related to height.. i.e if either ur parents are short heighted or either ur brother , sister.. than there are little chances for increase in height…BUT keep a positive attitude follow the daily regimen of food n exercises.If you goin to gym regularly, i wud advice not to perform any weight lifting exercises… stritctly NO..

   Herbal Solutions:
   Being a medical student myself, the best advice i wud like to give is " sp height enhancer "

   These herbal growth remedies are found to be the permanent cure of short height. The herbal product can be bought from http://www.growtallersupplements.com

   The herbal product have a certain procedure for treating the short height. The herbs correct the chemical as well as hormonal imbalances which is the actual cause of the short height. These imbalances lead to the persistent short height and posture. The best thing about super-growth is that it is effective even after puberty.

   You should be able to clear a few inches over your parents height, and maybe even more, because of the increase in knowledge about nutrition. I grew like a weed between 15 and 20.

   You have plenty of years left, but you have to make an effort to do the right things to grow during your teen years. The two keys to teenage growth are nutrition and sleep.

   Nutrition: You want to shovel down as much vegetables (especially green vegetables) as you can, and drink as much milk (preferably skim) as you can possibly stomach. Broccoli is now your best friend. Make sure to take a daily multivitamin with meals.

   Avoid smoking, drinking and caffeine (as well as drugs), which interfere with your absorption of the nutrients your body needs in these critical years.

   Sleep: You only grow in your sleep. Teens who sleep less grow less. That’s a proven fact. There is a lot of truth to the stereotype of the great big overgrown teen who sleeps all day. That’s why he’s so big. Cut out caffeine entirely and get at least eight hours of sleep a night, but if you can get ten, DO IT!

   You still have your prime growing years ahead of you. I have a nephew that is eight inches taller than his dad, my brother, and all that growth came between 18 and 22 years.

   Good luck, and where did mom put those cans of green beans?
