can anyone help me??
Answers:
theres not much you can do to grow. there's nothing you can eat or drink to make you grow. however, one of my friends was also very short and she is now gets a shot in her lower back once a month to make her taller. she's been taking them for about a year and has grown 2 1/2 inches. the shots do work but u need 2 talk to a good doctor about it
Drink a lot of milk. Calcium helps out your bones.
Also, play sports like basketball or volleyball, where you have to jump a lot. That helps out your leg bones too.
Get alot of sun. It makes you taller, be outside, as much as possible.
you can't do something if it's in the genes already.. try to check your family history..
You could still have a growth spurt at your age...eat right and exercise and if you don't get any taller, so what? Petite girls are very beautiful...
i want to get shorter :]!!
wHY WHY DO U WANT TO GROW DID U KNOW SHORT PEOPLE CAN DO MORE THEN TALL PEOPLE AT LIST WE DONT NEED TO BEND DOWN WHEN WE GO TO A KIDS PARTY DONT U THINK U SEE IM 5/O AND IM 51 NOW I AM SHORT BUT THAT DONT BOTHER ME FOR I CAN GET UNDER THINGS BUT OTHER S CAN LOL NOW DONT HURRY ON YOUR GROTH YOU WILL GROW K TAKE CARE
there is nothing you can eat , drink , or do to be taller it is all genetics if you are going to be short there is nothing you can do about it except just be happy with your self and live life to the fullest , you dont have to be tall to be beautiful or fun or smart so just be yourself
I know your pain I am 4'11.5" Sadly there is no way you can get growing w/o breaking your legs and arms and putting metal rods inside them and I don't think you want to do that. I thought about it. That road is several years of operations and you have to relearn to walk and do things for your self.
Although I have heard there are several advantages to being short. None of which I believe.
Look at it this way you could be shorter!
Your only 16 you actually keep growing up until the age of 25 (most people think its 18 but that is a fallacy)and if you don't grow dont sweat it as I'll let you in on a secret Guys LOVE short chicks. Seriously I have to beat them off with a stick. Makes them feel manly
Try a Yahoo search for "grow taller naturally" but please beware of scams.
