So I’m a 16 yr old guy and I’m 6 foot 9. I don’t like being so tall, everywhere I go a lot of people stare at me and I think I’m the tallest guy in my entire school. My body looks fine and is in proportion. There is nothing wrong with my skull or anything like that. I don’t have pain anywhere, i’m not weak, and I can work out with no problem. I have low blood pressure and my kidneys are functioning very well. I weight 203 lbs and that is normal weight. So I don’t think I have gigantism. I’m currently playing basketball and working out, do you think that is what is causing it? I never take steroids. Genetics probably doesn’t have anything to do with it cuz my father is 5 foot 9, my mother is 5 foot 6, my sister is 5 foot 7, and my brother is 5 foot 8. Am I just about done growing or is there still more inches to come? Is there anything I can do to either make myself shorter or stop my growth if I’m still growing?? I want to do it naturally, not by medicine or drugs. And do you girls like tall guys?

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

well im still very young and i think im going to grow just a little bit taller later on the reason why i say this is because i take after my dads side and im taller than any of the girls in my family.. and i really mean taller … but i want to know . Recently ive changed my diet to lose a little weight and im doing pretty good.. but what i dont like is my big hips.. im skinny but have curves the curves come from my moms side . and i dont think the big hips look that flattering on me.. id rather just reduce them a bit… so i was wondering if i eat healthy exercise and stay focused would i be able to make my hips thinner ? or smaller

ok so im 16 yrs old and im 5’8 i weigh 210lbs i know im on the heavy side but i wanted to know if i would get any taller and is there a possibility that ill hit at least 6’0 my dad is 6’5 but my mom is a small 4’5. The other thing is nowadays with the girls ppl are so sex driven at such a young age and i know im not large enough for anything and theres been plenty of oppurtunities that ive had with girls that ive always wanted to get with but im too ashamed to go anywhere because im afraid of being embarassed because this is embarassing to pull out on a girl and actually expect her to do something with 3 inches in my opinion this is wrong its not even big enough to pleasure anyone and there was even one girl that i really truly liked her but we didnt go anywhere because i was ashamed of this. so id like to know of any ways to enlarge myself naturally w/out any pills or injections, etc. im already losing weight if thats a facor 4 times a week i do cardio for 45 minutes alternating between a gym and running at the park. I have also been watching what i eat. if i could reach 6 inches i would b

I wear 5.2 inch elevator shoes, and have been for a few months, but am getting really bored of the design. They look a bit like this http://www.amazon.com/CALDEN-K881801-Increasing-Elevator-Motorcycle/dp/B004U768PK/ref=sr_1_7?s=shoes&ie=UTF8&qid=1307313404&sr=1-7 .

Are there any elevator shoes out there that look a bit less….boot-like, bulky and boring? I’m a girl too, and have to order a size larger than my own because they only have 5 inch shoes for guys. Do they have any 5 inch elevator shoes for girls? Please help. I’m very short, a bit less than 4’9, and these help me with my confidence a lot. I just dont want to be limited to one pair and have people wonder why I always wear them.

So I’m a 15 yr old man and I’m 6 foot 8. I really don’t know what happened to me? I don’t like being so tall, everywhere I go a lot of people stare at me and I think I’m the tallest guy in my whole entire school. My body looks fine and is in proportion. There is nothing wrong with my skull figure or anything like that. I don’t have pain anywhere, i’m not weak, and I can work out with no problem. So I guess I’m just naturally like this. Genetics probably doesn’t have anything to do with it cuz my father is 5 foot 10, my mother is 5 foot 6, and my sister is 5 foot 9. Am I just about done growing or is there still more inches to come? Is there anything I can do to either make myself shorter or stop my growth if I’m still growing?? I want to do it naturally, not by medicine or drugs and stuff. And do you girls like tall people?

I know this sounds weird; most girls these days want to increase their breast size. However, I’m 19 with a 36DD… and constantly growing. I know that doesn’t sound too bad… but due to health problems, I stopped growing heightwise when I was 12. I’m not even five feet tall (and never will be) and my chest is HUGE!
Plastic surgery isn’t an option- for one thing, it’s a ridiculous amount of money, and I want to be able to breastfeed when ever I decide to have children. I have had constant self-esteem issues since I was 10 (that was before my health issues were diagnosed). My stomach stuck out funnily (intestinal problems) and my mother always told me to ‘suck it in.’ By the time I reached 13, I was only 60 pounds, and still, always told to ‘suck it in.’ (Before you go off on my mother, she had good intentions; later in life I’d eat a bowl of ice cream just to piss her off and now I regret it.) I still have a lot of health problems, but within the past six months I’ve started eating healthy and exercising. I had to go on steriods in Jan of 08, which is what pushed my cup size from a nice 32C to this whopping 36DD; I gained 60 pounds from it, resulting in 180something. I’m now at a steady 137, and feeling GREAT; however, my boobs haven’t shrunk at all… Yeah, yeah, ‘suck it up, you should be grateful to have naturally large boobs,’ but I hate it. I have a lot of back problems because of it, and I’m terrified of getting breast cancer.
PLEASE! Is there any way to shrink your boobs naturally? Maybe a certain type of food or cream? Like I said, I know it sounds ridiculous, but I’m sure my large-chested friends out there would agree; having your cup runneth over too much is no fun.
I would so gratefully appreciate it
And to jdizzle fo shizzle, I personally don’t think so. But my boyfriend does

I have been playing basketball since I was 6 years old. My parents made me play because I was tall and naturally was expected to, as were my brothers. I think I liked basketball as a kid. Then when I joined a traveling team in 7th grade I realized how horrible I was in comparison to most girls. I have never been an overly aggressive person and this continues to hinder my performance. In 8th grade though, I finally gained some confidence and began scoring a lot in the games and even started. In 9th grade I made the JV team and I worked really hard that year to better myself so I was satisfied with my performance even though I didn’t start. In 10th grade I started on the JV and was easily one of our best players. I scored more than I ever have and averaged 8 pts a game (which may not seem like a lot but compared to the rest of the team, was pretty solid).
Now. In 11th grade I made Varsity but only because I seniority and there were no other girls trying out. The coach and I have never been on fantastic terms-we are both very awkward with one another. During this past year I left for vacation and missed a tournament, twisted my ankle and missed a game, got sick and missed another game. Overall, I hardly ever played and as the season went on I began dreading basketball more and more. By the end of the season I averaged 10sec a game, was completely discouraged, had no motivation to play, and hated/hate basketball. I cried all the time. My mom grew very upset with me because it didn’t seem like I was even trying to play anymore. She threatened to make me quit and instead of arguing I begged her to do so… I wasn’t the only one-many of the girls on our team hated the coach and wished the season was over, but at least they were still good enough to play in the games and make a difference. I felt like breaking my leg and sitting out the whole season so at least I would have some dignity in my injury. In our finals, I prayed that we would lose so that I didn’t have to go to practice 3 extra days. We lost. I know-it was completely selfish.
Ugh. Every time I see my coach and get an email about an open gym now I get this sick feeling in my gut. I REALLY DON’T WANT TO PLAY. But I feel like next year I will be a senior and it’s my last chance. I feel like I would be a quitter if I dismembered. And I don’t want to be a couch potato which my mom fears if I quit (although I’m pretty active so I think I would just join another sport instead). Also, I think it looks good on college apps that I play two varsity sports and if I quit…well. I feel like basketball has always been a part that defined me-even my friends are like: why aren’t you playing? I thought you were really good?
I don’t know if I’m good anymore. I think I have the potential to be good, but I am so unconfident in my abilities and I have no desire whatsoever to try to boost them again. I have done so way too many times, and I am ready to give up altogether.
If it were up to me, I would focus all my time on the other sport I play-tennis which I think is so fun and relaxing, and then maybe join a fun sport like dance or karate or something next winter instead.
Thoughts?

What can I do? I still have a little bit of growing left (I just turned 14) I have the body for it besides the height, and I am willing to do whatever it takes to be successful. I know I can do it, but I just don’t know how yet. I have a natural feeling for the camera (I pose naturally great) but I am not tall enough What can I do to become a model anyways? What agencies hire to shorter girls?

Thanks in advance!

I am a short guy, and I hate my height (5’5). I hate it because it seems like when I ask girls out I always get rejected because of my short stature. I hate it and I wish I can grow taller but i am an adult. What can I do to become taller?

I’m fourteen and just about 5’2. As a girl, I went through puberty at 11. I really want to grow taller, as I’m one of the shortest girls in my class.. Tell me what is possible… My mom says I may not grow much taller. I want to make the best of it. Perhaps at least 5’2. What can I eat or drink? Are vitamin supplements helpful? If so, which ones?
Genetics: My parents are pretty short. My dad’s only 5’6 and my mom’s only 5’3

I’m the shortest girl out of all the other girls in my class. I’m just wondering if you know what I should eat and what exercises I should do to grow taller. Thanks for answering!

Yeah, well I have short parents. I think my mom is around 153 cm and my dad is around 170 cm (or maybe even shorter). I was hoping I’d be able to grow to around 165 cm. I just got into high school, so I’m currently in Grade 8. My sister who is over a year older than me is only about 155 cm. Is it possible for me to grow any taller? Would exercising help? I actually am pretty healthy. I eat healthy, take vitamins, do aerobics (On Wii, lol). Also, is it true that girls stop growing 1 1/2 years after they get their period?

I’ve also heard about growth pills that increase your height. Do they actually work? Or do they only work if you haven’t stopped growing?

It’s not that I’m insecure or anything. Just wondering if there’s a chance for me to grow. If there isn’t, then it’s fine with me. xD

sorry this is really long, but it’ll make you think, at least I hope so.

I’m just wondering what others think. For the past few years, around the time I started senior year of hs until now, my third year in college, I’ve drastically changed appearance wise. I decided to put on weight, wear less form-fitting clothes, not wear any makeup/products at all, etc. I used to be very different, I took care of my appearance, though I was not obsessed with showing myself off like other girls my age. I was naturally thin, very tall, and "attractive" in other people’s eyes. As I approached my teenage years all I heard was, "you’re growing so beautifully, you should be a model" …Every girl friend of mine would always comment on my weight, coveting my body, my unique clothing style. I was scouted by modeling agencies numerous times…and I especially hated the way men looked at me, like an object! I was not comfortable with this at all, I grew up in a religious household and attended a strict religious private school, so I was not used to any of this.

I started to believe that people were only trying to be my friend because of how I looked, not because of who I really am. Realizing this at 16–when all of my friends were still talking about boys and makeup–made me feel even more alienated. So I stopped taking care of myself. I no longer wanted people to look at me superficially. Luckily, around my senior yr of high school I started getting acne so it made me look even more unattractive. I stopped wearing short hair, grew it out really long and wild. I forced myself to gain as much weight as I could… all because I thought that the "uglier" I looked the more I could evaluate who wanted me for who I am and who did not. naturally, none of those friends were around anymore.

Even now when old friends see me, they’re surprised to see how much I have changed. I still have people telling me that I’m pretty, but I "could afford to lose a few pounds." I want to tell them that I would rather not! Do you think what I am doing/how I feel is justifiable? Perhaps unusual? I already know I’m not like other girls, but I staunchly believe that by being this way I will someday befriend humans who admire the beauty of the soul rather than the outer appearance…I simply do not wish to be a part of our image-obsessed society…
hahahaha good one, penguin dude. I feel fortunate to say that I’ve had a better upbringing than most people…and I’m certainly not wealthy

9 months ago he told me he liked me after he asked me if i did. We have text a lot and he would smile at me..and stuff.. He has a little bit of an ego ( ..a BIG one..), and he does like other girls. I think i am in love with him, we could talk about nothing for hours and neither one of us would end the conversation because we loved to talk to each other. At school we didn’t really talk that much, I am naturally shy and not much of an " put myself out there" kind of girl. He would send me " Good morning sunshine!!!!!!!!!!:)" texts and we have so much in common, We are both tall (in the 6ft range) but i am taller:). We go head to head in school ( smartness wise) and he gets upset when i beat him, and brags when he beats me. We started to grow apart and i sent him this text that basically says how i truely felt, and he goes i never knew you felt this way.. and we still text but not as much.. He started to like this one girl and she and her friend spread rumors about me and my friend calling him a "w" word.. he believed it and told us he didnt. ( We never did, and we dont hang around those haters) Now we are to far apart and he only text me if he needs something. He texted me last night, for the first time in 4 months but he needed something of course. He said him and this girl have kissed, but they are not going out and she has had a boyfriend the whole time..

I really need some help on this…I’m so confused…This is long, but it explains everything…
