Im 17M , and im 174.5 cms tall
My dad is 184 cms , it makes me sad everyday that hes taller than me , and my mom is 162 cms
Seeing my growth plates the doctor told i have max 3-5 cms left and idk how to increase my height from here
If y'all have any suggestions please give them to me
Does moderate weight for exercises like overhead press , deadlift or barbell squats stunt growth ? as it looks like it compresses the spine or does it have no effect on height. let me know ur thoughts on this
Am 15yo 171 i wish to be 183cm is thare any chance?

Ok now this might sound like I am pulling your leg or something cause genuinely, I don't even know how this happened. So, in the last 8 to 9 months, I have grown like 7 inches? I don't know this is crazy cause I had stopped growing at around 13 or 14. Also, I haven't had a change in height for like a few weeks now so I don't know if I am done growing ok?
But just for context,
I just need someone to tell me what is happening. Feel free to ask me any question.
Does anyone think I can achieve 5'9 or 5'10 like maybe till next 2-3 years. I know growth spurt stops at 20-21 but there are some cases where they increased 2-3 inches at 23-24 yo. That's why I'm asking. Any solution to increase height. 👉👈???
Hello
I’m 15 years olds and 7 months I am currently sitting at 5,11 with parents dad 6 foot and mother 5,10 I have not grown in the past 5 months at least
I started puberty normal to early time and brother stopped growing at 16 at 6,1
Any thoughts on why I am not growing
I am 17 and 5'10 and have grown almost 2 inches since last year March . am i done or can I still grow taller ? is 5'11 or above possible ?what would be the most likely height to end up as ?
I’m 167cm, I turn 18 in one month, about 8 months ago I checked my bone age at the doctors and I had a bone age of 15 years an 11 months, not sure how much that aged within 8 months, so let’s say my bone age is about 16.5 (if that’s how it works idk lol) my thing is that between the ages of 12-14 I had very little exercise and barely drank any milk, I was just wondering if it’s still possible to grow any taller? I started going to the gym a lot more recently, started eating a lot more protein too. Any advice appreciated!! (I want to be at least 2 inches taller, but if that’s not possible it really isn’t the end of the world lol) Edit: I hit puberty rather late, I have very little facial hair, maybe a strand or two on my beard, I hit puberty at 15 ish(this is when I started seeing the first ever signs) and was basically the only kid in my class without facial hair my whole life lol) edit #2: I realized I wrote my height is 176, im 167
im 17 and 2 months
my dad is 173
mom is 165
im 178-179 in mornings now
2023 dec- on that photo i stand next to my 170cm friend i was the same height or shorter
2025 dec- 177cm in morning height
can u predict my height
btw my old bro is around 183-184 cm he is 21
So I'm 15 and 4'11. Always been shorter than my peers, so I've been thinking about it for a little while. My dad though, really wants me to grow in height, so I've tried pills and gummies that just didn't work. I think he's getting a little frustrated, especially since I'm fifteen now. He's been researching about this whole growth hormone therapy thing and I can't say I'm not a little nervous if we decide to really go through with it. I mean, yeah, i really want to do it, but at the same time i've read about side effects and stuff growing in the wrong places and stuff and it's getting me a little scared. Is there anything I should know about it? As far as i know It's gonna be a shot every month or something. I hope it's not too late for me. Thanks.
Hello,
I (M)'m currently 24 and I have been depressed my whole life about my stature (5'2) and my really small features (hands,feet,head..). Would it seem plausible for me to get them to grow bigger via GH ?
I’m 6’2” at 14, my dad is 6’1”, my mum is 5’4”, I’m pretty slender and mostly legs, I have noticeable leg hair and starting facial hair, no chest hair
I’m 16 and 5’8. My dad is 6’0 and my mom is 5’7. I haven’t gone through a growth spurt in noticeably long like years, I am eating and sleeping and exercising but I just don’t think I’m growing.
Im 13.5 started puberty at 12 and i have a mustache its visible but not extreme like an adult i also have pretty noticeable leg hair, etc basically body hair and i’ve noticed a few beard hairs coming in, my dad is very hairy so it might be genetic otherwise in curious because this body hair is making me think im done growing, at 12 i was about 169 and at 10 yrs old i was 155-160
I’m 30 and about 176 cm. I know most people say height is fixed after growth plates close.
But I still see mixed claims online, so I’m trying to understand what’s actually real.
From what I’ve read:
Posture work can make you look a bit taller, but I’m not sure if it’s permanent
HGH / IGF-1 doesn’t seem to increase height in adults
I’ve seen claims about things like “microfractures” or bone stress methods, but that sounds doubtful
Stretching/hanging seems to only give temporary changes
So my question is basically:
Is there anything non-surgical that actually gives permanent height increase in adults, even small amounts? Or is it all just posture and measurement differences?
I’m a 16 years 11 months male, turning 17 in June. Current stats:
Height: ~165 cm (5’5”)
Weight: 90 kg (was 96 kg, dropped to 90 kg in 3 weeks)
Family height:
Father: 5’10
Mother: 5’2
Brother: 5’10
Main concern
I’ve had very slow growth all my life and basically no height increase in the last ~2 years. I’m worried I may have missed my growth spurt, but I’m not sure.
My goal is 5’10, but I want to know if that’s even realistic anymore.
Recent lifestyle changes (only last 2–3 weeks)
Started gym (3 weeks, consistent, enjoying it)
Started calorie deficit (recently)
Weight loss: 96 kg → 90 kg in ~3 weeks
Sleep fixed recently: 10–11 pm to 8:30 am (8–9 hours)
Current diet
3 dates
Black coffee
Bowl of watermelon
2 egg omelette (low oil, cheese)
3 small minimal-oil patties (protein source)
Bran bun
3 cups low-fat milk
All vitamin tablet as supplement
What I’m trying to do
Cut down to ~65 kg
Stay consistent with gym
Improve sleep and lifestyle for growth and health
Questions
Is there still any realistic chance of further height growth at this age?
Can weight loss + gym + proper sleep still trigger a late growth spurt if I’m a late bloomer?
Should I get a bone age scan or any hormonal tests to know where I stand?
Is my current diet enough to support growth + gym or am I missing something important?
Looking for honest, straightforward answers.
