Most females stop growing at 18. Unless you started puberty late you are more than likely done. DNA determines your growth. Exercise and eating right will help keep your muslces and bones strong so your posture doesn't suffer
You are probably as tall as you are going to get. Those things are determined by genetics and you can't do much about that.
I don't think there's anything you can do if you already stopped growing except - wear heeled shoes/boots and wear clothes that make you appear taller. Sorry.
Nope that's is sweetie
You're fine the way you are. Don't even think about it.
no
Eat your vegetables.
i read somewhere that masturbating 6x a day will help a lot...try it, it won't hurt...
if you're short, your short. that's life.
No. You most likely will not grow any more. you were meant to be short, just get over it sorry.
No you are done, that is average height for a girl
AVOID BEING SHORT
tie your limbs to horses and make them walk in opposite directions. That's how I got taller.
No!
You are a product of millions of years of dna coding that has enabled your body to reach only a sustandard height.
don't worry about it, why would you want to change yourself?, you should be happy the way you are.
1)dig a hole
2)get in said hole
3)cover self with dirt making sure to keep head above ground level
4)have trusted friend pour fertilizer on your head
5)have same trusted friend water you daily
6)hurry up and wait
You may still grow a couple of centimeters if you are lucky, it will be minimal though. It is all in the family genes. High heels will help you feel taller. 5"4 is not bad consider yourself lucky.
Drink MILK EAT CARROTS!!
or get the operation were they cut ur leg bone and then they put a spacer in the gap between the bone and then the bone grows in between
I'm afarid genes will out.We get what we get and have to make the best of it.
Height is determined by genetics. The only way to force yourself to grow is a teeeeeeribly painful process in which basically doctors break your bones and your legs are in these huge metal contraptions for 6 months to a year, and you have to tighten the pins every day to stretch the broken pieces of bone further apart so the new bone fills in the gap.
Buy tall shoes
you may ahve one or 2 more growth suprts but once your growth plates fuse witch is around 19 or 20 your done. there is no drug or steroid that can help you to grow taller at your age. Human growth Hormone thepary is being used in short or under average children the thepry has to start when the child is 9 or 10 years old and costs thousands of dollars a year if not per month becasue it requires every day injections for extended perionds of time and is not covered by insurance companies.
not really well u can take dance and stretch alot i grew a few inches when i started doing dance but i was 5 but i hope this helps
In high school I wanted to be tall. Now I wish I was 5'4"! You probably wont grow much more. Women stop growing arond 20 men at 18.
you have lack of sleep when you're a child. masturbate 3x a day.
You could still grow a little tiny bit taller but doubtful. You know, there are a lot of things that you can do to change your image but growing taller or shorter is not one of them. You can cut/grow/dye your hair. You can tan or not. You can wear makeup or not. You can grow and paint your nails. You can change the color of your eyes with contacts. I'm sure you have something about you that is fantastic. Focus on that and play it up. I'm as equally sure that you are just the way God intended you to be.
At this point, the only thing you can do is stretch everyday to make sure you don't shrink over time...However, I did know someone who laid on his back for 3 days straight to gain 3 inches to qualify for the wrestling team...
Well, since you are 17, now, it's up to genetics. You will not stop growing till around 25. But in term of height, around 20.
Look at your family, is your mother tall? How about your father? and your family in general?
You will still grow, probably 2 more inches.
Just eat a good diet, stay active, and sleep well.
Only time will tell. Just enjoy life. = )
no scientis say you don't stop growing until you are around 21
eat vegetables while having two extremely tough guys pulling at ur arms and legs.......hahaha im sorry but since ur almost 18 u probably won't grow any more.but u can check out some pills that help u grow.i don't know if they'll work it but,if u really want then give it a shot :) also, try asking ur doctor for help....oh and don't worry, a lot of guys like short girls :)
and also, it really depends on the person. not everyone stops growing at 18. u may have another growth spurt
i send my best wishes though!!
hang from a swing set like bobby brady.
