How can i increase my height some please help me????? i'm at the age og 20 but my height is just 5'3''?

Answer 1

There are numbers of reasons why a person is not tall, and most of them do not

have any effective treatment.

Probably the commonest cause is genetic, that is to say that one or

both your parents are below average height, or that short stature runs

in your family. There is really nothing that can be done about this.

The other cause that most people know about is a deficiency of growth

hormone, which is produced by the pituitary gland situated at the base

of the brain. If a deficiency of this hormone is discovered early

enough in life, it is sometimes possible to give treatment with

injections of growth hormone to increase height. However, by the time

you get to 17 years of age, your bones may not respond to the effect

of the hormone. The only way to find out if you have this condition is

to discuss it with your doctor. Blood tests an X-rays to see how your

bones are growing can usually make the diagnosis, but for treatment

you would need referral to a specialist. These investigations should

also show if there is any other cause for your short stature.

But you should not think that it will definitely help you. Medical

science can not make you the way you want to be - and it is true not

only for height - so it's better to accept yourself as you are. Tall

people are not necessary happier than short people - look at the

tallest man in Ukraine, who was stripped of his title, lives alone

with his mother, and has constant legs pain!

The exercises they advertise on-line may increase your height

temporarily for 0,5 - 1 cm, it's hardly noticeable and does not worth

the trouble: your height varies during the day on its own.

Very occasionally, surgeons will try an operation to lengthen the

bones in the legs. This is very difficult, and takes many months or

even years, and a series of operations. It is a dreadful operation,

and I mentioned it only because you may have heard of it. Never

consider mutilating yourself for a miserable increase in height, and

be happy as you are.

Your growth plates dont fuse until around 22 or 23 so you still have time to add a few inches maybe but the only way will be through the use of growth hormone. The only thing is it takes a while and you're already so close to the age wear you cant get taller, even with growth hormone I doubt you would grow over 2 or 3 inches more before your growth plates fuse. See your doctor and ask him about growth hormone.

There is also a surgical procedure that can be performed that can help you gain up to 6 inches but it is very expensive. I provided a link below so you can read a bit about the surgery.

For adult men their top income stops at 18 years and for women 21. So for you because to procure in straightforward words an additional desirable 3 hundred and sixty 5 days left, which isn't a lot time, there is isn't gonna be any significant seen change. i'm sorry, yet imo 5'2 is very gorgeous top :)

Answer 4

Our growth depends upon the genes available in our body. Normally, people start taking medicines for this. Medicines increases the no. of genes in our body.. Usually, you'll see the people who take such medicines have sideeffects like an increase in size of nose, rapid hairfall, big eyes.. Well, these kind of medicines aren't safe at all.

If seriously you want to increase your height start wake-up early in the morning and do jogging, hanging exercises.. You'll see a good result in yourself as you'll start following this. Never rely on such medicines.

Answer 5

Your height is genetically determined. As long as you are in good health and eat properly, you'll reach your genetic height. However, you can't go beyond that.



You may grow very slightly over the next few years, especially if you are male, but chances are that you are at or very close to your final height now.

Answer 6

To reach your potential height you need adequate sleep (from 8-10 hours per night), adequate calories and a normal healthy diet.



Plenty of protein from eggs, meat, poultry, sea food and dairy products helps as well as calcium from milk, cheese and other dairy products. You also need plenty of zinc from red meat, oysters, mussels, nuts and seeds and zinc fortified cereals such as Weetbix.



Girls usually stop growing at 15 and in most cases any further height growth from 15-21 is insignificant but there are exceptions such as late bloomers.



Guys usually stop growing at 18 and in most cases any further height growth from 18-25 is insignificant but there are exceptions such as late bloomers.



Under eating and under sleeping can, to some extent, stunt your height growth. Exercise does not help your height growth and smoking can actually reduce your potential height by a whole inch. Too much junk sugar can reduce your HGH level as in item 40 in http://www.rheumatic.org/sugar.htm
