hi guys.i am a 15 year old Chinese from Singapore and i would like to ask you guys about my growth problem.Right now i am standing at 1.62m weigh 55kg,i find my height rather short for my age. I was 1.6m 3 years ago when i was in Secondary 1(now in Sec 3) and since then i havent been growing much, and this has come to my attention.Can anyone give advice on this?Why am i growing so little,and will i ever grow again?:crying: thanks in advance.
Re Hi, just like to know if yr parents r the same height as u? This is of the parents' gene which is pass down to us. there is a way to increase yr height. Do more jumping, like play basketball, skipping. this will help a bit. not so much. think yr growing age is abt to end soon, so u should start as early as possible to grow higher. Hope it helps. ceng
mmm. Probably you'll have growth spurts. I had a couple when I was 16... so don't worry!! If I get it, probably you might get it. (I do not gurantee!)
There's not much more you can do to grow other than the above mentioned by Cengsc. But if you are that desperate, try sleeping more and drinking 1 litre of milk everyday without fail. While you sleep you grow and you need lots of calcium and protein so milk is important. Exercise mroe too. Don't sleep late ( I know lots of youngsters like you do that even me ) Cheers
There isn't really a whole lot you can do besides eat and sleep right, stay away from heavy lifting. You are pretty much limited to your genes. Don't worry though, most men grow till they are 20-22! You have time
I stopped growing vertically about 21 :crying:. Average height. Ideally a little bit taller, but my family have always had short legs, so I didn't do too bad. Agree with others..eat, sleep, rest and plenty of exercise in between. After that you'll start to grow horizontally
well im 15 from singapore too almost sharing the same problem but recently i have been really down.when i was 12 i was 1.40.(recently checked my health booklet)however now im only around 1.64.can anyone tell me ahs my growth really ended??this problem has gotten kind of a little worst as i get older.i do have a expecience to share but i will have to leave it to later if all of you really want to hear it??but have i really finished my gowing stage.
I am abt 1.5 months away from 14 and i am 166, is that considered tall? i mean my friend is a freak, he grew from 174 to 178 from january to april
I wouldn't consider 1.66 tall. I am 13 and 1.75. Grew 20 cm from age 10 to 12. Tall for me is over 180.
I'm 13 (just going 14) and i'm 176cm tall! So no offence but that's quite small, tall for me is over 180cm
mmm... why do u want to be so tall anyway? lol~ I dont think height matters so much in badminton.. Look @ Hendrawan... short man that can leap in air and jump smash! BTW I'm 177 and I am 20 and happy about it
Guys, dun worry about ur height so much, everybody has different maturing stages in life. Since most of u guys r still in ur early teens, there is still alot of time to grow. I think males grow until 20 under the right conditions? not too sure, but dun worry about it, as long as u have a good night's sleep and get the right nutrients and exercise, u'll grow btw, i'm asian, 18(almost 19) and 181cm and have been since 14yrs old. so no growth since then, except in the horizontal
20cm in 2 years?? I grew only 36cm from 6 years old to now(14)! That's 8 years.. Lol. Say, I just realised that BF suddenly has quite a few members my age. Eddie Choong is 5'2" I believe. Anyway I don't really mind being short. Malaysian men are short afterall. *Hides from BF's Malaysian men*
