Why won't I grow? Please help?!


Question: Why won't I grow? Please help?
I'm 13 and I'm 5'1 and my hair is about shoulder length. I have been that height since I was 10 and my hair hasn't grown at all since I was ten. Why can't I grow? Why can't my hair grow? Everyone makes fun of me for being short which I don't mind because short people rule, but I still find this strange. Thanks!

You're lucky! I'm 16 and I'm 4'10. I guess it's in the genes.



have you started your period yet? Cause if you have then you'll probably stay around that height, maybe grow a few inches more but you'll probably be the same height. If you haven't then once you do, you will grow really fast! My friend used to be 5'1" shorter than me, and then she started her period and now she's 5'6"! Because her dad is really tall and it is in her genetics.



that is kind of odd, about your hair. they make vitamins for that tho, I take them and they've really made my hair grow a lot faster (: maybe you've got bad split ends, hair can grow super slowly like that.

as for being fun-sized, you're still young, you might still grow (:
or not, but who cares?



Well if your hair isn't growing then your body is lacking water. And you just might be short. I am your height and I'm 13. But if you had any eating disorders that could be the answers. Try going to the gynocologeist.



it takes time to grow. Or u might be like my music teacher who is 5'1 since 5th grade :(
