Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

Genetics play a big role in how tall we get. At 14 years old, you're actually right in the middle of your growth spurt, so there's still a good chance you'll grow more. On average, girls keep growing until around 16 years old, and boys until around 18. While there's no magic medicine to make you taller, eating a balanced diet, getting enough sleep, and staying active can help you reach your full height potential.

Height increasing capsules for increasing capsules

Female | 15

Capsules improving health are still not a thing. The fundamentals of the height physical variables are inherited from genes, most of them given by the parents. Nutrition, exercise, and sleep, on the other hand, can positively influence your growth potential. While eating a nutritious diet, exercising regularly, and getting enough sleep can be good factors of your full height potential.

how can i get longer in height i am 23 years old and i want to increase my height what can i do please help me

Male | 23

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.

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

Male | 16

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.

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.

Slower growth can be influenced by genetics, nutrition, or hormonal issues, and it’s essential to observe any other accompanying symptoms, like fatigue or changes in appetite. If you have concerns about height, a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals, regular exercise, and adequate sleep are crucial. It's always wise to connect with a healthcare professional to discuss these observations; they can provide reassurance and evaluate any underlying factors accurately.

I am 16 years old girl, my height is 4'9 how can i get taller? Any supplements or medicine suggestions? Please suggest one medicine because I have tried everything possible which can naturally make me taller..but it didn't really work

Female | 16

At 16, it's understandable to wish for a taller stature. Growth is influenced by genetics, nutrition, and overall health. While you might explore various options, it's vital to focus on a balanced diet rich in calcium, vitamin D, and protein, which support bone health. Unfortunately, there’s no specific medicine to guarantee an increase in height. I recommend consulting a healthcare professional who can guide you through personalized strategies and check your growth potential based on your unique situation.

It's important to understand that during adolescence, many experience growth spurts. To support this development, a well-balanced diet including carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins, and minerals is essential. Adequate sleep also plays a crucial role, as it is during this period that the body grows. Engaging in regular physical activity is equally important. By maintaining these practices, you may notice significant growth over time.
