I REALLY want to be TALLER---------BUT how??!


Question: Hi all,

Basically; I'm 15 and 4'11 and a lot smaller than the rest of my friends. Especially when I'm wearing converses.

I want to know whether theres any tablets I can take to help me grow a few inches or something that I can put in my shoes thats not noticable?
[I'd love to be a few inches taller without having to wear heels because then its still noticable how short I am]

Thankees =]
Much appreciated.

You look cute in the side picture there and really if you have a good personality that'll be all that matters.
There is human growth hormones which some doctors prescribe in a persons earlier years, but it's a bit too late for that now.
Honestly, your height doesn't matter. I've always been shorter than all of my friends (years of gymnastics screwed me when it came to growing upwards!) and at the end of the day it's never mattered to them. They may give me a little crap about it here and there, but I just laugh at it because I know it's just them screwing around with me like I do with them on other things.
I'm 21 now and JUST hit 5'6, one of the girls I know whom is 18 is 4'11, another who is turning 21 in 5 months just hit 5'0 a few months ago. There is the possibility that you'll still grow naturally and hit over 5'0. It's funny though I remember just last year looking into anything that could ACTUALLY potentially make me taller, there are many pills that you'll find and many "exercises" that you'll read about it, but at the end of the day, none of them will work; and you'd still be the exact same person you are now if you were a little taller.
And most importantly, don't let being short determine the type of person you are. There are plenty of very successful, intelligent people who are doing just great.

theres nothing you can do hun, just drow on some hills

WHAT!! There is no miracle pill that will make you taller! HA lol. You are as tall as you get, there is no way to get taller.

Nothing will make you taller except a pair of high heals, which I recommend.

It's all in the Genetics and Platform shoes, sweetheart.

You are only 15. You will grow a couple more inches.

There arent pills to make you taller.

You are going to be fairly short the rest of your life. I would say at tallest you will be 5'1.

come on, i am 16 (done growing) and 4 feet 10 inches. dnt worry! just cause practically every guy/ person i know thinks i am 13 doesn't matter!

sides, guys like cute, short girls ^_~


sides, we're not short, we're just vertically challenged! XD

Your a girl you don't need to be worried about that... BUt men do..

Sorry. But there's nothing you can really do about that but wait it out. You're only 15 so you still may grow a little bit more. But for now, try wearing heels with longer pants so people wouldn't be able to see the heel.

I'm sorry but its all genetics and you cant do anything about it.Sorry to say

hey
i wont to be smaller
i hate been tall
just think the clothes and shoes are cheaper
and you can (if you look younger) get on buses cheaper
lmao

I dont think there is anything that you can do. Just enjoy being petite! you are probably still growing so you may get a couple of extra inches in the next few years

the best things come in small packages honey

i wouldn't believe anything that told you it will make you grow taller. yoga could make you grow maybe an inch or an inch and a half. drink milk/take calcium supplements. stretching/yoga on a daily basis might really help. i was doing yoga for about a month, 5 days a week, people thought i looked taller and leaner...

oh you poor thing, well I am 4'11 too and 30 years old so I am a lot smaller then my friends too but I love being short and growing up the boys loved it too cause they don't want to be with some tall girl, women should be short and cute :), learn to love yourself for the way you are. And there is no special pill to make you taller, however, you can wear high healed shoes, but seriously enjoy it, it's a heck of a lot better then being a tall bean pole girl. I love being short. :D

dont worry im sure your perfect the way you are.

milk

you're only 15 you'll grow just be patient, and even if it is only a couple of inches there really is nothing you can do the tables your talking about are not FDA approved and can have some horrible side effects. so embrace your petite-ness (if that is a word). that really is the best thing you can do.

There is an operation where the doctors snap the bones in your legs and put them in vices to keep them apart.New bone grows between them and fuses together adding about 4" to your legs.ouch.

You're probably not going to grow anymore. If you're lucky you may grow a tiny bit more by the age 19.

Don't take any pills claiming to make you taller... there's no such thing and would be a waste of your health and money.

There is an operation you can have to make you taller. They break your legs in 2 places and put pins through your legs. As your bones start to heal you twist the pins longer and longer so your legs grow longer as the bones heal. It is unknown how this can affect the bones in the long term. Plus it is a VERY painful procedure.

I am short, guys kind of like it, they call you petite and stuff which is nice. Some girls have a growth spirt later on, some don't. But increasing the likelyhood that you will? - Get lots of exercise (oxygen increases growth) avoid smoke like the plague and eat well.

I'm 15 and about 6'3, don't mess with any pills. What I would do, is take vitamins, stretch every morning, and take 1-2 cups of milk everyday. It does well for me.

Perfect posture is the only way to go ... seriously, if you work on your posture it will help you be slightly taller, and make you look and feel taller than you actually are.
Can't think of anything else, but as you are 15, sports and exercises that lengthen your muscles might just add an extra inch as you have some growing left to do still!
Swimming and yoga? Yeah, kind of boring ... but a lot of stretching anyway!
Good luck!

You might not be finished growing. It is possible you will get a little taller.
You can dress certain ways to look taller. Same color tops and bottoms make you look taller, and I am sure there are other tips you could find in fashion tips.
You don't have to wear heels, just carry yourself proud and work on what you have, not what you can't fix.
Hairstyles also make a difference in looking taller.
Save your heels for special occasions.

Don't worry about being small! I was about the same size when I was 15, I'm 16 now and I'm 5'4!
And a simple change of shoes can help too, I wear Etnies and they make me look taller. :)

do a handstand by the wall everyday, no just kidding. There is nothing you can do but wear high heels. I have a pair which makes me look a lot taller and i wear pants that pretty much covers the high heel. and no one notice except for close friends.

Sorry but you are out of luck, your maximum height was determined at the point of conception by your genetics. Disease, injury, toxins and malnutrition can reduce your height, but nothing can increase it.

( You can't increase your penis, breast or shoe size either!)

Go to Doctor and see or nutritionist! Eat lots but healthy....work out. There are machines you can hang upside down and trampolines might help.....but,there is no scientific evidence....Short women are cool ...I had two GF's below 5'.....you have a few more years to grow...

I was 4'11 at 15 and now I'm 6"......don't worry about it...it will help if you did some stretching exercises (Yoga)

i dont think theres any bone growing tablets but maybe bone strenghthening tablets

u might have a big growth spirt.

or their is one way but its extremely expensive, time consuming and painful. u can get ur fibula, tibia and femur sawed in half horizontally, then over a period of one to two years the bone will heal itself growing thicker, stronger and longer. it might not be the best way to solve ur problem so i wuld say to wait like a few years cuz ur stil young. like i said b4 u might get a huge growth spurt and end up being taller than ur friends.

drinking milk says it helps to be taller...you will be fine ..u can be 5' 2 most beautiful dancer women on TV are that size! don't drink alcohol as that will not help u to grow all the contrary
