By the age of 21, your bones have mostly finished developing, and your height is largely determined by genetics. At this point, increasing your height further is unlikely. However, maintaining a balanced diet, regular exercise and sufficient sleep can help you reach your maximum potential height.

Being e­xtremely thin at 29 years old might worry you. Your fast me­tabolism could burn calories quickly. Or, you may not consume enough food. He­alth problems can also affect weight. To gain pounds, e­at calorie-rich foods like nuts, avocados, nut butter. Work with a nutritionist. The­y'll make a meal plan just for gaining weight. We­ight gain needs to happen slowly and he­althily.

At 23 years old, it's unlikely you'll see a significant height increase since growth plates generally close after puberty. You should consult an endocrinologist to discuss any potential growth issues. Additionally, focusing on a balanced diet, regular exercise, and good posture may help you make the most of your height.

Is my height growth during puberty normal at 14?

Hi doctor i am A 14 year old male who is confused about he’s going through puberty or not basically my father is 3 inches shorter than I am already and I am 14. My puberty started when I was around 12 and that age I was about the same as as my father, so I am confused that maybe my height has stopped growing and might might stop and I might have grown like maybe one centimeter in the past few months so I’m confused about my height growth. I’m currently 5 foot 10 and my father is 5 foot seven so when is my puberty going to end? Experienced about armpit hair three months ago and they are growinf very slowly like 1cm in 3 months and only some hair war 1cm and some were even half cm small facial hair little bit here on my chin about three months ago, and it isn’t growing at all since that time.

It's normal to feel confused about growth during puberty. Since you're 14 and already taller than your father, your height can still increase as puberty continues into late teens. The slow growth of armpit and facial hair is also normal. For personalized advice, I recommend visiting an endocrinologist, who specializes in growth and puberty-related issues.

It is quite normal to stop growing in height after your teenage years. Most people have usually reached full growth by the time they are twenty years old. Some rare cases may continue to produce growth hormones and grow taller even as adults. Still, this happens very infrequently. If you are worried about being too short, talk to a doctor who can help you understand better what is going on.

How can I safely grow taller at 16?

I am 16 year old I am only 5.1 inch I want to increase my height so please tell me medicine for height growth which have no side effects

Beginning 16 years old and 5.1 inches high, it's a common desire to want to grow more. It is mostly an inherited trait to a large extent, and therefore you don't require any special drugs to fix the problem of short height. Having a balanced diet, getting enough sleep, and exercising regularly can support growth. To repeat, one needs to remember that adolescents grow at different rates.

If you eat a lot but still can’t gain weight, maybe you have a high metabolism. But sometimes hyperthyroidism or other medical conditions can do that too. You should see a doctor to find out what’s going on. Then they can give you some advice and help with that.

One reason for your challenges in gaining weight might be a high metabolism, stress, a bad diet, or a health issue. It is ideal to visit a doctor to determine the root of the problem. They will suggest a dietitian, who would be able to help you find ways to consume healthy foods that will help you in increasing your weight on a gradual basis. Medicines are generally not recommended for weight maintenance. Rather than only thinking about weight goals, concentrate on the intake of fruit, vegetables, whole grains, and protein which contribute to weight strengthening and may enhance it. Lean gaining should be looked at from a healthy perspective, and the best way forward is the help of health professionals.

The thing is though that how tall we become mainly depends on the genes we inherit from our parents. If you are still young and growing, it may be possible for you to maximize your height by ensuring that you sleep well, and eat foods rich in calcium and proteins while also doing exercises regularly.

Yes, of course, losing the weight you want is possible but the method that you are going to use is not the best idea. Underweight can be attributed to various factors such as high metabolism, an imbalanced diet, and certain diseases. For instead, replace your present food habits with the food items such as fruits, vegetables, lean meat, and whole grains. Also, don't forget about physical activity: it is also a good way to put on muscles. If any ambiguities arise do not hesitate to consult the dietitian to receive the exclusive instructions for your case.

It's completely normal for people to be shorter or taller than their parents. Several things, including genetics and nutrition, can affect how tall someone is. Eat well, sleep enough, and keep moving. Unfortunately, there's no quick fix, but looking after yourself may help you achieve your maximum potential height.

Hello! It seems you’re worried about how tall you will get and when puberty will end. It’s natural to feel insecure. Puberty normally stops around 18 for boys when they’ve had all the major growth spurts that can make them taller than ever before. If you’ve only started noticing yourself growing in height lately then this might mean your body is still changing because of puberty. Keep eating well, sleeping enough and exercising so your growth can be supported!

At 117 pounds, 6 fee­t tall, your weight seems low. Eating balanced me­als - fruits, veggies, proteins - he­lps. Exercise like walking, and playing a sport also boosts he­alth too. If concerned, talk to a dietitian or doctor.
