Hi!

I’m 14 and 5’2, which is pretty short. I’m still growing, but not a lot since I have already gone through my growth spurt. I want to be a little taller, like 5’4 and was wondering if I could talk to a doctor about this? What kind of doctor could help me with this and prescribe a growth supplement?

My mom is totally up for this, so we went to talk to my regular doctor who didn’t really help me. I was wondering if there was a specific kind of doctor that could talk to me about this? Is it weird if I approach them with this topic?

Thanks!!!

im 5’2. started my period last december. my mom is 5’5 1/2 and my dad is 5’11. my older brother got to 6ft. im a volleyball player and i know im eventually going to grow taller, but is there any way to boost my growth naturally? (please no pills/spams)! im in 8th grade………thank you!
and i just grew another size in shoes resently. does this mean im about to hit a growth spurt? im an 81/2 size shoe. and for my hieght, i feel like i have boat feet

I just turned 20 years old, i’m 5 foot 5inch, have a size 11.5 shoe, grew an inch in the past 8 months, my puberty really started going when i was 16 i have a very large rib cage so i look stocky (i’m one of those people when they say are just big boned i am) I am direly afraid that i am not going to grow anymore just because of my age and rate at which Ive been growing, had a very small growth spurt around 15, and then hight has been slowly creeping up since then to my hight of 5′ 5”, my brother is about 5′ 8” 5′ 9” wheres a size 8.5 i believe somewhere around there and he is 24, but not sure how long he has been that tall, everyone in my family always expected me to be tall because of my feet, i’m scared that they are wrong, i mean i don’t want to be like 6′ 2” no anywhere from like 5′ 8” to 5′ 10” would be fantastic 5′ 8” being good 5′ 10” being amazing, should i be worried that this will never happen, i am very insecure about my hight, i really don’t want to stay this short
would drink milk but am a bit lactose intolerant

Right now I’m 17 and about 5’7. I’m taller than my mom and an inch or two shorter than my father. I asked them both if I could top 6ft but they told me "no" cause "I’m nearly at the end of my growth spurt". I REALLY want to be between 6’0 and 6’2. Is there a way that I can hit 6’0? Like a diet plan, excercise regimen or something? Yes, I’m doing it to be more attractive, but it’s also a personal thing. Help me out?

I am 14 years old I am 5′ 1”… I want to be taller. Is there anyway I can make my growth spurt happen sooner or increase my heat by a few inches???

had a bone scan and its the same as my age which is normal but can i grow 6-7 inches in 2-3 years i dont think i had a growth spurt yet and most guys get their biggest growth spurt around 16-18.I want to grow to be around 5’8-5’9…i want to grow at least 3 inches for the next 2 years.I have always grown about 2 inches every year.My doc says my height is difficult to determine and said i would be around 5’6-5’7 based by genetics and with a healthier diet i can grow taller what should i eat and drink?

Im only 12 and soon to be 13 and im about to slow down growing. Im not sure if i even had my growth spurt yet. But anyways im 4 ft 8in and i need some tips to grow taller!! plz help me
and i had my period like a few months ago and i heard that could really slow you down from growing
My mom is somewhere in 5 ft my dad i think he is near 6 ft. Dad side of the family: My grandma was really small & My grandpa is pretty tall i think as tall as my dad. My moms side her mom is as tall as her and her dad is a little smaller maybe because he slumps a lot.

I am SO tired of being short all the time (I’m really short for my age) and everyone else seems to be growing faster than me, even the people who used to be really short. Is there any possible way to grow faster, or is it just based on genetics?
i hope i get a growth spurt this year…

I’ve read many articles and stuff about "grow taller just by our stretching program!" and I don’t think that it helps. So, what are other ways for us to grow taller NATURALLY while we are still in the growing age (P.S: I’m 12 and a half ^^). And please don’t give me tips about how to appear taller, I want to GROW taller.
I also am a girl,if that helps you know that I already went through a growth spurt.And I’m 5’7 now but I want to be 5’9.

im a guy, 16 and 2 months old…. rite now i am 5’2 (barely 5’4 with shoes on), my dad is 5’7 and my mom was barely 5’0

how can i get taller naturally??? is there another growth spurt in my future?? the most i ever grew in one year was 4 inches back when i was 13… this year i grew another inch, and the year b4 that i grew 1 inch

i play basketball a lot and people say that helps since ur jumping, and i also stretch alot???

One’s height might usually depend on their genes, but I know that lifestyle choices can affect one’s growth spurt as well. Besides the whole general balanced diet with fruits and veggies and exercising certain amount of time per week, are there specific exercises/stretches one can do to help them grow? What are they and how would they help? (If you know any sources to back it up, it will be greatly appreciated). How daily do you have to do these exercises/stretches in order for them to be effective in aiding one’s growth? 10 points for best, thorough answer!! Thanks in advance.

IKnow- Do you by any chance know at what age most people stop growing (esp for females)?

Hi, I’m 14 and I’m only 5 feet (153 centimetres) and I desperately want to grow taller. I think one of the main problems with me is because I have a slouched back most of the time… I try to stand straight but naturally, I don’t so would that cause me to not grow properly? And also, would it be too late for a 14 year old to start wanting to grow taller since my growth spurt is over?

And btw, don’t suggest me to go swimming, because I suck at it and hate getting chlorine in my hair so what other activities would be good?

because im 13 and i got my first period about 2 months ago and i am 5"5. and i really want to be taller then 5"8. i had a growth spurt when i was 10-12 i grew about 7 inches then. but everyone haas been saying after you get your period you stop growing and i want to be a lot taller. and do you have any tips with growing taller naturally?

it sucks i’ve been short my whole life.
i remember in kindergarten that the teachers told me i was the shortest kid, so then i cried and i just think it was cruel for them to hurt my self estem like that it sucks i just turned 15 i’m only 5’4" and i preety sure i din’t hit my growth spurt yet. and i’m just wondering if there is a good chance of me growing a couple of inches beause i can’t stand being small any more . and if i don’t grow anymore is there a surgery that can ake my legs longer. i thought i saw something on this show once.
if you could tell me of a way i could grow taller through diet or exercise i would be very greatful
