I'm feeling REALLY down right now about my height–I'm only 5"0?



Recently I've been feeling really miserable about my height. I'm 5"0 at 15.
I'm Indian so that's not THAT short I guess, but I just wish I was like 5"4-5"5. I think that 5"4-5"5 would be perfect because your not attempting to tower over the guys but you're also not very short.


I've been feeling so down about this. I don't think that I will grow much more either, I keep telling myself that if I stretch and eat healthy I MIGHT grow a few more inches, but idk what's the use, it probably won't work...

P.S. I've heard of Human Growth Hormone injections (I've heard they also come in pills), which I will talk to my Physician next time I see her. ;)
P.S.S. I weigh about 94 pounds.

  1. I hate to break it to you, but are your parents short? If so, there’s a good chance you will never be tall on your own. I say that you should be happy the way you are, but if you are desperate growth hormone ejections are the way to go.

  2. You are only 15 years old, so you have at least a year to grow. I suggest you to eat right, meaning high calcium meals. I also recommend you to go to bed exactly at 10 50, since growing hormones start from 11p.m to 1a.m. Oh by the way, it takes 7 minutes for you to fall asleep right when you go to bed
