i’m in year nine and quite short! my dad’s quite tall and my mum’s in between. i want to stretch after dinner for a while…and i did last night, and my leg muscles are quite sore. shall i still exercise tonight after dinner? how often should i exercise throughout the week??

I am 15. I am 5ft 6 and a half. My shoe size used to be 8 but now i was measured as a 9 and a half so my feet grew!
I haven’t grown since last year, maybe half an inch.
But because my feet are still growing bigger does it mean that i still will grow taller??
oh and my mum is 5ft7 my dad is 5ft9 and my brother is 6ft and he is 17.
Does it mean because my feet have grown bigger that my growth plates haven’t closed yet??

Hi, I am a fourteen year old girl who is 5 feet 2 and a half inches. I grew half an inch this year. Is it possible that I can grow 2-4 more inches in high school? My mom is 5 ft. three inches and my dad is 6 ft. one inch. I have a lot of my dad’s characteristics, including having one leg shorter than the other. I pretty much have the same build as him, long, lean legs. Because I have so much in common with him, do you think I could grow taller? Do you have any tips on how to grow taller naturally? Thank you!

Hey guys, i am currently 15 years old, and i am only 5’4. To be honest, i have not noticed any significant growth in height at all but maybe i just missed it, and already had a growth spurt as my parents are also quite short. My mom is 5’2, dad is 5’6.(My sister who is 17, is taller than both my parents, as she is 5’7.(Which is even more weird) Also, my dad’s side is tall, as all his brothers are 5’10 – 6’2, and my mom’s side was around 5’6′ 58. So i guess, my real question is am i done my growth in height and did i already have my growth spurt, but i just did not realize it? Also, why is it that my parents brothers/sisters were all much taller than them, yet they turned out short?

I had pubic hair since i was 13, but my armpit hair came when in my late 14′s. My voice changed around 13, and it seems to have steadied to a lower voice now(15 yrs age). My hands and feet are big for my size, as i wear size 10 shoes, and my hands, i’ve noticed got longer during this summer.

I’m 16 years old and i’m a girl. I;m 5 ft 1, my dad’s around 165cm and my mum’s around 163. Relatives on my dad sides are short but tall in my mum;s side as in 185 which is the tallest. I was wondering whether can i still grow taller because i havent been exercising for around 1yr and i have seem to stop growing from there. What if i continue to exercise now? will i till grow taller? if yes, by how many inch? plus i dont drink milk.

I want to reach my maximum height. I’m a girl 14 and 5ft8 and my mum is 5ft6-7 and my dad is 5ft10-11. I started when I was 11 nearly 12 and i’m also wandering have I stopped growing?

I just turned 18 years old not too long ago and I’m 5’6. I’m about 135 and in good athletic shape but I’m just really self-conscience about my height. It’s weird because my dad is 6’3 and most men on my dads side of the family are 5’10 or taller. But my mom is 5’2 which is probably where I got my height from. Men on her side are mixed, some are 6’0 but some are short like me.

I really just want another 3 inches and that’s all, just to be 5’9 I’d be satisfied. My orthodics for my flat fleet already give me another inch when wearing shoes but I want to be naturally taller. One of my uncles (on moms side) didn’t stop growing until he was about 26 and grew from 5’8 to 6’0.
I just want to know the likelihood of me growing anymore, and when. and if there are any exercises or pills or something I can take to help.

Thanks

I’m 5’8 and 17 years old, I have a size 11 shoe and my legs and arms are DRASTICALLY longer than my torso, I also am incapable of growing facial hair yet, my dad is 6’0 tall and my cousin who I take after is 6’2 and did not grow until he was my age, is it possible I will grow taller?
I also have a 6’0 arm span

I am 17 and 5"7 (Please don’t say that’s a fine height because it isn’t). When I go to the store, I get treated like a child and sometimes people think I’m like a freshman in high school and it really kind of hurts my feelings but I know they don’t know any better.

When me and my dad go places together, I get a BIG taste of the short man vs tall man lifestyle.

My dad is 6"1 and women treat him with respect and sometimes they giggle around him because he is cute and is good at social skills. I am cute to, but the HEIGHT is the big difference. I can’t really explain how women act toward short guys but it’s kind of cold and they DO in fact treat tall guys with more respect.

So I am NOT going to live this short man’s lifestyle for the rest of my life because it’s miserable to me and it makes me depressed when I go out in public to events and such.

Because in our shallow world, height really DOES matter to the majority of the population even though there are those sweethearts that will accept you for who you are and couldn’t care less.

But I’m shallow to, when I see guys like 5"4 I think I am automatically better then them because I am taller. I fight against this thought and get to know the person and they actually turn out to be fairly descent.

But there is a part of me that ALWAYS feels like I am a bit better then them because that is our nature as humans. Which is why I’m really never nervous around guys shorter than me.

Also, I know some of you will say "Puberty isn’t finished for you yet" but it kind of is. I have broad shoulders, pubic hair that extends across my thighs and up to my belly button, a cracked voice, and an adult looking bone structure.

So are height increasing shoes really not bad for a person like me?

Im 13 and 5’3, going in to 9th grade. My dad is like 5’5 and my mom is 5’1.. ive been growing in the past year, while drinkingmilk and having alot of protein. my grandpa is like 6’1, but my grandma is like 4’11 or 5’0. the rest of my family are all average height..i want to be at least 5’9 one day. could this happen naturally?

Okay, I’m currently just turned 16 and I’m a fluent weightlifter. I’m 5’4 I have been lifting weights since I was 14. My dad’s 5’10, mom is 5’4, little brother that 12 5’0, and my oldest brother is 6’1. So is there anyway that I can my myself taller and don’t give me that genetic crap because every male on my mother side of the family is over 6 feet and the men on my dad side are not short but only my brother and one of my uncles is over 6 feet, the other is 5’7, but my grandpa was over 6 feet and my dad was 5’10 since he was 13, he stunt his growth because of an illness, so should stop lifting weights, but I’m at 215 on my bench and really not considering that, so is there anyway you guys can help me out a little.

I am going to be 17 in 2 months and i am 148cm only! I know i am VERY SHORT! I am an asian and my mom is 5’1 and my dad is like 5’6-5’7. So how much tall can i grow? Can exercise help me at this stage? Or can i get some pills that can work?? I want to be atleast 5’2 please help me? And can i reach that goal?

So I’m turning 15 in about 3 months, so right now its summer and I’m 14. In seventh grade I was 4’10, and I just finished 9th grade at 5’6. But, I’m still really short. My mom is 5 feet and my dad is 6 feet, and I’m 100% Chinese, making me a lil’ short. But, I would like to get much taller. Is there a way to grow like 4 inches naturally? Or am I still due for another growth spurt soon. What foods should I eat/drink? I drink milk and Orange juice with Calcium and Vitamin D. Help I don’t wanna be short forever!
Yeah, I should mention, I’m a dude.

I’m 14 now but 15 in september. I am around 5 foot 3 which is considered quite tall in my family,but that’s because i’m from an east asian family (though my twin brother is tall and my dad).
Anyway, I used to be definitely above average in height in primary school and average in year 7, but now alot of people who were shorter than me are taller than me and my twin brother cameron was always shorter than me and since high school he shot up. Though, i guess he’s a guy and that happens but same with shorter girls who have shot up above me too.
I have been this height for a while now (I have a height chart on my wall), around half a year ago, i was growing veryy slowly like 2 cm every 2 or 3 months but now i’ve seemed to stay around this height pretty much since. I don’t think i’ve had a growth spurt or will have one or is it that i’m just growing VERYY slowly?
Also, I had my period before alot of my friends and developed before too, but my breasts are only a size 34A which is really small compared to ALOT of girls my age and some even in the year below. I’ve stayed this size for about a year or less as well.
I’m 41kg and I know this is quite light, but trust me, I eat alot. I think it’s because I have a high metabolism or i’m quite sporty. And I get around 8 or 7 hours sleep, but I do eat quite a healthy diet.

Is it possible i’m not growing to grow much taller than this? I am taller by a few cm than my mum, she’s about 5 foot 3 and my dad’s around 5 foot 10, my twin brother is 5 foot 7 and my other brother (17) is around 5 foot 6 or 7.

Is there any thing I could do to help my growing increase faster naturally? Or any other tips? Is there a way to check that you are still growing (Apart from height and breast size obviously, since these don’t seem to help-this is a bit stupid this question ha ha)
I know that girls don’t stop growing till around 18 but could it be different because i’m asian and to do with my parents genes?

P.S I heard junk food is supposed to stunt growth but I guess I eat quite balanced. Though, I like to eat sweets like most teens but I don’t eat them too regularly. And sorry and thanks for taking the time to read this 5 year long question. Aha

i am 16, i am 5ft 9.7 inches, my dad is 5 10 and my mom is 5 6, i grew about 1 inch in the past year!
all my uncles are over 6ft
i want to grow about 3 inches more
what exercises would help for posture or to stretch your bones
thanku

What hormone can i increase to get me to be around 5 feet 6 inches
i am currently 5 feet 2 inches and had my period for about a year but my bone age is 2 years younger
my mom is 5 feet 4 inches and my dad is 6 feet
im very athletic and very flexible (im a cheerleader)
im 17 and 95 pounds

Im 13 and 5’3, going in to 9th grade. My dad is like 5’5 and my mom is 5’1.. ive been growing in the past year, while drinkingmilk and having alot of protein. my grandpa is like 6’1, but my grandma is like 4’11 or 5’0. the rest of my family are all average height..i want to be at least 5’9 one day. could this happen naturally?

I’m 15 Turing 16 and i’m about 5’6, my dad is 5’4 and my mom is 5’5 or so, and i was wondering is it possible for me to reach 5’10 at least? because my brother is 5’9, but when he was my age he wasn’t as strong or active as me. So can you give me tips to increase my growth? i already play basketball and i heard that increase height too. But please i need to know what other things i can do to increase height?

Now I don’t have children yet, only 18 but I was wondering if it would be possible. You see my dad is 5’11 and I am 5’6 but my stunted height is not genetic; ever since I was young I would constantly eat junk food and rarely have anything but rice and soup; candy, soda, you name it I probably had it. So would it be possibly for my children to be taller than me if they exercised, had a healthy diet, and stretched regularly?
Thanks in advance to those that help me out.

Also, what are the chances of a 5"7 1/2 (barefoot) male growing 2more inches before 18 when he is 16 1/2. Dad-5"10 Mom-5"3

I’m 12 and I’m 162cm. I think i’ve stopped growing because i’ve been this height since like the beginning of the year/end of last year. My parents aren’t very tall, my mom is 158cm and my dad is 170cm. My sister is 15 and is the same height as me and has been this height for quite some time. I wanted to know if there is anyway i can grow taller naturally, like stretches, exercises, massages on feet, or anything!!! I really want to grow taller, like 170cm. My mom saw this guy on tv that slept with his arms up and sed that that helped him grow taller, is this true??

I am 14 male about to turn 15 and i am 5-11 145 lbs. I want to grow at least 6 feet and above. I exercise a lot! I play basketball, running, and stretch a lot! I drink milk about 2 times a day. I eat healthy. My dad is 5-10 and my mom is 5-4. I really want to grow taller. I want to be at least 6 when i am 15. How can i get taller? What should i expect to my height to be? Please answer my question! Best answer receives points!

I think I’m done growing naturally

Is there any pills that’ll give me another growth spurt of 3+ inches

Hello All!

I’ll get straight to the point.
Right, well I’m 15, 16 in 3 months – I’m only 5’5. I’ve had 2 growth spurts, and have decent amount of facial hair – My mum’s about 5′ my dad about 5’4.

I know I’m approaching the end of puberty, but I really want to grow taller.

So I’ve been doing alot of research, and apparently taking real HGH through injections, will mess up the amount of hormone your body will naturally make.

So I’ve been looking at natural HGH stimulators, promting your body to making more HGH.

I found a product on Amazon which is affordable, and judging by the customers reviews it works. Here it is: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Potentiator-supplement-Comprehensive-Lytham-Body/dp/B002NKP9ZQ/ref=cm_cr_pr_pb_t

My question is, if I take this product will I actually grow taller?

Could anyone let me know any side effects, but as far as I can see if my body maked HGH naturally its fine?

I don’t want to leave growing tall to late, as obviously my growth plates won’t remain open forever.

Any replies would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Drew Barrymore: Thanks for the reply. I know that height doesn’t matter that much and the rest of it, but I want to get taller.

These aren’t actual hormones, they just stimulate your priutary gland to make more growth hormone.
