Hello,I'm a 19 year old male.I've been doing martial arts, b-ball,football since i was 12.I have a fit body but my height just doesn't go anymore than 5.5 ft.. Normally I don't care much about it,but my girlfriend always teases me about my height. (Considering she's no better than me,she's only 5 ft!)
So..If anyone here knows a way,please tell me.I know i don't have much chance left,but well,better ask than nothing at all..

You can't do anything about how tall you'll be. It is determined by genetics. One the plus side, men often continue to grow while in their late teens. You may still have a couple of inches left to go. As for your girlfriend... what the he!! is up with that? You really need to think about the people you pick to date. Someone who gets their kicks by saying hurtful things to the people they are supposed to care about usually end up being spouses who say hurtful things to the people they're supposed to care about.

By 19, your growing days are pretty much over. The best you could do would involve painful surgery that would only give you may another 6'', and get you up to 6' tall. They usually only do that for "little people" and guys like Gary Coleman.

At your age you won't be growing much more. You Will continue to grow and maybe gain a few centimeters till 25.

In my opinion they just were those sports to get worst the situation in your case. During infancy and puberty you just needed different sports and exercises and maybe some hormonal treatment.
At your age there's no way!
It's too late!

Just let her know that she is still looking up at you and when it is the other way around then there would be a problem
