I want to grow taller because I hate my height and I feel too short. I’m a 16 year old girl and my height is 5’1, I need to get to 5’10 or 6’0. on eBay I saw these pill to grow taller but I don’t trust anything that has to do with pills, so I’m not sure if I want to buy them. Everyone tells me that I won’t grow taller anymore, but I believe there is an answer out there. Please tell me what can make me taller. I would appreciate it very much! I don’t like being a short person and I don’t want to deal with it for the rest of my life. Also, I weight 259.2lbs and I know that it’s an obese weight for my height. Do you think losing weight with a diet and exercise will help me grow taller? Should I take pills to help me grow?

you might be done growing my friend… sorry, but I think it is time for you to stay the same height you are now for the rest of your life. The pills you saw on eBay is a TOTAL screwup, there’s no magical potion out there that will make you grow taller, you won’t grow taller if you lose weight you might feel better about yourself but you won’t grow taller.
you don’t it’s genetic. you will be about the same height as your mother +/-. unless your father was exceptional tall. i’m presuming your a girl.
At age 16 you are either done growing or might grow a little bit more over the next couple of years. Pills will do nothing. Your height depends on Genetics and your parents and grandparents heights are a good indicator of what might happen in your case.
I urge you to consult with a regular doctor regarding your weight and health.
Omg you too!? Ugh you and I both! You and I are the same height! The reason why I’m trying to get taller is because my boyfriend is 6’2 and so I feel like it’s kind of awkward! :0 lol!
As for growing taller, your maximum height is based on genetics. Your actual height is predicated on those genetics along with nutrition and the timing of that nutrition.
So go to your school nurse and ask for help with your nutrition. Your growth potential is almost gone.
The pills you saw on eBay are a scam, there’s no magical potion out there that will make you grow taller, you won’t grow taller if you lose weight you might feel better about yourself but you won’t grow taller.
you can get surgery where the basically break your legs and pull them down then have them heal like that. dont recommend it, just wear heels
sorry to say but the pills are fake. you should love your body including your height. but I cant judge because im 6’5 and I hate it. however if you want to be taller do a lot of yoga to stretch your body eat a lot of bananas (weird but works) and drink a lot of milk.
You can’t force your body to grow. It’s just the way you are. I’m 5’1 as well so I know the struggle haha but you still may grow an inch or two but you can’t make yourself grow with pills
