Can I Grow Taller at 16 Naturally?
Patient's Query
aoa mam I'm 16 my height is 4 11 I want to increase it my mom dad height is good but I do exercise eating everything
Answered by Dr. Babita Goel
Genetics do play a big role in determining height, but there are other factors like nutrition and exercise that can also influence it. At your age, your bones are still growing, so maintaining a balanced diet rich in protein, calcium, and vitamins is crucial. Regular exercise, particularly activities like swimming, cycling, or basketball, can also support healthy growth. Remember, everyone grows at their own pace, so be patient with yourself. If you're worried, it's always a good idea to chat with your endocrinologist who can provide personalized advice.
