Well, to start off with, I’m a 17 year old girl. (I was born on March of 1993)
And my current height is 160cm.
These days I’m so constantly worried whether I will grow taller or not because I am definitely not satisfied with my height.
I didn’t used to be so worried about heights before; because when I was 13, I had my bone age tested at the hospital and the system predicted my height to be 169cm in the future.
But while going through adolescence, I had several problems concerning my family and financial difficulties.
And those things were too heavy on me, I got so stressed out and gained heaps of weight during the ages 14~17 and I still am rather overweight. And I think these fat have pulled me back from growing up to 169 cm like the system had predicted.
What I am most curious is ;
1. Will I be able to grow more? especially if I start dieting from now?
2. And I want to reach at least 165. Will that be possible?
3. Is there ANY chance of me growing up to 169?
4. What are there that I can do to quickly grow before I stop growing totally.
Im so self conscious about the height issue, I even try to measure myself walking on the streets..Please Answer me ! Thanks for reading.
I just have to note ; It has been proven in my case that my genetics show I can grow upto 169 according to the computer systemized test I took at a hospital ! so please try not to say anything about the ‘genetics’.
ok i want to mantain my weight as i grow taller so i will look thinner naturally . right now i am 12 and had a bone age test done and my doctor said I will probably grow 4 more inches .
right now i grew 2 inches went from 5’4" to 5’6" and i noticed i don’t look thinner , so if i continue to maintain my weight of 113lbs as I grow 4inches more, will i notice a difference in how thin i look or not?
ok im a 15 year old male, and i am 5’7-5’8, about 153-155 lbs, with 1 brother who is 17 and 5’10……my dad is 5’5 and my mom is 5’2…….on my moms side, all my uncles are between 5’6-5’10, and on my dads side, their around 5’7-5’10……my tallest cousin is around 6’1 and he is on my dads side…..i got a bone age test saying im still growing for a while and the test says my bones think im 15 and they are growing like a regular 15 year old male would…….i drink ALOT of milk, basically a gallon in about 2-3 days and i take calcium pills and centrum performance pills (multivitamin/multimineral supplements)…….i have a good diet, eat alot of protein and i dont eat too much sweets, alot of healthy foods….i play volleyball alot and i sometimes play basketball…..i will start going to the gym soon, basically every other day……so i think i have given enough information to predict how tall i will grow….
Please answer quickly
Thanks so much =)
i forgot to add that my both my grandfathers are about 5’7-5’9 and both grandmas are around 5’1-5’2
Im 14. Yes everybody still thinks i got plenty of room to grow but i don’t my bone age is at 17 and i’m pretty sure that menas my plates will fuse soon.
Are there any side effects? My growth plates are ALMOST closed but not closed yet, so they would still work right? What are some trusted places online i can get. How much do you think it can help me gain? Im 5"4 right now and 14 and a male.
Yes my age is young but my bone age is not young so im more of a 17 year old than a 14.
My bone age is at 17. Are my plates already fused so human growth hormone wouldn’t help me anymore? I am very short… so short it brings my confidence and everything down.
i’m 14, 5"4, and a male.
