How can I grow taller at 14?

Patient's Query

I am 14 year old and how can I grow bigger

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

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.

Hight issue I m only 5 ft

Female | 21

It's common for people to have concerns about their height. You are 5 feet tall, according to your description. Possible causes of being short may include genetic factors, lack of essential nourishment, or such health problems as underdevelopment of individual organs. If you are in doubt about your condition, a visit to a healthcare provider could be quite enlightening. They may give you individualized advice and recommend, among other things, a dietary alteration or some further exploration.

Male | 14

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.

Sir I am 18 years old. My height is increased but my weight is not increase. I am the thinnest boy of my village. I eat lot of food but my weight is not increase what should I do

Male | 18

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.

Getting your height up to 170cm is not an easy process. Genetics is the main factor in determining human height. Following a healthy diet, enough rest if possible, and regular exercise are the ways of helping you to reach your genetic height potential.

What is the good weight to maintain when my height is 5"11' ?

Male | 25

Keep a weight of 63 to 83 kilos if you are 5"11' tall. Health issues are likely to crop up when a person is outside of this range. Use of excess weight may be the reason for tiredness, joint pain, and high blood pressure. Causes could be less exercise and bad dietary choices. To the point, the good way is to eat a balanced diet and exercise regularly to be able to stay within the healthy weight range.

আমার নাম অভি আমার বাবার উচ্চতা ৫.৭ আমার বয়স ১৬ বছর ১০ মাস আমার বর্তমান উচ্চতা ৫.৬ । আমি আর ও ৩ ইঞ্চি লম্বা হতে চাই আমার কি করা উচিত ? আমি কি আর লম্বা হতে পারবো?

পুরুষ | ১৬ বছর ১১মাস

At 16 years old, you are still in a phase of growth and development. It's common for individuals to continue growing until their early 20s. Your current height of 5.6 feet is close to your father's height of 5.7 feet, which suggests you may still have some growth potential left. To support your growth, make sure you have a balanced diet rich in nutrients like protein, calcium, and vitamins. Regular exercise, plenty of sleep, and avoiding habits like smoking can also positively impact your growth. Remember, everyone's growth process is unique, so it's important to focus on being healthy rather than just getting taller.

Hight groth is slow is hight is is not good

Male | 11

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 19 years old and I am just 4'9 feet I want grow my height more 4 inches can u tell how I can reach 4 inches plzzz

Female | 19

At 19 and 4'9, you can still grow some as your body is still developing. Genetics are the main factor in the height of a person, thus, if your parents are short, you will, too. Consuming a balanced diet containing calcium and protein can promote the proper development of bones. Besides good postures, and activities like stretching and yoga, physical exercise can also aid the proper development of your bone length.
