So my cousin wants me to help her about her height since she doesn’t have a Yahoo account yet.
Uhm, she’s turning 12 on October and only about 55 or 54/12 inches so that’s like 4’7 (about 139-140cm). She’s one of the shortest people in her class, and wants to change that.
Is there any naturally way(s) that can grow taller? And when does your growth spurt starts (She hasn’t started her period yet)? She knows it’s all about genetics, etc.
Oops, I meant to put 54 1/2. (:
*that she can grow taller
lol. sorry about that.

I’m 18 and only 4’8, but have always liked my height ^_^. Lately though I’ve been thinking I should try to get taller if I even can or just look taller so people don’t mistake me for an 11 year old all the time. Plus I guess people have said I have somewhat of a ‘baby face’ and I do have a young sounding voice. It’s nice though because when I get older I’ll get mistaken for younger still hopefully X3. But being 18 and being mistaken for an 11 year old is not fun… I guess I was born without a pituitary gland and my doctor says 5’ is as tall as I could ever hope of being, so I thought maybe I should TRY to grow that tall somehow… (NATURALLY…I have chemophobia and the growth hormones didn’t work on me anyways.) I’ve heard stretches and yoga could help and want to try but…I just REALLY like my height and don’t like the prospective of me being 5’ tall at all… but there’s a guy I like and he’s 23 and about 5’8-ish and I really don’t want to look like an 11 year old next to him lol. (He looks like he’s 18 at least though lol) But I just don’t want to get taller (and I don’t know if I even can) and just really love my height just the way it is <3. *sigh* but being mistaken for 11 gets SO old… Maybe…is there any way I could look more my age without looking or getting any taller? And I’m just curious what others think on this matter: should I try to get/look taller?
Just to clear this up, I was not born with dwarfism and am not…err…‘stubby’ or anything…I just look like an average 11-12 year old…only I am 18 lol.

I am 19 and I am 5’5" tall, my dad is 6’0 and my mom is 5’5", ain’t I supposed to grow taller? Are there any supplements, pills or treatments or things like that that could help me grow taller? Thanks for the help.

By the way, my brother is 15 and he is 5’8". I played soccer since I was 6 and he didn’t, I lifted weights since I was 14 (yeah I have a badass body and good looks, I’m just too short). Did the weight lifting and the soccer affect my growth? If I keep doing it will that decrease my chances of growing?
And yeah, my parents measurements are right. That’s why I am pissed lol I should be at least 5’8"
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
Okay, now, to a large majority of you at least, this question is gonna sound pretty lame. Lol. But, I’ve heard quite a bit on how to support the growth of breasts lately. I’m sort of skinny, only 98 lbs or so, around 5’1ish I would assume though I look a little bit taller than that, and I’m about a 34 – 36B as far as cupsizes go. They don’t look incredibly small, and I don’t mind all too much since I know they’ll grow some more soon enough – at least i hope: I turned 14 last month. I don’t need any lectures either … I know that you don’t necessarily need a nice rack to be beautiful, and I already know that I have natural beauty, as we all do in different ways. I’m not hidious, I’m actually quite pretty, so yeah … we can get off of that subject. Lol. I’m not a big eater, and I’ve always been sort of picky with that. But, I was just wondering if there were anyways in which I could naturally speed up the growth. I always sort of just though ‘aw, hey, they’ll grow more eventually’ and my doctor even said so too, but I often feel like my eating habits might really do me in with growth … if you get what I mean. (I don’t look anorexic at awl, I actually look quite average, just lacking fully developed curves and all, obviously. Lol.) Any suggestions? By that I mean eating habits or anything else really which would make legit. sense. Don’t go on about the ‘get fat and then shed the pounds.’ News flash: It doesn’t work. Lol. You gain sloppy weight from that, not thickening types. Besides, I think it’s nearly impossible for me since I sort of have this acid reflux problem where I feel full when I’m actually not. I can get over that full feeling tho, if it matters greatly. Thanks. :]
Okay this is embarrassing & a little personal lol buttt..
I’m a girl in the 8th grade, with a height of only 5’1 or just 5 feet. Yeah, short I know haha. But I don’t think I’ve had a growth spurt yet. I got my period like a year ago. And I weigh about 105 lbs.
Ever since the near end of the summer, I noticed that I’ve been getting some stretch marks on my hips and butt. I’m not fat. At all. In fact, I’m pretty skinny. &It’s really weird though. Like, I heard it was normal, but I don’t really know anyone with stretch marks unless they’re fat, or lost a lot of weight. I didn’t really gain OR lose much weight or grow taller.. So I have nooo idea what’s going on haha. And now the stretch marks are kinda whiteish.. And I have a naturally reallly tan skin tone. They make me feel soooo self conscious ! Especially when swimming or changing in the locker room! Could you please help&tell me what’s going on and how I can get rid of them?! Thanks(:
I’m a 19 year old female and I want to grow taller but it seems my height growth has been stagnant since the 6th grade. I am 5’2". I would like to grow at least 2 more inches. In my fantasy I would like to be 5’6"-5’10" lol but only in my dreams I guess would this be possible. Anyways I wanna know do people really have an age when they just stop growing? If so whats the age for girls? I have all sorts of heights in my family, but regardless of them, do I still have a chance if i try methods of growing taller? Like what should I eat, drink, do? I know calcium so milk blah blah…what else though?
Okay.. you would SOO get where im comming from if you were me. I bet your thinking "ew thats gross" or " Why would you want to do that?" LOL.Im in 7th grade. Well im *12* .. ya and im 5"6
. I absolutley HATE it. Im taller than just about EVERYONE! All the cute boy. Im taller. All the ugly boy: Im taller.IT SUCKS! SERIOUSLY! IM TALLER THAN MY OWN MOM!!! How many 12 year old are taller than thier MOM! I mean seriously. Well my mom is 5"3 and like i said im 5"6. My dad is 5"11.
.
So i guess my real question is: Is there any way i can stunt my growth ?
And
If not how long will i have to wait before i stop growing naturally?
How much does a person grow a year?
I have already had my period if that has anything to do with it. PLEEEASE answer
Thanks:)

I’m only 5"6, I’m a guy, and I wanna grow taller.lol do stretching exercises could help me grow taller? My parents are about the same height as me and I’m already 18. Could it be genetic? or am I just short because I used to workout everyday when I was 14….I heard we’re not supposed to work out till 18…?
Im a healthy 15 year old girl. Im tall, I have long hair, I have long legs, Im thin and a little muscular, but I cant get my boobs to grow for the life of me. Im constantly getting picked on for only being a 32B. Whats a way I can grow bigger (not by much, just a little. lol not asking for miracles) without spending money or going on some weird eating thing. Im in karate and as a warm up we have to do push ups and iv been told that that should help but I havent noticed anything different at all. Any tips for me?
Hello~
What happened to natural, healthy beauty? Why is almost everyone wearing tons of makeup to have to feel pretty? I’m 12 and just wear chapstick, lol, sometimes just burt’s bees color lip balm thing. I’ve never really liked girls who coated themselves with makeup. And thats what all the media advertises these days. So, its hard to find advice in finding healthy, natural looking beautiful advice. Could someone give me some advice about how to look naturally pretty? Thanks. Basically, any type of advice works, but I do have preference. For example, I have OK lips, but I want them to be or look fuller, is there any way tot do that? I have full but short eyelashes, is there any way I could have full AND long lashes? I have acne, and I am using AcneFree right now, I steam my face(?) once a week, do a mud mask, mosturize, basically the normal stuff. Any other advice, besides drink water, I’m already working on that. Could you give me a recipe of how to make a body scrub thats really good for my skin and make it glow. Should I use the scrub before I shave or after? If you don’t have a recipe, could you give a brand name and where I could buy it? Sorry if I’m asking so many question, don’t have an older girl sibling and my mom is absolutly clueless in this kind of stuff because she is like born like a run way model. Many people say my mom and I look exactly alike, but what else can they say? Because if they say we don’t, some people get offended. I want to grow to 5’5 but I am 5’0 right now. Any advice on how to grow taller? I am 12. Does milk make you grow taller?
Thank you all for taking the time to read and answer my question…s..
Love you all~
I’m 5’4" and my mom is 5’9"-5’10" and my dad is 5’7"-5’8". My sister is 1 year older than me and shes 6’0"! Wtf, why am I so short!! Im hoping this 1/2 inch will mean I’ll grow a lot. Lol what does it typcially mean when your feet grow 1/2 an inch? I heard your feet grow before your body grows, so its a sign. My foot size is now 10 1/2 so I have to get 11. My sisters feet are size 13. What am I doing wrong? Like should I sleep more? Exercise more? I dont exercise much.. does that have to do with it? Im 165 pounds.. a little overweight according to the BMI calculator. does that come to play? Wahh..help. Im 16.. im not too late to grow right? Last time I really grew was from 4’8" to 5’3" around the time I was 10. I would love to grow to be 5’8"… 4 inches to go.. I’ll even be happy with 5’7".. anything less is unbearable for me. Especially since Im a volleyball player. Im OH, and Im not getting far if I’m the shortest hitter.. I wonder who the coaches esp for college teams, would be looking for. I wonder who would have an easier time jumping high and everything.. the taller peeps. I want to lose weight anyways. And people are like "when your shorter theres more guys to choose from!" uMMMM no! cause i dont wanna be with a short guy! I wanna be tall so I can be with a taller guy and have tall kids and etc. help!! what type of vitamins help you in general for teens and help you to grow taller too? and are like.. okay and wont give me cancer. k thanks!
Im currently 16 years old and today at the hospital, i was told that i need leg lengthening surgery on one of my legs because it is between 2 and 3 centimeters shorter than the other.
There are two factors which are really putting me off of the surgery, the first being the amount of recovery time. I play a lot of sport and was told i would be out of action for an average of six months.
The thing i really want to know, is how pain full it is, when the left is actually being lengthened, i have heard that a dial on the brace is turned possibly each day, to stretch the leg by a millimeter maybe?
I realldon’tnt do very well with pain, small things really feel like agony to me! Perhaps you can say im a wimp lol but its true!
I would just like someone to be honest and tell me how pain full actually turning of the dial is each time
Thank you
I have two brothers and their both 5.8-5-9 , my dads tall but my mum isnt.. and their both convinced i’ll be small in height when i turn 18! I’m 15 now, and my 14 year old brother is taller than me!

I’m 15, and only 4"11. Will I grow any taller? Any way to become taller without the silly shoes, and height increasing scams? Anything that works?
My mom is 5, and my dad is 5’6. But most of my other relatives are around 5’3 and higher.
And any estimate on how many inches I’m still going to gain?
And if it helps, I’m filipino.
Lol. I love heels. I mean like those kimi shoes, and shoe height increasers.
My mom is the shortest in her family. Most females in my mom’s family are 5"3 and some 5"7 there and the males are pretty average/tall 5"8+ and so. My 1st cousin is 6"4. My dad’s side is pretty average 5"6-5"9, but most of my female 1st cousins from his side is like 5 to 5"2.
I brisk walk everyday for an hour & do some lower ab workouts like pulling my legs (bended) to my chest then making them straight again, vertical.
I just heard that you could grow taller by exercising & stuff.
I’m 16 & 5’5. & i’m a girl.
