Question:

Could smoking have stuned my growth??

hi guys i'm very small for my age and many people think i'm like 2 and a half times less my age !!SERIOUSLY!! and i wanted to know if it could be that i grew up around lots of smokers and have a smoke once in a while. or if it's just me growing very slowly.


Answers:

Some people just grow smaller, I have 6 foot or more people in my family but I also has a hand full of family members that never made it to 5 foot.

thye have proving that smoking can cause growth to slow but to actactlly how much is unknown. The body dose most of it major growing to around pre to early teens. For someone to really prove how much smoking can cause they would have to have a large group of children smoking for years in a study group and I DON'T THINK THAT WILL HAPPEN. However some men comtinue to go in height till around late twentys but most of them are the tall men
