Being 160 cm is regular for lots of people. But if it concerns you, we can discuss it. Your height may contribute if you have physical troubles like backaches or joint issues. Remember, genes greatly influence how tall we grow. Eating nutritious foods, exercising regularly, and sleeping enough can help maximize your height potential. Seeing a doctor for a check-up can provide more clarity if you're worried.

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.

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.
